UPDATE: I started to make my own baby food!

OMG, it's not hard at all!

I have a food processor that I have not used in so long. So I started with sweet potatoes.

I baked a bunch and then scooped and pured. I saved some to eat yesturday and today and I froze the rest in ice cube trays and then will bag in zip locks.

They really do taste better than the jarred sw. pot.

I feel so much better giving DD this! And it's so much cheaper than jarred and I can give organic too!!!

Next I will make bananas and carrots!

I plan to buy a steamer next so I can keep as much vitamins in them as possible when cooking.

Thanks for the tips ladies!!!!

yes I looked at that website. Thank you!

I am pretty excited about this now that I saw how easy it is to make a ton. And I can give her things like alvocados (that don't come in jars) and such too.

Do you think it's too late for me to start this? I don't have a food processor (but I do have one of those little Cuisinart mini food preps). Is it worth it to get a food processor? How much longer will a 7 month old take pureed food? He would be eating table foods in no time, right?

Kailey is almost 7 months and I just plan to make it thicker as she tollerates it.

I don't think they start finger foods until 9 months. I could be wrong though.

I plan to make some squash next too.
