Georgia is quickly approaching 18 months old, and her appetite is growing! She was very slow and particular when I was introducing solids, and I am glad to see her coming around. I don't feed her all organic, but when organic is an available option that's what I go with. I'm trying to do my best to instill in her a preference for healthy and wholesome.
Right now she drinks water with meals. Some times I put a little juice in her water. I've given her juice more frequently in the past, but I was given water often as a tot and today I love it! I'm glad I don't have a preference for a sweet or carbonated drink. Hopefully G will too!
My focus right now is offering her variety and I'm always looking for ideas. I'm also trying to give her what we eat more often, I don't want to find myself cooking for the big people and then cooking another separate meal to accommodate a picky eater.
I thought I would take some pictures of her food because 1) things like this thrill me 2) maybe it can give some other moms ideas 3) to help me remember 4) her food looks so darn cute!
