Sweet Potatoes... YUMMY!


This is Izzy's first experience with sweet potatoes.. Needless to say, she loved it!



She also got her second tooth this week and started wearing pampers cruisers today! I know the new diapers are not super exciting news for everyone, but to Luke and I, it's a little milestone. She's growing up so fast.

miss izzy looks so pumped about sweet potatoes...better than rice cereal, huh?

I can't believe how excited she is about sweet potatoes - so funny!

And you know, sweet potatoes are the easiest baby food to make yourself...and way cheaper. :-)

This is true! After she gets used to eating "real" food I think I'll try to make my own baby food. How do you make real sweet potatoe mash and get all the stringy parts mashed up?

I bought this great baby food grinder - But a blender works just fine too. You just bake your sweet potatoes about an hour or more (it doesn't matter, they just get smooshier with more time). I learned that if youput a little olive oil on the outside of them before you bake them the insides spill out so much easier. By the time they are done (and cooled of course) they almost are mashed already or you can run them through a blender and they freeze easily.
