From The Mouths Of Babes

Now that we have the Sprog used to eating some green things like his spirulina-infused oatmeal, we are moving on to others. Last night, with his sausage, chicken, and eggs, we gave him pureed spinach with cous-cous and his favorite hummus. (I know, we did hummus with quesadilla, and now we’re doing it with cous-cous – it’s early fusion cuisine.) It went down the gullet in no time.

He still loves blueberries, and today after breakfast (eggs, toast, blueberries and strawberries), I gave him a couple blueberries in a snack cup. He disappeared into his nursery and we heard soft babbling baby talk. Peering around the corner, we saw him feeding the blueberries to Woof-Woof, the stuffed dog he sleeps with every night. He was doing all the things we do to him, saying “Whee!” and “Yum yum!” as he pushed the berries into the sewed up mouth.

In more ways that one, from the mouths of babes.
