I wrote on my Baby Blog about doing a post or a series of posts about baby food here. So, here’s the first post.The picture that you see above is typically what Aadya’s plate looks like. This plate here has- Pureed carrots and Ragi porridge.I keep them in separate bowls so that she can see and taste both individually and also when I want I mix them.But the idea is for her to know the individual tastes.Now,I got a packet of Nachni satva, also available in stores as other brands- Ragivita. It is essentially Ragi powder. Ragi is very easy to digest and so the best food for babies. In fact,in most maharashtrian home,the babies first solid food is Nachani or ragi.The directions on the packet said to- Mix 1 tsp ragi powder with 1/2 cup milk and bring it to boil.Add sugar to taste.Since I am not giving any sugar,salt or milk to Aadya, I just substituted the milk with water and omitted the sugar. And then I added a little formula / breast milk to it. 🙂Here’s what Poppin’s mom wrote!
Keep the recipes and ideas coming ladies..I will put them up once I am back!

Yes,I rock!-says Kiran and Boy! does the sound of that please me!! Yessirieeee it does!
The girl bit sure does the trick,specially when you are getting used being called and looked at as MOM!Ahem, and she also called me adorable!!yayyyyyyyyyyy (screaming like a girl! ):) and blushing too!
Seriously,I first started this blog to write about my feelings and experiences as a soon-to-be mom.That first comment from Tharini made me want to write more.The challenge was to get in the groove,to get started. Those first few posts were just something to start with.Then,I started writing about my pregnancy and then slowly moved on to day-to-day accounts of life.I know sometimes,it may be boring, but all you guys have been sweet enough to read through and even take the time to comment.
And then, slowly the blog became my baby,a very very important part of my life, and I started blogging in my mind.Anything interesting happened and I would blog about it in my mind then and there and then write here.:)I wrote here about things that bothered me,made me happy-everything.The warm welcome my dad received from you guys was just fantastic. And now,I find myself wondering about the little kiddies and their mommies..sometimes I wonder what their real names,not that it matters.. sometimes I picture their funny antics-the pictures painted by your words are just so clear.
This blog is as much a part of my life..as anything else.I know you know what I mean 🙂 I am just so happy you take the time to read and leave a comment. And its because of you,that today I can proudly say this is post number 100 ( *Not counting the picture post before this). Thanks for all the love and motivation ,guys. And Lurkers- Calling out to you again, please, stop by, say Hi..leave a comment..:) make my day!
