carrots

Mio has been eating rice cereal for a week now, and although it seemed for a couple days that she regressed in her eating skills, we tried making the cereal less runny and she has slowly been getting the hang of eating it. Since it’s been seven days, we introduced something new today — carrots! We were finally able to try the Beaba Babycook that our thoughtful friends Debbie,Â Mimi, Michelle, and Stephanie had pitched in together to give to us as a gift back in December.

Here are some photos of the Babycook in action!

scraping carrots down the sides — We stopped once to scrape some of the carrot pieces down the sides.

All done! — Carrot babyfood, ready for Mio to eat!

pouring extra puree to be frozen — We poured the extra babyfood into the Beaba multiportion freezer tray (sold separately) so we could freeze and store it for future feedings.

The Babycook was super easy to use, was very efficient, and kept mess and cleanup to a minimum. We’ve only used it once and we already love it. Babyfood-making couldn’t be easier with this amazing appliance, and we’re excited about all the other healthy, organic foods we’ll be able to feed Mio with its help! Thank you so much again to our awesome friends for getting it for us!

Such a bright color! — Mio's first time eating carrots!

carrot face! — You've got some carrot on your face, missy.

Mio made a bit of a mess on her face and bib in the process, but she ate it all up! What a good girl! We’re going to make sure you eat lots of veggies! 😀
