The strike is over!

You know how babies tend to be fussy eaters at times, especially when they are teething and their little mouth hurts? Evie has been teething like a mad woman lately--she got two of her top teeth about 2 weeks ago and the other 2 have been bugging her for the past week.

The pain of it all has caused a little food strike. For the past week Evie has wanted to have nothing to do with eating any form of baby food that would come to her on a spoon. She has survived on Cheerios, graham crackers, cheese, and Dino chicken nuggets from Costco.

I knew today her mouth must be feeling better because she actually let me look at her teeth. There they are, nearly in! You know what that means--FOOD! Our little Evelyn ate like it was going out of style today, it was rather hilarious.

I have my own version of "homemade" baby food--pretty much a can of fruit that has been canned in fruit juice is a heck of a lot cheaper, and those frozen veggies are truly so good foo you... So I grabbed a can of peaches and blended up about 3/4 of them. No joke, Evie ate them all, along with cereal! Then about 3 hours later she plowed through the rest! And that is on top of the chicken nuggets and all those other goodies. I am glad to have my hungry little eater back!
