Jessica has become an eating machine. She really enjoys eating. Yesterday, she tried some new dishes. For lunch, I made her a quasi tomato soup with some sauteed tomatoes (peeled and seeded) and melted grated cheddar cheese. She had never had tomatoes before and she just ate it up. I hope she continues to like tomatoes (unlike her parents) as they are a good source of Vitamin A and C. For dinner, I made some “Sweet on You” Potato & Apple Puree and Jessica is still not a big fan of sweet potatoes. I thought it tasted pretty good. I’m going to keep trying since sweet potatoes are a good source of Vitamin A, Dietary Fiber, Vitamin C, Vitamin B6, Iron, Calcium. You can find great information about different vitamins and minerals and the food they’re in here.
Here’s a video of her enjoying some banana and pattypan squash pieces. I had boiled the squash and the banana was as is. It was taken July 1st.
I’m glad she likes tomatoes. Too bad you aren’t closer and I could give you some fresh ones out of my garden. My tomatoes and peppers are really good this year and I have an abundance of tomatoes. I like her diligent effort of eating out of the bowl!
Enjoyed watching her, she is such a cutie ! Glad she likes tomatoes. I love them. Jessica might like sweet potatoes with a tad of cinnamon. I didn’t know if you were adding anything to her food at this time, maybe later.
Love, Mom
Yeah, the sweet potato/apple puree had a touch of cinnamon and nutmeg.
I’m so behind on posts. Just now getting caught up. I liked the noises she was making. I think she was saying “MMMMMMMMMMMM, this is goooood”
