Chase Is Eating Food

We were very fortunate to have Aunt Stephanie watch Chase the last few months after Laura returned to work. Chase had so much fun playing with Cousin Jack everyday. Stephanie did a great job and we can't thank her enough. Stephanie is getting ready for her second baby, so Chase spent the days last week with Laura's friend Trina and her son Declan. He has such a great time there as well. We are really blessed to have such great caretakers for Chase. That is definitely part of the reason why Chase is such an easygoing baby.

All credit goes to Trina for getting Chase to eat baby food. She worked some kind of magic to make it happen. Now he is doing terrific. He eats cereal, butternut squash, carrots, and this week we are trying green beans. Laura cooks up a big portion of each and puts them in the blender. Next, she puts them in an ice tray. Two cubes are one serving, so we are left with 6 servings in each tray. Laura will be first to tell you that I was skeptical, but it has worked out very well. And she will quickly point out that it is all organic.
