"Hey Lauren, ke kauoha neiʻo Momma e lawe i waho i kēia pō, pehea kouʻano?"
"ʻO ka mea me ka moa a me ka saladi a me ka pīpī."
ʻAe, he kūkākūkā kēia e hana nei i kēlā me kēia manawa a mākou e kauoha ai e lawe. ʻAʻole makemake kaʻu keiki eʻelima makahiki i ka pizza a me ka meaʻai a me ka lihi (ʻoiaiʻo ia ka noi mai kaʻu mau makahikiʻelua), makemakeʻo ia i ka'ōpala moa me ka saladi mai ka Modern Market. I kekahi manawa, haʻiʻo ia iāʻoeʻo kāna meaʻai nui loaʻo ia "nā pepa me ka moa i loko a me nā meaʻono a pau," (iʻikeʻia hoʻiʻo ka pepa o kaʻolo) a uaʻike wau iā ia e pale ana i kahi nui o Szechuan. puaa me nā zucchini noodles.

Malia paha kekahi mea aʻu i hāʻawi ai i kēlā me kēia, malia paha ua loaʻa iaʻu ka laki. Malia paha he liʻiliʻi o nā meaʻelua. ʻO nā mea a pau kaʻu eʻike nei he makemake au i ka meaʻai - makemake au i kaʻaiʻana i ka meaʻai, kaʻaiʻana i ka meaʻai, kaʻaiʻana i nā meaʻai, a me kaʻike i nā mea hou. A makemake au e hana i nā mea a pau e hiki iaʻu ke hoʻomohala i kēlā mea i kaʻu mau keiki.
Ke hoʻokomo nei i ka meaʻai i ko lākou wā kamaliʻi
Ua aʻo wau e pili ana Baby Led Weaning (i kapaʻiaʻo Baby Led Feeding) maikaʻi ma mua o ka loaʻaʻana o kaʻu mau keiki pono'ī - he mau hoaʻai meaʻai ka mea nāna i hana me kā lākou mau keiki me nā manaʻo i mahalo loa iaʻu. Ke hāpai nei wau e nānā i ka pūnaewele a iʻole e kiʻi mai i ka puke mai ka hale waihona puke no nāʻike hou aku, akāʻo ka mea nui kēia:
- ʻO nā mea e like me ka hānai pēpē a me nā mamaes ke aʻoʻana i nā'ōpiopio e ale iho ma mua o ko lākou aʻoʻana e hōʻoki i ka wā e kū'ē ai - pono nā keiki e hānai i kaʻai, a laila eʻai.
- Nui, maʻalahi ka hopuʻana i nā meaʻai e hiki ai i nā pēpē ke hoʻopaʻa iā lākou iho i ka hana / hoʻoluʻolu e hoʻoikaika i kēia manaʻo, a ua hōʻaluʻia nā puree (no ka mea,ʻaʻole loa kaʻu keiki iʻai i ka meaʻai, akā,ʻo ka mea kokoke loa he mau'ōmaʻapeʻa aiʻole yogurt).
- E hoʻomaka me nā mea paʻakikī e hōʻoki i nā'āpana, e hana wikiwiki i kou ala i nā meaʻaiʻoi aku.
- E kali i kahi manawa lōʻihi e wehewehe i nā kaulike (e pili ana i nā mahinaʻeono), no laila, ua lawa ka huiʻana o nā pēpē e noho i luna a pale i nā meaʻai paʻakikī.
- Mai ka hoʻomakaʻana, komo i nāʻano meaʻai likeʻole i ka manawa hoʻokahi, e hāʻawi ana i nā kohoʻana o nā pēpē e pili ana i kā lākou mea eʻai ai.
No laila, i ka halaʻana oʻeono mau mahina me kaʻu mau'ōpio, ua hele mākou i nā'āpana - hoʻomaka mākou me nā pōhaku nui o ka bele, nā huaʻikuʻa a pau, nā'ōkena kukume, nā'ōhū asparagus, nā mango, a hele i nā mea e like me nā huʻi nui o ka maiʻa. nā lāʻau, nā kīkī graham, a me nā mea'ē aʻe.ʻO nā meaʻono a Bellene a me nā mango, he mea maʻamauʻo Lauren -ʻo ia ke'ōʻana ma luna o lākou a holoi i nā wai a pau ma ka waiho waleʻana i kaʻili o ka pepa a me kaʻiʻo o ka mango.
Noho mau nā keiki i kaʻainaʻaina me mākou,ʻoiai i ka hoʻomakaʻana i ka'ō'ō waleʻana i nā ihe kukama a iʻole i kahi'āpana manu. Makemake mākou eʻike lākou iā mākou 
ʻai, eʻono i ka mea a mākou eʻai nei. Ma ka mahinaʻehiku aʻewalu, e hoʻomaka mau ana lākou e kuhikuhi i nā mea ma luna o kā mākou mau papa, me he mea lā e'ōlelo ana lākou "'Ee, uaʻike wau eʻai anaʻoe i kahi meaʻaʻole wau, makemake au i kekahi!" No laila, hoʻomaka mākou e komo i ka nui aʻoi aku o kā mākou ʻo kaʻai ma kā lākou mau papa. I kēlā me kēia manawa mākou i hoʻokomo i kahi meaʻai hou, ua hoʻokomo pū mākou i kahi meaʻelua iʻoi aku ka maʻalahi -ʻo kahi lāʻau līlū a me kahi līlū aiʻoleʻelua, heʻokoʻa me kekahi spaghetti a me ka meatball, a pēlā aku.
I ko mākou neʻeʻana i nā meaʻai, ua ho'āʻo mākou e hoʻokomo i nāʻano meaʻai likeʻole. Hāʻawi mākou iā lākou iʻelua aʻekolu mau mea i kēlā me kēia manawa, a makemake lākou eʻae i nāʻanoʻokoʻa likeʻole (e makemake ana i kahi'ōmaʻa o nā meaʻai āpau, pololei?), Nā mea leʻaleʻa (kekahi mau momona, kekahi mau kepau, kekahi momona), a me nāʻanoʻokoʻa (paʻakai, meaʻono, meaʻono, a pēlā aku). Aʻo ka mea nui,ʻaʻole mākou i kāpae 
inā makemake lākou e ho'āʻo i kekahi mea -ʻoiaiʻo ia ka lemon i loko o koʻu wai a ma kahi haleʻaina, aiʻole he'ōwili o ka'ōwili paʻakai i ka manawa o ka sushi e hele i ka pō, aiʻole kaʻai mau i ka iwi.
Akā, e pono e hānai iā lākou ma mua o ka hikiʻana iā lākou ke kamaʻilio ((ʻoi aku paha, o anakuhi i hope) he maʻalahi. Inā makemakeʻole lākou i kahi mea, hiki iā lākou ke hana i kahi maka a hoʻolei paha i kā lākou pahu, akā pehea e mau ai kēia mau manaʻo i ka wā'ōpiopio a me nā makahiki kula?
E hoʻi mai i loko o nā hebedomaʻelua a e māhele wau i ka hana a mākou i kaʻaina ahiahi - he aha ka mea e hele ai i ka pāʻani, ka mea hana, a me ka hope-dinner.
