My baby loves green peas!!

Kekoa is on food "tastes" number 3...organic green peas. I was skeptical that he would enjoy eating green peas since I have heard from so many other moms that their babies didn't like peas at all...would even gag!
I woke up this morning and zapped some frozen peas in the microwave. I am having fun making Kekoa's baby food. I figure since I am home with him, I don't really have an excuse to not make fresh food. I whirled the peas in the food processor and added some breast milk to thin it out. Because I figured he wouldn't like the peas, I thought would be throwing out the bright green mixture. After mixing the peas and milk, my first thought was, "Wow, these peas don't look like the peas in baby food jars. It is vibrant green." My second thought, after dipping my finger in the bowl for a taste was, "Hmmm, he may like this. It is pretty sweet."
Scott sat down with Kekoa and gave him his first taste. Not only did he not gag or spit it up, he wanted more...all this is happening while Kekoa has the hiccups! I'm so excited Kekoa likes veggies, well at least he does today. Let's see what happens tomorrow morning!

My baby food making mess...
Vibrant green peas ready for tomorrow!

Daddy putting my bib on...I'm ready!What's this new green food?
Hmmm, I'm not sure!
Ok, give me more. I'll even help get the spoon into my mouth!
Yummy!
