Alexa eats real food now...and by real I mean puréed veggie mush. I have learned a few lessons in our first week of veggiedom.
Lesson #1: Babies are messy eaters. Even if you think you have a neat
eater on your hands check behind their ears and in their nose...somehow
food always ends up there!
Lesson #2: Be prepared! Having a washcloth in the drawer NEXT to the
high chair is not going to do anything for you when baby decides she
wants to eat sweet potatoes with her whole body. A wet washcloth ON the
high chair - now that's smart thinking!
Lesson #3: Orange veggies stain. Baby's wearing one of your favorite
outfits? You better strip her down to the diaper if you ever plan on
having her wear that outfit again! Every single bib, onesie and
washcloth we've used this week now has orange spots all over it.
Luckily, I immediately soaked the clothes so most of the stains came out
of the clothes and bibs...the washcloths, forget about it. (*note to
self - buying white washcloths for a baby, not your best idea ever.)
Stick baby in the high chair just in her diaper and bib...clean up is a
breeze!
