Should I Prepare Seasonal Baby Food Now?

[bigpassport]

DS isn't ready for solids yet, but I was thinking that since there are so many fresh fruits in season now should I buy, prepare and freeze now? Also, any recommendations of what to buy and how to prepare? Thanks!

I wouldn't. Even in the freezer, food has a limited shelf life. I get my freezing lengths from the Super Baby Food book. There might also be info how long it is safe to store frozen baby foods on wholesomebabyfood.com. You have a good four months it seems until your DS will be ready for solids beyond rice cereal, and even then he might not be chowing them down. My DD has just in the last few weeks started eating solids in any quantity and she is 8 1/2 mos. Now she prefers food she can feed herself in little chunks so the purees that I made were never that popular.
