Day 1 of Pumpkin Puree

Today is the first time I am giving my boy pumpkin puree. Pumpkin is nutritious. I did not buy one whole pumpkin because it will be too big. Now in supermarket, they are selling 1/4 to 1/2 size pumpkin. So I bought those. I cut the pumpkin into smaller size and wash them up. I steamed the pumpkin together with the skin for about 15-20 minutes. After that I scraped out the flesh and grind/blend it into puree. I added 1 tablespoon of rice cereal into the puree and use breastmilk to thin the puree.
