Breakfast.. porridge again! Made it super chunky again, seems to work best if I use half rice milk and half water. I didn't put grated apple in it this time, we were pushed for time. Ollie didn't seem to notice. We also had the end of our mango.. yum yum! Ollie really loves mango, and if it is nice and ripe, he can eat a fair bit.
Lunch was leftover meatballs and leftover cheese and lentil slice. And Feijoa! He really got into all of it and seemed to eat a fair bit! He liked the feijoa, and sucked out the juicy centre, and spat out the harder edge bit. He needed a bit of help to get it to his mouth though.
Stirfry for dinner. Ollie was so so tired (we really need to address his extreme tiredness at the end of the day! he won't have an afternoon nap, but struggles to make it to bedtime) but he still had a good go at his stirfry, particularly the beef!
All in all, a very successful food day!
In February 2011, we started our (nearly) six month old son on "solid" food. Rather than going down the Plunket route of food out of a Watties jar, we opted for a baby led approach. Assisted by a university study, we set out on our baby led journey!

No lunch!
Dinner.. stirfry! I wasn't my organised alter ego today so didn't have dinner ready to eat! This stirfry was yummy for us... but a bit too crunchy for Ollie - didn't let it cook for long enough. I think I'll try steaming his stirfry pieces while ours is in the wok - that way we can have crunchy and he can have squishable!

Lunch... banana, carrot muffin in town... Ollie was a bit distracted - given we were sitting on Lambton Quay - but he had a really good go at the muffin! ( I had sushi....)
Dinner... Stirfry! Ollie ate more courgette than he has ever! And did find the meat eventually. He has taken to eating his broccoli stalk end first... (then I realised that is how I eat it....) And of course carrot is always a winner. I don't think Ollie ate too much tonight, because he was having too much fun playing with... noodles! David and I often have noodles in our stirfry so tonight we gave Ollie some. He had a ball! (and a few noodles made their way into his mouth - miraculously!) He spent a lot of time holding a handful of long noodles up and swinging them. Rather messy, but oh so fun!
