I think far too many women don't ask enough of their husbands. If you are doing EVERYTHING while they play video games and watch football, something is wrong with that scenario.

Yeah, I agree. My husband does just as much parenting related stuff as I do. Possibly more as he does pickup/drop off at daycare so I can go to the gym. Neither of us have hobbies anymore. He will go pick up our BWW carry out so he can have a beer at the bar. That's "going out" for him.

I agree 100%
I also agree. I feel like men (or anyone!) will do nothing if they can, I mean it's easier and I feel like men are often more oblivious to stuff than women.
So I just tell him to do this, do that. I just hand him the baby and then disappear for a while.
If she wakes at night and he's still awake he'll pretend he doesn't hear it so I will say, hey will you go deal with her. Etc.
It's hard enough being a mother, without being two parents at once. I know single parents have no choice and I think that is very hard, to be a single parent. But I think one parent being a single parent, when there are two parents in the house is not right IMO.

Totally. And I admit there have been times on TB and maybe even here (only recalling vaguely) that I wanted to tell ladies to DTMFA.
Camden is obsessed with the show Super Why, and I think its awesome and adorable. Although, I DON'T like that now the only thing that will keep his attention long enough to drink his bottle is watching the theme song on my phone over and over.

Edie watches Super WHY everyday. She also knew all her letters out of order (as in...not the alphabet song) by 25 months. I thank Super WHY for that.

Ella is obsessed with Super Why. It's definitely a cute show!
The cost is a big difference. It's $1.79 I think for the pouches I buy. But I can make an entire ice cube tray of organic food for about 1 dollar.
I made zucchini avocado puree the other day, that was expensive because I think it was over $2 for a single organic avocado. I wonder if this is why organic babyfood doesn't seem to come in avocado, because it's expensive?
I can't say whether or not jars/pouches are less nutritious than homemade because a)I don't study food from a microscopic level to analyze its nutritional breakdown and make comparisons. I'm sure people do this and there are studies? But I haven't done any research. And b) I assume that the nutritional content of fruit or vegetable varies from piece to piece and likewise from jar to jar, pouch to pouch, brand to brand.
I do think that whatever you choose (be it jars, pouches, homemade, organic or not) probably will not have a huge or measurable impact on your childs development. I think we all do the best we can given our circumstances and short of starving your child or making obvious poor choices (like throwing a maccy ds burger fries and milkshake in the food processor and filling their ice cube trays with that), all our kiddos will probably be just fine.
I think there is no difference between organic jar/pouch food than pureeing your own.
My kid sure thinks there's a difference. I can't get the texture right, apparently. She barfs the minute my homemade food hits her mouth.
This is us too. Not the barfing part, per se, but I have a much harder time getting A to eat my purees over the jarred stuff. He is super sensitive to textures apparently... he also won't eat yogurt melts, puffs, mum-mums, anything in the mesh bag, and on, and on... BLW was a total fail for us ;D

Really? Thats awesome! I definitely like this show a lot more than others!!! He can watch Super Why all he wants :-)

I very much agree with this. My husband does just as much as I do at home.

My theory on why there's no jarred avocado is that the color issue keeps them from doing it. Avocados turn grody colors when processed. I'd love to know what they do to say, Wholly Guacamole to keep it from being brown in the packages.

I've never seen organic food that contained banana that was yellow. The only ones I've seen were pouches and they were mixed with stuff, so they weren't yellow.

I assume that it is because they put the guac in a package that is vacuum sealed and air tight. No air leads to no oxidation. I love Avocado's Number from Trader Joes.

A million times this. There have been many, many times where I've wondered "where the f*** did you find this guy?!" It does, however, make me appreciate H more and not take for granted the fact that we are managing to actually co-parent this child. (well, as much as you can truly co-parent when you're BFing)

Are your Wholly Guacamole products truly all-natural? No preservatives?Would we lie to you? Of course not! Our Products are truly all-natural. We use a technology called High Pressure Process. HPP a process of preserving foods through the use of high-pressure water, rather than with heat or chemicals. HPP is what makes our guacamole taste so yummy without any preservatives or additives having to be added. Oh, by the way... we don't just use this process for the heck of it. Our founder pioneered this process and now we're the world's largest user of HPP! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why is the Fresherized process superior to other forms of food preservation?Fresherized is an all-natural process. Lots of other food preservation methods use heat, chemicals and other processes that can ultimately damage natural flavors. Fresherized merely uses water at very high pressures. This process kills naturally occurring bacteria that can cause food deterioration and affects food safety, including salmonella, while at the same time preserving taste, texture and natural vitamins. That’s how we get a great tasting product without jamming it full of chemicals and preservatives.

I put some lime juice in my avocado puree and it doesn't seem bad after being defrosted. The avocado zucchini was just green, but I've made avocado banana and frozen that and only a little discoloration on the very top (where the air gets it). After defrosting it is fine and doesn't look gross.
