I'm planning on restructuring the blog to share some of what I've learned as a new mama, and feeding is a great place to start!
Best tip for mealtimes? Keep a stack of old t-shirt scraps close at hand to wipe little hands and faces with!
I take my husband's old t-shirts (if they have a hole, they're MINE!) and cut them into 8 pieces:
each sleeve yields a rag, and the body is large enough to cut into three pieces, using widthwise cuts. I then cut those in half using the side seams, and get 6 more pieces. I keep them folded in an old utensil crock right next to the high chair for easy access. They're also invaulable when it comes to washing - you can bleach them as much or as often as you want. Carrots don't seem to come out of ANYTHING, and I don't want to ruin the cute burp rags by bleaching them, so this is a happy alternative :)
