Baby Of The Month - Previous Winners

Aidan, 7 months - from Newton, MA, USA

Aidan loves to eat! He especially enjoys avocados and greek yogurt.

He loves sitting in his red chair that attaches to the table so he can be part of the meal with the entire family.

Anjana, 8 months - from London, United Kingdom

Anjana is known for her cute smile which she offers to anyone she sees. Her world revolves round her brother (Arjun aged 4) and she started to recognise his voice even at a very early stage. She very rarely cries and that too fades when she sees her brother.

The happiest thing I like to do is to slide her bedroom curtains every morning to see her get up with a beautiful smile on her face.

She has started off with her solid foods and she loves to eat. I stumbled across this site and am going to definitely try the recipes given here. Thanks for being helpful!

Avveer, 7 months - from Ludhiana, India

Avveer is a cute little 7 month old. He's a happy and an active baby and loves being around people. He enjoys his toys and is very responsive to being played with. His recent feather in the cap is that he's very cutely learnt to give a hi-five.

Avveer (touch wood) is not a food fussy baby.

I started him on solids at 6 months. I started with mashed banana and lentil soup and have now moved on to giving him baby porridge in the morning, mashed banana or stewed apple in the evening and khidchdi at night. His khidchdi is a mixture of boiled rice, lentil, carrots and bottle gourd - each ingredient added as per the 4 day trial rule.

He loves all of the above and in fact I wanted to know what other vegetables are recommended for Avveer's age group and the website has been very helpful in educating me on this. I am looking forward to trying all the other recipes listed here.

Jatin, 1 year - from Bangalore, India

Jatin is very active and plays and laughs a lot. Jatin wants to eat by himself. We will give him idly, dosa, upma, vada etc. We just cut it into small pieces and give them to him one by one. He takes it, chews and swallows. Grapes (green or black) are his favorites. He likes finely hand mashed cooked rice with some dal, which is plain or cooked with some leafy vegetable and tomato rasam or plain rasam. He also loves eating yogurt as it is.

He likes sipping tea, it's his favourite. He asks for it when we are sipping... he holds the cup and sips. He drinks water holding a glass. I never used a water bottle or a baby bottle continuously - he is not used to it. He also eat biscuits and home made snacks.

Jayla, 6 months - from Bangkok, Thailand

My little girl Jayla will stare at you and your food if you are eating something around her! At the same time, her mouth will be moving like chewing and watering. That is how interested she is in food. So much like her mommy, she loves to eat and is not really a fussy eater so far.

I started giving solids after she was 4 months old and only rice cereal with milk was given in that time. After 5 months, she started having pureed fruits and vegies, chicken soup and fish soup. She loves mashed banana and pureed pumpkin the most.

I've found this website now and I am going to make more home-made baby food for my baby. I am excited and have enjoyed learning from this website.

Maska, 7 months - from Jakarta, Indonesia

Maska is a Javanesse baby, his skin is dark like "sawo matang" (as the Indonesian people say).

Maska loves cheese so much, whatever foods he eats should be mixed with cheese. And Maska's favourite fruit is "Jeruk Medan" or Medan's Orange. For vegetables, Maska eat all the kinds we have given him, such as broccoli, zucchini, carrots etc.

I think the reason Maska eats all of those vegetables is because their tastes are covered by the cheese!

Niņa Cassandra, 10 months - from Manila, Philippines

Niņa loves EVERYTHING, and I have had so much fun making food for her!

She is extremely active and always on the lookout for something new. She also loves trying out new food items and is always more interested in what's on our plates rather than her own.

Our little angel enjoys anything and everything! She is not a picky eater at all! She is enjoying solid foods a lot but still loves to eat cerelac and oatmeal. Her favorite fruit is avocado.

Sean from Wellington, OH, USA

We started feeding Sean solid foods at 5 months. His favorite foods are vegetables, especially sweet potatoes. Now it seems as though we can feed him fast enough at meal time.

We were spending a lot of money on jar foods. He cant seem to get the stage 3 foods down pat yet. Then I received my monthly packet from Similac. In the packet they gave a recipe from your site, and I decided to check it out.

All in all Im so glad and thankful for finding this site. It's going to save a lot of time and money in the long run!

Taylee, 6 months - from Spokane, WA, USA

So far so good!

She seems to have taken to solid foods very well and even has a few favorites. She really likes her blueberry and apple desserts, and chicken and rice.

She, however, does not like turkey. She would spit and make all sorts of funny faces. We tried a second time just for good measure but she wasn't having any of it!
