Baby Led Weaning FTW!!

Edward cheering his own mischievous mess making!!
(I particularly like the small piece of mushroom stuck on his head hehe!)

Breakfast - Banana and Pear BLW

Lunch - Parsnip, Carrot, Banana, Mushroom and Strawberry....and a cracker as he kept eyeing up mine! BLW

Supper- Muesli and Apple puree

We went rather hard-core BLW today, especially at lunch I really wanted to offer Edward a range of things and let him pick what he thought looked or smelt most tasty. He spread it everywhere and had lots of fun, the strawberry and the mushroom were the most successful things on the table, the strawberry initially got shoved in whole though sadly I didn't get a piccie of it.

Edward did did very well at manipulating the food, especially as a lot of it was slippery. It is always hard to judge how much he ate, however at breakfast looking at the pile of mush left behind I would say he ate the most part of a pear and half a banana.

In the evening though we went back to the safety of puree it's not as amusing to watch, but it is a lot easier to clean up after!
