My original goal was to post here once a week, but luckily things have been super busy lately, so I'm finding it hard to stick to that goal. On the good news front, I'm going to be a professional blogger for Freshfully.com, a new website promoting local, healthy food, connecting farmers with consumers and showcasing local restaurants and markets. So far I've interviewed a turkey farmer and purchased organic apples for making baby food, and it's been a lot of fun. The website launches officially in November, so I'll keep you posted.
Baby food making is going great. Mali still loves her sweet potatoes, but she also really likes peas. We get to try the apples tomorrow, so I hope she likes them too. The biggest problem with baby food is the stains. She now spits up orange, drools orange, and mushes her face and hands into her clothing to cover them in orange. I think I need to buy some stock in Oxiclean.
Mali's getting close to sitting up on her own. She can go for a few seconds at a time, but then the wobbles set in. Also, in one day this week she learned to say Ba, Ma, and Da! I don't think she's associating those sounds with us yet, but the fact she can make them means we're getting closer!
patch with my brother's family and had a blast. I wrote more about it for Freshfully.com, my new gig, but here are some pictures of all the fun we had :) I cannot
wait to show you Mali's Halloween costume next week either!
