Super Porridge

Yesterday we sang Happy Birthday to Joseph! He was 6 months old! Tomorrow we go for his check up with the pedi, can't wait to see his percentages! We fed him cereal for the first time yesterday! I made him some Super Porridge out of the "Super Baby Food" book. It is made with whole grain brown rice. He loved it! We also whipped up some sweet potatoes, avocado, and pears. We froze them in little baggies for easy portion sizes. I won't freeze the cereal, so I'll be making it probably every few days. Once I blend the grain, it only takes 10 minutes to cook. I'm using the rice now, but hope to try some millet next time and maybe barley or oats. At 8 months he can have more than one grain, but for now single grain cereal is what his little digestive system can handle.
