Eli's First Egg Yolk

I love that my sister has 3 kids and shares her wealth of knowledge through her experiences.  In addition, something is definitely working because I adore watching my nieces and nephew flourish.  They are so healthy and active, and it all started from day 1.

With that being said, I learned from Ali about the egg yolk.  This is a great first food that is iron rich - which is what babies need, and way better than rice cereal.  I have read in several places that rice cereal/grains are very difficult for babies to digest during the first year, and the ingredients are not all that great.  With that being said, we have decided to start with the egg.  Eli devoured every last bit of the egg yolk, and he did great with a spoon. If all goes well, he will have an egg every night.  Thank you Ali for sharing!

It all started with Fran and Gerald from Organicare Farms.  We love their eggs and buy them every Sunday at the farmers market.  Thank you for sharing in Eli's first food!

I couldn't choose just one picture.  I love my little bird - he did so great!

This is the blog that goes in detail about egg yolks. I used to tease Alison about her "virtual BFF", Lindsay Leigh Bentley. However, ever since I had Eli I have followed her even more.  She provides some great incite into healthy living, natural remedies for ailments, and just living 100% pure without poisoning your body from infant to adult. Regardless if you decide to go that route or not, she provides great facts and information so that you can make an informative decision on whatever you are researching.
