So I think the time has officially come to completely move Cooper past the baby food “purees.” One, because I have decided that he will be my foodie child, but two, and most importantly…
because he simply won’t let me feed him anymore! It just becomes a ridiculous match of tug of war resulting in Coop getting fussy and me getting covered in baby food slime.
Sadly, much like Brady was at this age (and I can’t tell you how much this scares me) Cooper likes to do everything himself, especially when it comes to feeding himself. So today at lunch I didn’t really plan ahead so I went to the fridge for inspiration, and came back…
…with leftovers.
Yes I know, this is hardly exciting, just some green beans and pasta but here comes the exciting part…no food processor!!!! Watch this…
…Voila! Cooper food! With nothing but a cutting board and a knife. Yea! No more constant steaming, no more blending, no more food processoring (I know, that was a stretch) and no more spoon feeding. Simply drop some on his high chair tray and let him go to town.
See? He likes it. I like it. And guess who really likes it….
…Guinness knows just where to park himself to get the good stuff. So Cooper is a huge fan of the big boy food and I can retire my blender from baby food prep and put it back to good use, to what God intended for, making Mommy margaritas.
So stay tuned to see what falls off of Coop’s tray next. God knows Guinness will!
