November Formula Friday (11/6)

My favorite day of the week. Let's talk formula and food.

NBR GTKY: Favorite Fall dessert?

[dreemkin]

Awesome age: 9 months (I think my favorite age)

Fabulous formula/bottle amt: holding strong at 4 6oz bottles a day.

Super solid section: I trying to use up frozen purees. I'm so done with that. She likes to self feed anyway.

Cozy comment corner: Non formula/food related - I'm getting baby fever but my H feels very strongly about just having 2. Unfortunately there's no compromising when it comes to this. I'm very sad about it. At least when Nor started growing up, I knew I'd have another one come down the pike. Now when we're done with something (swing, clothes, etc) we're done for good

NBR GTKY: Favorite Fall dessert? Looking for a little inspiration here. I like pumpkin pie but sometimes that's a little boring. I like pumpkin anything really.

Awesome age: 9 months

Fabulous formula/bottle amt: 26 oz.

Super solid section: I feel like we're in a rut. He's had all the new foods he can have and I feel like now I'm just feeding him the same 4 or 5 favorites. I know he's okay but I get bored eating that way.

Cozy comment corner: See above.

NBR GTKY: Favorite Fall dessert? Spice cake with maple buttercream frosting.

Awesome age: 9 months tomorrow. So big!

Fabulous formula/bottle amt: 25-28 oz daily

Super solid section: primarily finger food but also applesauce or fruit puree for breakfast. I'm having trouble with what to serve for lunch. I don't usually eat much these days for lunch so it's tough. Any ideas?

Cozy comment corner: do you guys worry about cutting back on formula? Have you cut back or let baby lead the way? Effie seems to eat whatever I offer but doesn't seem bothered if I offer less. So I have no idea.

NBR GTKY: Favorite Fall dessert? I'm going to go against the grain and just say that I don't like pumpkin spice stuff. I do like cranberry pie (just cranberries. Nothing else). So yummy and tart! My grandma always made it for thanksgiving.

I really don't have much advice on this. My guys also eat whatever is offered. I just make sure they get 24 oz per day until I see the pedi next week.

For lunch, I do cheese, lunch meat, veggies, fruits, last night leftovers, etc.

I have no desire to have any more kiddos but I still feel a bit sad when I put/give away baby items. It's odd knowing these 2 are our last babies. I went and snuggled with one of my friend's newborn this weekend. It was so nice.... but I was happy to give the little guy back

johanna we are WAY down on the formula intake but the girl does. not. want. it. I don't know what to say. I also read online good lunch ideas are sandwiches. Grilled cheese, pb and jelly/banana, or any spread or cream cheese. I may try this since I am also not a big lunch eater.

dreemkin DH is also firmly in the 2 child camp. He told me after this next one is born he's getting snipped but doing something so permanent makes me sad.

Sorry to be so late checking in, I have just been MIA in general

Age: 9.5m

Bottles: 15-18oz (3-4 bottles)

Solids: Mostly finger foods, but going back to jarred foods for dinner on the days I can't get my act together.

Comments: DD will take her morning and evening bottles, but during the day it's a struggle to get them into her.

GTKY: Anything apple. Crisp, pie, anything. Yum!
