What Do I Give for Snack Time?

Because my one year old is now super active in terms of walking and sometimes trying to run (feeling nya kaya na nya lol!) aside from his milk and water I see to eat that he has snacks in between his regular meals but what can we actually give for snacks? May I share with you what I opted to have for his snack time, this is Organics Happy Baby Super Food Puffs what we have is the Strawberry and Beet flavor and no I am not into pure Organic eating for my little one. Well for starters we were buying his baby food at 6 months old from Healthy Options and he loved it until he outgrew them and would just want to join us on our regular meals (which made me an inventor to create meals which has vegetables etc, maybe to feature on my next post) so anyways, I did bought this just because I don't want him to be exposed this early to regular junk food or chichirya that is too salty and not healthy at all.

The price may come off a bit hard on the budget it is about Php250 but we give him this in moderation, when he is bored or hungry and not in the mood, his snack perks him up and excites him again. Healthy Options carries a lot of baby and toddler food that may seem expensive at first but the quality and quantity will go a long way, believe me I am a mom who keeps track of the budget. Try other flavors too, next time we'll get the yellow, ornge or purple packaging (not sure of the flavors lol!) but will surely write about them or update this post when we have it. As my husband would usually say when I am in doubt because it is kinda pricey "all the best for our baby".

The Nanay in Me

This blog seemed quiet for sometime now, but it was because of a very good reason, I entered another life changing stage called motherhood!

As a first time mom, I was overwhelmed in balancing everything, from feeding to taking care of baby's needs, to taking care of myself and the husband as well. But I realized that I should be calm and time management is still the best solution. I did some observations on baby's sleeping habits, whenever he is hungry, what I can do during his nap time and to not panic whenever I think I can't make him stop crying. Indeed mother and child connection helps a lot.

I am currently at home and learning things as days go by, I also experienced the so called "post partum blues" maybe it was about 2 weeks that I can't understand myself, I cried, I was worried that baby was feeling my slight depression as well. From all the usual daily activities that I did back then, everything came to a halt and the baby was the top priority. I am blessed and thankful that I have my mom to actually look after our little one whenever I need to take some breather and when I'm too tired to get him to sleep. My husband on the other hand was always ready to hug and listen to my qualms and blurts out some laughs on some of my "drama" but I believe I am now ok and got through with it all.

But of course parents would want the best for their babies and as a new mom I am still on the search for products that are good, affordable and safe for our baby. So I am asking for some help from mommies  and dear readers if you can suggest tips and brands that are good for our baby. I am currently using Pampers as his diaper, Pigeon for his feeding bottle and wipes and Enfant. What other babay care products do I need to use and are a must for baby? Please do share on the comment box below. Thanks moms!
