An Honest Bundle

People are just now realizing that what we put on our bodies is just as important as what we put in our bodies. Your skin is very porous and is one of the major routes in which chemicals enter your body. This is why there has been a lot of buzz around Jessica Alba’s eco-friendly lifestyle line, The Honest Company, which offers non-toxic diapers, bath and body products, household cleaners and health and wellness products.

If you haven’t tried The Honest Company yet, you might want to start with ‘A Honest Bundle,’ which is a monthly subscription to a variety of premium, eco-friendly products delivered right to your door. Choose from bundles like ‘Diapers and Wipes’ or ‘Health and Wellness.’ You can save up to 40% off your bundle and cancel anytime.

Off the spoon for Baby A

So Baby A is an exclusively breastfed baby. She has recently been showing signs of being ready for baby food so we gave it a try. We started with oatmeal mixed with breastmilk. We tried with water first. She did not approve of that at all. She ate it up when we mixed it with the breastmilk. 



As you can see, this was an impromptu feeding and all we had were plastic spoons. We went and bought infant spoons the very next day. She eats oatmeal at least once a day now. We have also started adding some banana or applesauce to it. She absolutely loves that. Applesauce is her favorite. 


She is a happy chunky faced baby. It was apparently good to the last bit. She ate it off her fingers. 


The cues we noticed as far as her being ready for baby food were as follows:
-tracking other people's food
-making chewing motions with her mouth
-trying to feed herself your food
