Creating Healthy Eating Habits with Miniware

February 6, 2019

I can’t believe Olivia is old enough to eat solid foods!  It has been so exciting watching her try new things and to create healthy eating habits.  She has the funniest facial expressions and reactions to foods.  But, man, meals are a mess!  Olivia is super independent and she insists on feeding herself which means food goes everywhere.  The bowls sometimes end up on the floor, too.  Who knew she has such a great throwing arm?

Healthy Eating Habits:

When Miniware reached out to try out their uber chic baby friendly dishes I immediately said yes.  For one reason– they stick to the table or highchair tray!  I love that Olivia can’t pick them up and throw them on the floor.  The dishes are also beautiful in design with soft muted colors of cream, pink, gray and blue.  I have the mini-hipster set!  Such a cute name.

We started using them right away.  I like to give Olivia different options of food so she is exposed early to texture, color, and flavors.  Just like her Daddy, she HATES for her foods to touch.  I use the Miniware plate insert to keep her foods from touching.  So far she will eat almost anything.  Olivia has so much fun with the spoon.  It is just soft enough that she doesn’t hurt herself when she bites it and the handle is easy for her to grab and hang onto.  The experience of watching her find foods she loves is so fun.

We do a lot of eggs, fruit, steamed vegetables and bread straight from our local bakery.  I even bought a fun chart of 100 foods before one to keep track of everything we have tried.  So far the only thing Olivia hates is peaches and turkey.   Her favorite foods are mango and breadsticks.

Two of my goals for 2019 are to be more eco-conscious and to create healthy eating habits.  I recycle but I also want to know where my footprint is in more aspects of my life.  When I learned Miniware was made from natural and non-toxic materials, 40% Bamboo fiber, 40% Starch, Emulsion and Silicone, I knew this was the baby dishes I wanted.  They also LAST from 4-months old until we are ready to move to grown-up dishes.  Just pop off the suction cups to make them “big kid” approved. 🤣

Checkout Miniware  and let me know your tips or ideas for new meals for Olivia.

About Me

I started Haute Beauty Guide in 2008 as a way to stay in touch with my skincare clients between appointments. At first, I only covered skincare but HBG grew with me as my life evolved— from traveling around the world, heading back to college after taking a long break, buying our first home, to getting my first gray hair! Monterey is my home and I take the lifestyle here to heart.

You my sweet girl dream BIG nothing is out of reac You my sweet girl dream BIG nothing is out of reach. 

I’m not @kamalaharris biggest fan but watching her take the oath of office while hold I have my two-year-old little girl I realize just how big her future dreams can be. So many emotions were brought up today. My grandmother immigrated here 66 years ago after she was thrown out of her family for constantly dreaming too big. She told me everyday I could be anything I wanted.  Grandma was adamant that I studied what I wanted, travel where I wanted and be what I want. She made that possible for me. 

I wish she could see the first woman Vice President sworn in today.
Just living in these @jennikayne cardigans.
