Ben is off of his nursing strike, Thank God. Now onto more appetizing forms of food for my child.
Next weekend he will be starting on rice cereal then a few weeks after that VEGGIES!!! I have one mission in life as a Mom and that is to make my child love vegetables as much as I do. He can have a million tattoos and be a UFC fighter for all I care, as long as he downs his eggplant, zucchini, and red bell peppers (just kidding about the first two things).
Because of this quest, I have been doing mucho research on the best way to introduce solids to babies and the best ways to raise veggie eaters. I came across this article and thought it was worth sharing.
In the past I've never been a big organic produce consumer... because 1. I shop at Walmart and their organic produce selection is non-existent. 2. I never really "believed" in all the hype. 3. Organic produce is more expensive.
However, when it comes to down to feeding the little one, I really don't want him to be ingesting all those chemicals. I love this list because now I not only know which generic veggies to avoid at Walmart (and make a separate trip to Whole food to get), but I also know which ones are totally safe so I don't waste money buying organic where I don't need. I printed this list and am keeping it in my purse so I can easily reference it while shopping.
Hope everyone is having a great Monday.
