You can just put a couple spoon fulls in a small bowl, rinse them, and nuke for about 20 seconds. The kiddos loved rolling, squishing, and eating them. Great fun and great for you too. Nathan sometimes requests his still frozen! Can't quite figure that one out, but hey, he's eating veggies. frozen peas were a hit at our house.

Neither Emily nor Nathan ever took much to baby food. I threw away quite a few jars of baby food with only one bite missing before finally giving up. But despite never finishing a single jar of baby food, both kids are decent eaters now. They've even been known to ask for seconds on things like cauliflower and salad.

It gets better..some days anyways. Try broccoli. It was a definate hit for us. (Most of the time) Keep at it with the solids. It gets better..some days anyways. Try broccoli.

Hang in there. Thankfully, Caleb took to it right away. With Ethan it was a different story. We tried it, got frustrated, stopped for a week, tried again and he took to it better the second time around. Caleb still isn't too fond of the cereal for the first few bites, but then he almost gets demanding once he gets used to the texture. Funny kids!

When she's eating finger foods, you'll be trying to figure out ways to get her to eat the finger foods that are good for her and like now, you'll be throwing a lot away.
