Pears + Prunes + Cloves Baby Food Puree (Constipation Cure Puree)
This Pears + Prunes + Cloves Baby Food Puree recipe is a tasty puree that will help cure baby constipation right up! As you know, we started feeding baby Parker about a month ago (if not, catch up here and here) and while it has been beyond fun to see her amazing reactions to the new foods we have introduced, some of pure delight while others of pure terror, there is one thing I completely forgot about when starting to introduce purees to baby - the constipation that will most likely follow. For most parents, constipation can be a troubling concern, especially because symptoms usually appear at 3am. While their little bellies might be going MORE MORE MORE, their delicate intestines are saying WHOA THERE COWBABY, EASY DOES IT. It takes a while for baby's digestive system to catch up with their stomach, so while a backed up baby is unnerving, it is nothing to completely freak out about. While prune juice was my go to for Ellie when she was a baby, I ...
Cherry + Basil Baby Food Puree
This Cherry + Basil Baby Food Puree is a fun way to introduce the taste of summer to baby. Filled with essential nutrients for growing baby - this puree will sure to be a hit! Great baby food for 4+ months - stage 1 baby food. I remember the first time I had a real cherry, not the fake kind of cherry that is neon pink and served in a Shirley Temple which was my favorite drink at the time, but the kind of cherry that was still warm because it had just been picked off a tree that same day. So ripe it bleed dark red juice all over my face and shirt without mercy. Sweet enough that you want to stop after eating just a couple but you know that you have little self control as it is so why bother with self control over cherries. My first cherry tasting happened when I was teenager staying the summer with my older sister and enjoying the summer life in Montana. My dad had come up to help me make the long drive back down to Colorado and on the way we pulled over and bought a huge ...
Roasted Blueberry + Cinnamon Baby Food Puree
This Roasted Blueberry + Cinnamon Baby Food Puree is so good that you will not want to share it with baby! An antioxidant filled puree that the entire family will love. Great baby food for 4+ months - stage 1 baby food! Roasted Blueberry + Cinnamon Baby Food Puree for the #win: I just want you to know that I have been kicking around making a blueberry only puree for some time now but could never really finalize anything that was amazing. Something that was so going to be so darn good that you would skip feeding it to your little one and just sit down and enjoy it for yourself. Which I am sure sounds mean and all, but really aren't we supposed to put our life masks on first? To me, blueberries are a perfect little fruit. SweetCleanFreshEasy to transportEasy to eat an entire container in one sitting The problem is that when made into a baby food puree, they lose their magic. They become bland, mushy on the verge of runny and discolored to a weird purple/brown color. ...

A great puree to introduce to baby in the summer months when apricots are fresh and bursting with flavor! Great baby food for 4+ months - stage 1 baby food. I have been un-intentionally gone for the last week or so due to a visit from my in-laws, construction on my house taking w.a.y. longer then expected but mostly because during the time I usually work during the day [Little E's nap time] I have been napping as well. With less then 4 weeks to go until Baby FoodE #2 arrives, I have hit my wall. A really high wall made up of fatigue, swollen ankles and an extreme case of mommy brain. I have been trying to break down this wall with eating a ton of popsicles, drinking gallons of lemonade and having a nightly bedtime of 9pm, but so far I have found those items useless in my pursuit to get over it all. So please be patient with me during the next couple of months as I ...
