Omega 3

Surprisingly already, I'm in the position were I'm needing to share my lunch with Z.
My unadon (Japanese eel on rice) was greedily demanded after each morsel was sucked and swallowed.
I'd pull off a small piece of the flesh rub it between my fingers checking for tiny bones and then pop it on his tongue. He absolutely loved it and then even a small amount of the rice coated in the sauce.

I was conscientious about having lots of omega 3 foods whilst pregnant and then breastfeeding for his growing brain, its exciting now that I can share it straight from my favourite source, oily fish.

Baby burps

We spent the weekend on the Gold coast, (Simon ran the Gold Coast marathon and we proudly cheered from the side lines) and I haven't posted Z's most exciting meals to date yet but a sweet little by product of Z's solids are the gorgeous little scented burbs.
My absolute favourite so far is taleggio, from some awesome polenta last week, today's scented burb was pear.

It takes you by surprise as you get use to the delicious milky burb smells and then suddenly there are food ones, the product of all my fussing to get the right things and get them into his tummy.

No doubt within a couple of years I'll be telling him not to burb like that but until then I'll just keep enjoying the little baby burb reminders of meals once enjoyed...by all three of us.
