Juniper will be 10 months on Wednesday. Oh, my we can't believe she's

almost a year!

 

Some of her favorite foods (we make them all):

sweet potatoe

broccoli

carrots (both puree and cooked chunks)

green beans

white beans puree

lentils

apple sauce (made from our neighbors apples)

yoghurt

oat bran quick cereal

whole wheat bread and toast

 

I'm sure there's more food we've tried but this is what I can remember

right now.

 

Not planning a big meal today since it's just the three of us, but

we'll be eating a lot tomorrow during our annual Boxing Day party.

 

Denise, James and Juniper
