One of the new signals that my 2nd child is using is a "grrrrowl." He is at the stage when creamy, mushy baby food is simply annoying, and a filler at best. When the blended vegetables and fruits start to get tiresome during a meal, he begins to growl and turn his face from the spoon. What does this signal mean, do you ask? Well, he wants something more difficult, more challenging to gnaw on. He has a lot of nerve, as he does NOT have teeth. Asking for something more "toothy" means Mom has to find something acceptable that he won't choke on.
So there's bread, rice, soy soaked kashi, potatoes, la la la... All great things, but nothing compares to the ultimate saving grace -- Happy Baby Organic Puffs!
Seriously, folks. No joke. No endorsements. No pat on the back. I'm just happy to share my love of this wonderful baby snack that actually has vegetables in it! He can eat 'em up at every meal, in between mushy slushy bites of his regular baby food and remain happy. I've also dumped a few on his stroller tray to occupy him while I shop, and they are a great appetizer/distraction while we wait for our food in restaurants. I love these puffy things so much that I bought a carton of six on Amazon!So far I've found them at Target, Whole Foods, and online. No puffery here, I swear.
i want to squeeze him right now
ReplyDeleteAmelia has a sensitive gag reflex and still gags with table food... these puffs are a perfect training tool for a little girl that always wants 'big girl' food. They are teaching her how to control the food in her mouth. She loves them. I was so glad to see these an an option instead of the others that have more sugar etc. I love that they are organic and actually have some nutritional value. Thanks Nicelle!
