Sweet Potato

God bless the solid foods, for they lead to sleep-filled nights. 

For the past few days, Emma’s interest in purees has surpassed just gumming them around in her mouth, and now she ravenously gulps down one and two jars of fruits and veggies at a time, usually mixed with some rice or oatmeal cereal to add texture and iron.  The last few days have included monster feeding sessions, and the last two nights have included only one wake-up each.  It’s amazing how much better rested I feel when I only have to get up once in the night with the baby instead of three to four times!

Whahooo! Out of curiosity -- have you ever tasted one of those purees yourself? They taste so weird! And they are weird combos, too -- like chicken and rhubarb or pears, rice, and sweet potatoes. So weird.
