baby food disastor

so while we were out in portland i watched my sis make her little man homemade baby food. she's a busy woman - working full time as a nurse practitioner, being a super mommy and wife, she also volunteers her time and has a stinky long commute. she manages to still make baby food for her little babe, so i thought, why don't i make my own baby food for nuggie? i don't work and only go to school part time - i have no excuse! nuggie's two favorite foods are peas and sweet potatoes. so i steamed up a bag of peas and a whole sweet potato (not together). i then pureed them and added just a little water to help make them a little more runny. i was SO excited - i made baby food! i sat little miss down in her high chair and eagerly gave her a spoonful of the veggies... and she cried. she made the worst little frown and gagged and cried! oh.my.word - how much of a little diva do we have??? do you see what i'm working with here??? ugh! i thought i was doing such a good thing! so it's back to gerber for us. i froze the little containers of food, we'll give it a try again in a week or so. why she prefers gerber to home cooked goodness i do not know... oh my sweet little diva doll :-)
