When Rudy starts eating solid food, we're going home-made. Well, that's the plan anyway. Geber baby food is high in sodium and sugars, relatively speaking. Thanks to Rudy's aunt's financial support, I purchased the award winning Beaba Babycook baby food maker from Williams Sonoma. I had my eyes on this beautiful piece of machinery for a few months - reading reviews and watching how-to videos. It defrosts, purees, and heats food. Even though I have 8 months before I need to use it, I'm already reading recipes and scoping out the Beaba accessories bundle (only available in the store). The bundle costs about $15 more than the Babycook - Yikes - and will be on my Christmas wish list. Of course the Babycook is good for veggies and fruit, but what about juice and cereal?
Rudy will have fresh juice made with my Jack LaLanne juicer. I hope Rudy likes carrot, beet & celery juice, one of mommy's favs. We'll be serving Cream of Wheat and Cream of Rice as the hot cereals. Maybe even some Malto-Meal.
Like I said, this is the plan. Home-made takes more time than pre-made so daddy and I will have to be a tag team for this plan to work. I think Rudy is worth it.
