what sofia eats, v.1


      grape tomatoes, avocado, grilled veggie burger and annie's cheddar bunnies      


      green seedless grapes with pancakes      


      cheddar potato pierogis, tangerine slices, garlic pearled couscous with corn         
Diapers & Skinny Jeans will be slowly introducing more and more new, original content over the next coming weeks, and I'm excited to announce I'm bringing back the "What Sofia Eats" portion of the blog to you.  (Especially since it doesn't consist of rice cereal and mashed bananas anymore!) 

Since I started a bit late, I only have three meals to show you this week-- but, I'm hoping to catch every meal for the next seven days.  I know I've personally struggled at times with finding inspiration for kiddo meals, so I figure if anyone else out there has run into a similar problem, hopefully these meals can give you something new to try with your little one.  We've been pretty lucky that Sofia will try most anything once, though certain things like broccoli or peas are still a big "ick!"

PS- thank you for all of your great discussion on yesterday's seasonal post.  It is so wonderful when you all chime in and share your own personal stories.  I truly enjoyed reading every last one of them!

    Thank you for starting up this series again! It can be hard coming up with new meals weekly for my little one. I need all the inspiration I can get : )

    Oh, and I noticed Sofia's White Sox shirt! I'm from the Chicago area but, sadly I don't live in Illinois anymore : /

    What a small world! Illinois is great, but I'm not sure that I'm ready for our Chicago winter quite yet. Thankfully it seems to be headed in a mild direction so far.

    Fantastic! I'm always looking out for new ideas except I have a fussy 4 year old that I'm trying to UN-fussy! I have to say that as of last Wednesday she is finally eating broccoli! My trick? Serve it every night :)

    What beautiful meals you are creating for your babe! Our little people eat anything and I really believe it's because of the variety of food we have exposed them too. Well done Mumma! Wishing you a delightful week.

    my favourite thing about feeding the kids is chopping everything into bite sized portions and separating them. Even salad must me served by colour!

    As for baby/kid food- fritters are a healthy fave here. My friends and I always joke that 'you can fritt anything'!

Week 27 Update

Hello fellow internet peoples.  Decided to give a HD video update for the beginning of my third trimester.  (WE SO EXCITED!)  It was a ton of fun to make, this time we were at home in Chicago.  Erick had a bunch of lighting equipment after all the interviews he did with the chicago school councils, so before he had to ship them back we took full advantage ;)  I'm learning more about codec and h.264 and prores 422 and although it makes absolutely no sense to me, maybe it will be useful knowledge in the future.  What do I know? It was obviously a very gesture laden, emotional, 10 minute interview.  I hope you all enjoy it.  It really is longer than I expected but instead of completely chopping it up, I decided to leave it how it is.  It's pure, natural, pregnant-y goodness of brain farts, odd humor, and searching for the right words.  If you make it to the end, remind me to give you a gold star or something.  I'll do it. ** A ...

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.
