Baby Food

I have had a few moms ask how I make my baby food and here it is! It is so easy and CHEAP. And it just takes a few extra minutes of your day.

All you need is:

-Freezer (check)
-2 Ice cube trays (cheap you can find it at Walmart for $2)
-Sranwrap (check)
-Freezer quart size Ziploc bags
-Blender or Food processor or VitaMix

Foods to cook (or even buy in cans or frozen isle):
Carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, spinach, green beans, peas, the list goes on and on.

Cook or open can or frozen (thawed) bag of vegetables and throw in blender and process to a liquid. Pour into ice cubes trays, cover with sranwrap and freeze. After frozen, pop them out of trays and place into quart Ziploc bags. One cube is 1 serving for baby and I put it in a microwave safe bowl and zap for 30 seconds.

So easy! If you have any questions please ask!

The days before Halloween

Couple of our family pictures at the ward Trunk or Treat. Matt loved saying Trick or Treat and receiving candy. He made out like a bandit. Matt was Pooh Bear and Izzie was a Sweet Pea.

This is Matthew's friend Kenna. She was Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz and looked so cute.

On Friday we went to the Elementary School's Halloween Carnival. Matt didn't want to dress up for this. He had a melt down with the cowboy boots and hat. So he just wore his wranglers and button down shirt and looked like a normal boy. But as soon as we got there at the school he loved it and played tons of games! I am lucky he let me take these pictures.

October 2008 Update

Here are a few fun pictures of the kids -Matthew and Izzie.

Am I Bald YET?!!

So I am pulling my hair out! My kid has finally decided that naps are behind him. Matthew is only 2 and a half years old! He went from having one everyday for about an hour and a half to NOTHING. I have tried everything- sleeping with him (mostly me sleeping and him talking), reading books, yelling and screaming, putting him in front of the TV hoping that makes him sleepy, but NOTHING is working! If I head somewhere he falls asleep in his car seat and has a nice 5 minute nap. However he needs the naps, and so do I!!! I need my space from him. Help - I am almost to locking the little feller in his room.
