Daddy gets busy, Mommy gets busy!

This month will be quite exciting with Joel and Ryan being quite busy and the Hollidays expecting their 2nd child - a little boy!

Baby Led Weaning

I have done things quite differently with Luther (vitamins and the Brewer diet during pregnancy, homebirth, cloth diapers, and selectively vaccinating) and beginning solid foods is no exception.  We are going to try out Baby Led weaning and see how it goes.  The premise of Baby Led Weaning is to allow the baby to explore solid foods at his own pace, instead of spoon feeding him.  Luther has an excellent grasp for this age but it still isn't good enough to be fully feeding himself.  He has just started waking up earlier, and he has been grabbing our food for a couple months now;) So.. I know he's hungry for 'real food.' Hopefully that will be motivating as we throw 'real food' in front of him and give him no help at all. I am excited to try this but not 100% all in.. example... if he starts to wake up in the middle of the night, we might be all done with the Baby Led Weaning and just rely on good old fashioned spoon feeding.  Here's a glimpse of what we are working with...





VEDO Video/Vlog Every Day in October

In contrast with the Baby Led Weaning, this is something I will stick with.... hopefully;) I am going to attempt to post a video on my youtube channel every day in October.  The topics will vary from motherhood, product reviews, attempting to live a Godly life, and healthy eating.  Oh and I'm sure there will be some videos of just the kids thrown in there a few times to keep things interesting.  Tune in each day, or subscribe to get an email with the video!
