(unless it is spicy or something) Jon Jon is a VERY picky eater. He is an unusual case. He actually gags on vegetables, even when you hide them. I tried that. One time I steamed vegetables and used the water to cook ramen noodle soup and he didn't notice. Dipping veggies in ranch dip also worked. My kids are weird though. I can bribe JOn JOn with the computer now and he seems to magically love vegetables. :-) Kids are funny. Aron just eats what we eat, smashed up though. (unless it is spicy or something)

I didn't store them in ice cube trays for long because my daughter had and enormous appetite and I would end up using half the ice cube tray. I mostly stored them in tupperware containers. I guess I'll be starting that again in about 3 months! I made my own baby food as well!

It is almost like what she does--you steam whatever you want, then I would put the steamed veggies in the blender with a little of the left over water, and blend it. Then it would go into an ice cube tray--and into the freezer. When everything was frozen, I would pull them out and into a gallon freezer bag. Then when we would be going out, and I would need food, I would just put an ice cube or two of peas, carrots, sweet potato or squash into a tupperware container, and it would be completely thaw and ready to eat when they were--so easy--so healthy! I'd never thought of continuing that with the older kids food! I may try! When my kids were infants I made my own baby food–it saved so much money and was so easy.
