We are on a much needed vacation this week -- hooray. On this first leg of our two part trip we are visiting my folks (Grammie & Popop Flava) in Pennsylvania. This is particularly special because my brother and his fiance are in town. They live in Wyoming so it is not often that they have a chance to spend some quality time with BF.
This afternoon we walked into town to get some exercise and to get out of the house for lunch. We popped into the local bagel shop for our meal and ordered BF a turkey sandwich with grilled veggies on wheat bread. Of course, we cut everything up into baby friendly pieces but she had a grand old time sitting on her uncle's lap being hand fed by Popop -- life couldn't get any better.
At the end of the meal we packed up to walk some more but BF still seemed hungry. I didn't want to give her any more turkey so my sister-in-law (to be) said that she had some freeze-dried apples BF could snack on. She pulled out this small bag of Brothers All Natural fuji apple slices. My sister-in-law got the fruit from her mom who thought it would be great to take along on a hike. Because the fruit is freeze dried, it literally melts in your mouth and she figured it would work well for the baby.
As you can imagine the apples were perfect for BF. The bigger pieces she could hold onto and bite. The smaller pieces she just popped into her mouth! I thought this was a great (and creative) way to get her some fruit when we are on the go. Plus, this is a good change of pace from the Baby Mum-Mums, which she loves but I feel iffy about because they are not organic and made in China.
Check out the Brothers All Natural website, they have a nice series of dried fruit products. We just placed a big order for BF!
