Trying Cooked Carrots

 Skye, despite having a baby young, is a very good mother.  Lately, she has taken to steaming and cooking fresh vegetables for the baby to try.  Thankfully too, Waverly doesn't seem to be the picky eater her mom was growing up.  

Skye had peeled and cut up fresh carrots.  Then boiled them until they are soft.  She lets the cool down to room temperature before she gives them to Waverly so she doesn't burn her tongue.  So far, she has made butternut squash, carrots, sweet potatoes, asparagus, broccoli, and cauliflower.  For carrots she boils them in either water or chicken broth, while she usually steams the other veggies in my instant pot.  

I can't begin to explain how proud of her I am.  Skye is cooking veggies that she never ate growing up, because I never ate them growing up.  She is expanding her food options and making sure that Waverly eats healthy foods.  That doesn't mean Waverly will never eat junk food, like the Riesen I gave her in a previous video, but we all try to eat a well rounded meal whenever possible.

 See ya soon!
