Hi, I’m Kelly and this is my baby Lula!
Brittany over at A Healthy Slice Of Life is hosting something called Munchkin Meals. Basically, she came up with a great idea for mommas to share what they feed their little ones. I’m afraid my post won’t be too interesting or creative but I am looking forward to seeing what other mommas are doing!
Lula is almost nine months old and at this point, I am doing a nursing/baby led weaning/purees/every day is different/ kind of meal plan with her.
Here’s what yesterday looked like.
I nurse Lula several times a day- at 5:15 AM I nursed her, repeated at 7:15,
8:30,
11…you get the idea. Things become really exciting around lunch time when she is fed real food!
She loves chewing on a Propel bottle while I get our lunch ready.
Tuesday I gave her some broccoli puree and, well…she was not a fan. I wasn’t incredibly smart about it as I gave her a little sweet potato puree first so on the heels of that deliciousness, who would want broccoli puree?
Wednesday, I think I won her over!
I had a few grapes I was eating so I picked apart some of the insides for her dessert- she loves fruit!
The afternoon consisted of nursings roughly every two hours which last all of 5-10 minutes because she is so darn efficient!
Evening brings cereal- iron fortified- and we rotate between rice and oatmeal.
Lula’s favorite is definitely oatmeal!
I nurse her again at 6:45 for a pre-bedtime snack and at 9:30 I “dream feed” her before I go to bed.
I really enjoy introducing new foods to her but I am definitely taking my time with it- most of her nutrients still come from nursing.
Thanks for hosting this Brittany- I’m looking forward to seeing what other mommas are feeding their little ones!



You’re so cute, Kelly! As is miss Lula, of course. She looks like such a happy eater- love the oatmeal face!
Thanks so much for participating.
Oh my, you are making me blush!
Thanks for the compliment and thanks also for doing this…clearly most people are leaps and bounds above what we do but I know I’ve got plenty of time to get there!
So great that you are participating. I am going to take photos of everything I pack for the kids in the evenings and share as well with you two (and whom ever reads my blog).
Love how she investigate that spoon of food thoroughly
That’s a good idea- it will be fun to see what your kids eat and if you have different favorite foods since you are in SA!
Cassidy loves the insides of the grape too. Although i get pretty tired of eating all the skin off!
Ugh, I hear you! But I am way too scared to let her eat one with the skin on!
I’m loving this link up! Your little girl is just precious! Ella loves grapes and water bottles too hahaha
Awww, thank you so much Laury! I am loving the link-up too- it’s so nice to connect with other mommas out there! I’m glad Lula is not the only one who digs the water bottles- anything to keep her happy in the kitchen!
