Going Bananas!

After several attempts to let Isaac try bananas...he finally ACCEPTS it and now, he enjoys bananas!

Check out his expression when he was first introduced to bananas at the age of 5 months.

Fried Bee Hoon

Isaac has been feeling really bored of his porridge. Since we are having fried bee hoon for lunch, I decided to let him try. He really enjoyed a change in his usual diet!

Ingredients :

1. Chicken breast meat
2. Bee Hoon
3. Carrots
4. French Beans

Steps :

1. Boil chicken breast meat to cook it separately. Keep the stock and shred the chicken to small strips.
2. In a frying pan, put little oil just to stir fry the garlic, carrots and french beans. Add a bit of pepper, light soy sauce and water. Bring the sauce to a boil.
3. Add softened bee hoon and chicken breast meat to the sauce and simmer till the bee hoon is soft.
4. Bee hoon should absorb all the sauce when it's cooked.

Hearty Breakfast

Isaac had a hearty breakfast (so I thought) today. Scramble eggs with cheese chunks, lightly toasted wholemeal bread and yoghurt. Yummy, but he didn't finish all but that's ok, as long as he has enough.

Scrambled eggs :
One Egg
Water (about 1 tablespoon)
Cheese chunks

Simply put the mixture into the pan (on low fire) and slowly cook and scramble it! :)

Papaya

New fruit introduced today - Papaya. Isaac loved it. In fact, I gave him 3 big pieces and after eating, he wanted MORE! Greedy little fella, yah? Anyway, should not give him too much papaya as it may make him turn a bit yellow on the skin! :)

Cough cough

Remember to let the yoghurt to stand at room temperature for a while first before feeding your baby. I did that the first time but I forgot the second time. Isaac is starting to cough a bit and hopefully it will go away soon. Not that serious....only cough occasionally, especially if trying to throw tantrums and crying. :)

Protesting against Cereal

Isaac has started taking lightly toasted wholemeal bread with cheese spread. After taking this, he doesn't want to take his cereal again! I guess he is bored with his cereal and prefers a more textured food such as bread.

I am training him to chew a little better and once he is better at it, I will introduce different types of breakfast for him.

Yoghurt

New snack for Isaac to try : Yoghurt. I am currently giving him Yoplait's Petite Miam and Isaac is ok with it.

So far...he doesn't like bananas at all, after 3 attempts, he is still not taking the fruit. :(
