mama mia! :)

henry had his very first pizza!!!  We made him his very own personal pan :)  Of course, the cheese wasn't real cheese.  It was actually "mozzarella style shreds" that are mostly made of tapioca and soy.  Its actually not too bad, kinda salty tasting I thought.  We found it at the pomegranate market in sioux falls amongst some other fun things that we are looking forward to having henry try, like coconut milk ice cream!  I think we will save that for his valentine treat :)  he is starting to experiment with new foods more and we are slowly moving away from the purees finally.  But that also means that his mama is gonna have to figure out some new nifty dairy-free recipes.  i did get a "go dairy-free" cookbook a bit ago so i will have to take a closer look at it.  You would be surprised by the number of products that have milk in them that you don't even think about!  I would love for henry to just try some plain bread or crackers, but many of those things have milk!  Austin and I have become quite the label scrutinizers---anything for henry :)  below is a before pic of henry's little pizza.  the "cheese" looks just like the real thing!
 and the "after"!  not too bad if i do say so myself :)
 just checking it out, he's never eaten anything like it before and had to give it a good inspection
 daddy is the official taste-tester i guess :)  henry loves to share his food
 if daddy thinks its good, it must be!
haha, he wasn't ready for that gooey cheese texture
but despite the funny faces he kept on eating it, so i think its pretty safe to say that henry likes pizza :)
okay mom your turn---you gotta try this its sooo yummy!
 A little bit of the aftermath from Henry's first big boy meal.  pizza, corn, and applesauce washed down with soy formula :)
 a happy belly for our happy baby--hooray!!!
