Sweet Potato Pie and Curveballs.

Well, not really sweet potato pie- but Grayden did have his first taste of vegetables!! And if you haven't guessed it, he had himself some yummy sweet potatoes! We started him on some sweet potatoes last week and he absolutly LOVED them!


However, we introduced peas this weekend. And the reaction wasn't what we had hoped for. See below:

























So, we've been creative and have had to alternate bites between the sweet potatoes and peas to get him to eat them. I didn't like peas when I was little either- so it's not that we are forcing him to like peas, but we had bought those big starter packs of vegetables (8 jars of peas) and we hate to think we've wasted money on peas! So peas and sweet potato medley it is.




Grayden did hit the 6 month mark this past weekend! And in our house, when you hit six months, you are expected to know how to fast pitch. So Rob has been working on teaching Grayden the art of baseball.
His first lesson went well. We practiced picking our pitch and how to throw a curveball.
All is well at the Hartman House- stay tuned, more to come next time.
