O mankind! if ye have a doubt about the Resurrection, (consider) that We created you out of dust, than out of sperm, then out of a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, in order that we may manifest ( Our Power) to you; and We cause whom We will to rest in the wombs for an appointed term, then do We bring you out as babes, then (foster you) that ye may reach your age of full strenght; and some of you are called to die and some are sent back to the feeblest old age, so that they know nothing after known (much). And (further), thou seest the earth barren and lifeless, but when We pour down rain on it, it is stirred (To life), it swells,and it puts forth every kind of beautiful growth in pairs. ( Surah al- Hajj, ayat 5, Qur'an)

baby led weaning: day 8, give peas a chance

Balls and bolognese. I had a go at making some beef meatballs, putting in it some olives, ketchup and cumin. Very tasty and to this added some tomato sauce covered pasta. Lets just say he had sauce on his eye lashes, in his nose and the corner of his eyes!
The meat balls were crumbly so not all that easy to eat, but he had a good go and his pincer grip is greatly improving. I think this is something that can be practiced with foods like peas, sweetcorn and raisins.
He wore this great bib which has a fab plastic pocket and caught almost all of the fallen food! Making it easier to tidy up. Thumbs up for this product.
It was finished off with a lovely bit of soya yogurt and even this went more smoothly with the spoon action (less yogurt was flung over board).

I think I would like to make some hearty muffins next. Hmmm ... maybe with apricot as he does like those.
