Teething Sucks.

lls_mutantI knew this would happen. I got Toby through teething, got a couple month break, and guess what? Trevor's teething. Early, I know, but the outline of the teeth is pretty clear and almost breaking through. I'm torn between swearing and thinking "well, maybe he'll get it over with sooner!" :)
Much to my surprise, I am actually contemplating making homemade baby food for Trevor. I didn't do it for Toby, but I have some reasons.
1.) I wonder if the transition to "real" food will be easier if I make the homemade stuff.
2.) Let's face it- the jarred stuff is DISGUSTING.
I know Toby has issues that are probably not my fault, or at least not totally my fault. I was reading up on the difference between picky eaters and problem eaters, and Toby is most definitely the latter. The feeding clinic said he probably has some sensory processing issues. But at the same time, I'm a mom, which means in my head it's ALL MY FAULT. I don't want to screw up with Trevor.
Plus, it's something I didn't do for Toby. It's kind of nice that I can do something extra effort wise for Trevor.
And finally, Howard gave me a book called First Meals for Mother's Day last year. It talks about making purees for baby food and goes all the way up to people food. It's a pretty neat book- and it really has me inspired. So, maybe I will do it.
Regardless, I SHOULD be writing my remix as my boys nap.
