Since we were moving when I started Aden on solids he had store bought baby food for the first few weeks. Now we have moved in and are sorted...well sort of....I've been making food for Aden to go with his rice cereal. Aunty Bee was visiting today and gave Aden his homemade pumpkin for lunch.... and finished with a few air guitar lessons!! LOL And Tonight I have spent the better part of 2 hours making more stock for the freezer! Sweet Potato, Potato and Parsnip and the purple one is Apple, Pear and Blueberries! It smelt delicious...like a hot apple pie!!
