Nerd Dads Endorses KidCo's BabySteps Food Mill

I honestly never thought we'd be making our own baby food. For two parents who work full-time, it just seemed like it would be too annoying, frustrating, and time-consuming to orchestrate, and way too convenient to bust out one of those little jars of pre-pureed yummy either at home or out on the town.

But lo and behold, here we are at nine months, and The Squirt's been eating a lot of home cooked/prepared food. I'm way too lazy to have done this, so all the credit goes to The Old Lady, who's been really tenacious and consistent about feeding our little scamp fresh food.

Granted, these meals generally consist of just one or two vegetables and fruits that are easy to prepare (WE LOVE YOU AVOCADO) and maybe a couple stray Cheerios or mushy pasta or baby oatmeal for carb ingestion. Still, we're doing far better than I ever thought we would be...even though The Squirt curiously doesn't really seem to like all that much food, but that's another post for another time.

Anyways, The Old Lady's primary tool for these feedings is KidCo Baby Steps Food Mill, a simple but ingenious device that allows hippies like us to smush up soft-ish food in convenient serving sizes very quickly and easily. It works like this. It's also lightweight, doesn't take up a lot of space (i.e., it's portable), and, perhaps most importantly, cleans up real nice. No more washing the umpteen different parts of the food processor or blender for 20 minutes. You don't even have to cook a metric ton of food -- just boil a couple of sweet potatoes or whatever, cut em up, pop them in the food mill, and get to grinding.
