Feeding a Plant-Based Baby: What Willow Eats (9-10 months)

Feeding a Plant-Based Baby

Let me tell you – this girl loves to EAT. Anything, honestly. She is so happy with whatever we put in front of her. We are just moving right along, pretty much sharing almost everything with her as long as we break it up a bit. She loves to taste mama and dada’s food… she gets very excited when we share. It hurts my heart in the best way. Love this kid.
