Baby Of The Month - Previous Winners

November 2008

At Homemade Baby Food Recipes, we enjoy hearing about how your babies are getting on with solid foods - and we love to receive photographs of them, too!

In our Baby of the Month Competition, we invite you to send in a special photograph of your little one - and we publish our favourites on the site!

The current winners - and the entry form for sending in YOUR baby's photographs - are on our Baby of the Month page - and below you can see the winners from November's competition!

Here we have November's brand new "Baby Of The Month"!
This is beautiful Meg, 7 months, from Victoria, Australia. This photo was taken after she enjoyed a meal of silverbeet, kumara and potato!

Meg's Mum, Jenny, told us...

Meg has been a fan of everything first time around.... except apple...

Apple was going to be the taste that was going to make rice cereal more fun, more interesting, more captivating. But no, so far it has been the only thing she has refused to eat. Until that night and she had it with kumara (sweet potato)!

Since then, Meg and apple are best friends!

Jenny, thank you for very much for sending in your photograph and for telling us about Meg's adventures with solid foods!

And thank you, too, to everyone else who entered last month!

Here are some more of our favourite pictures sent in during October, along with a few words from Mum...

Dahlia, 13 months - from Delhi, India

My baby enjoys all home made salty foods!

She enjoys all vegetables mashed with rice and pulses with half a spoon of ghee added.

It gives complete nutrition according to her taste. It is easy to cook too.

Haroni, 8 months - from Ethiopia

My little angel is a very happy and healthy baby girl.

Whenever she sees us she always tries to make us laugh or smile by making a funny voice.

Her favorite meal is a mixture of different kinds of grains and seeds, prepared in a form of oatmeal with no sugar or salt.

She also enjoys eating banana and apple juice.

It seems like she does not enjoy eating avocado!

Jackson, 7 months

"Ready for Dinner!! Let's go!"

Jackson LOVES everything!!!!!

He is so excited about finger foods now and loves to feed himself.

It is no surprise that his favorite is sweet potato, as with all babies.

I can't wait to try sweet potato fingers tomorrow!

Jeshika, 8 months - from Fiji Islands

She loves khichri (made of dhal and rice with veggies). I will be giving her meat after 1 year.

She is on a vegetarian diet now. Now she is refusing the cerelac, wanting to eat solids, enjoying her feed when fed with hands, always looking to grab the bowl she is fed from!

She is fond of running away while being fed, and mum runs after her all the time!

I enjoy feeding Jeshika, because she is a very funny little kid!

She is our 2nd child and more attached to papa, my elder one is 4 yrs and loves Jeshika a lot.

Mum, papa and Jayshil love you, Jeshika! (This photograph shows Jeshika and Jayshil).
