Breakfast - thicker porridge (again with grated apple)! Ollie was able to pick up with his hands and eat! We had to rush off to swimming so nothing else for breakfast.
Lunch was cheese and lentil slice. Recipe out of the baby led weaning cookbook, and I'd been meaning to try it for a while. It was sooo yummy! Ollie loved it too. I think I cooked it a little too long, because it was quite crumbly. Might try another egg, and less cooking time next time. We also had mango for lunch... yum yum!
Dinner was meatballs baked in the oven (they were more like meat sticks!) while David and I thought they were yummo.. Ollie was tooo tired by the time they cooled. He did have a good helping of beans, capsicum and broccoli though! There are some leftover, so I think we'll have them for lunch tomorrow.

We tried porridge today! Was very messy! But also very fun. I took a photo so it might turn up on the main blog. I think Oliver actually ate a fair bit of porridge! Eating with his fingers didn't work so well, he kept shaking his hand like he had poo stuck to it... So, I tried pre-loading a spoon and giving him that. He took off at that point, (with me helping raise the spoon a bit) but still has some way to go before he can handle a spoon prperly himself. I'll try making porridge thicker next time I think.
Lunch was pretty funny! We had tuna patties (with lemon and thyme). The texture and shape of the patties was perfect and Ollie really enjoyed munching on them. The funny part came when he would just open his mouth and let the chewed bit roll of his tongue. It was as if he all of a sudden didn't like it. But, he'd put the pattie back in his mouth, have another bite... and repeat! He thought it was pretty hilarious. We also had banana biscotti (high iron baby version) and Ollie loved it! I can see that is going to be a regular at lunchtime. (David and I think it is pretty yum too!)
Dinner was tofu sticks and steamed vege. Steamed vege was yum, but I wasn't a fan of the tofu! Apparently you can give it to them raw, but it seemed odd, so I lightly dusted in flour and pan fried. I prefer my tofu in curry. Ollie seemed relatively interested in it, but didn't eat a huge amount as it seemed too firm. There must be another way I can cook it.. perhaps oven bake?
