I'm glad you are all suggesting roasting! I bought a couple different squashes at the farm today, so I think I'll try it. With the beets, we roast ours, but I didn't roast his...I just wasn't sure how they would puree if I roasted them? I guess if you are all suggesting it, it must be okay. I'm going to give a shot to roasting a Patti Pan, Acorn and Butternut squash and making a mixed squash puree. Pretty fancy for a 7 month old

Anyway, I puree my food in a baby processor, or whatever they are...the ones they sell at babies r us (such a scam, but it was one of the 50 thousand baby gifts and I just got so sick of returning stuff) anyway, so I use that, but I don't mill it afterward for any chunks. I sort of feel like if he got a little chunk he would be ok with it, and if it's too large, I would catch it on the spoon. Did anyone mill after pureeing? Seems like a lot to do...lol

I bought a container of stoneyfield farm yogurt today. DH likes the whole milk version, so I figured I would make that, and then just add the stuff he already eats like Bananas and cereal instead of buying the YO-Babies. I just didn't know if he was even going to like yogurt, so they they would have all gone to waste since I don't see DH or I sitting down to enjoy a Yo-Baby with added cereal I'll let you all know how it goes...
