Baby Food Grinders

Lydia is really starting to eat anything we give her (except for the obvious peanut butter, honey, etc.), which is so convenient when it comes to eating meals together. We don't have a baby food grinder, and it's so difficult smashing the food up small enough with my fork. I've thought about using my blender.. but that's too difficult to clean as often we I'd use it. So, I've done some research. Option #1

Option #2

I'm currently leaning towards the food processor. I could use it for more than just baby food and it seems like it'd be easier to clean. The disadvantage is that it wouldn't be convenient to take with my anywhere like the handheld grinder. Do any of you have experience with using either of these? I need input. Thanks!

Mommy Brain...

I've had several "I'm losing my mind" moments lately. Basically, I just think my brain is so preoccupied. I'm never thinking about what I'm doing.. my mind is somewhere else. This morning I put conditioner on my loofa instead of soap. And a couple days ago I went downstairs with a hamper of dirty clothes to put in the washer. So, I put the clothes that were in the washer into the dryer. Then, inexplicably, I picked up the hamper of dirty clothes and started walking back up the stairs. I got halfway up the stairs when I realized I not only didn't push start on the dryer.. but I didn't put the clothes from hamper into the washer! Oh dear..
