I thought I was being resourceful, but the busca would not eat my creative baby food of puffed millet mixed with blueberries and apples. I bought the puffed millet as an alternative to cheerios, since I want to stay away from wheat until he's a bit older --- I am a gluten-free girl. But, the millet is too small for busca's motor skills at this point. They taste good, but they just don't end up in the mouth. So, I let a tablespoon or so of the puffed cereal soak in a too-runny apple/blueberry sauce that I had made a few days ago and the result was a unique textured flavorful concoction. Not so to FGH, he spit and squirmed and spit some more. Oh well, it was worth a try. By the way, I figured out on another website that the reason my applesauce was so runny, I overcooked the apples.
In other baby food news, he has successfully tired potatoes, white rice, goat and cow's milk yogurt, and cheese! Don't forget small soft pieces of ice, an alternative cheerio called an Oatey O or something, and a teething bisquit. The excitement is just too much, I know.

The "fake" Cheerios he had over Halloween weekend are called "Toasted Oats." They're made by a company called "Full Circle," and they're the only ones I could find with no wheat! Our co-op doesn't carry them, they're just from Hy-Vee in the organic department. If you can't find any, let me know if you want me to bring you a few boxes next time we get together!
