A lot of young moms may be facing some tough and challenging time these days, with an ongoing pandemic, tiring lockdowns, extreme weather changes. Most moms also have their careers or businesses to think about, making then work on longer shifts both outside and at home. We may sometimes feel that the uncertainties are just endless, but it’s just what life is all about, right?
Thanks to Andi and Baby Koa’s post on Instagram, they just showed us that there will always be a light at the end of the tunnel, and a reason for celebrations, wherever, however, and no matter how big or small, just like being able to celebrate their first food milestone recently!
Whether you’ve just given birth to your first, or, second, or in this case, third, we can all still relate to the endless smiles that we see on this touching mother-son selfie - after all, introducing an infant to solid food is just as important to be a memorable journey in itself, and it sets up the foundation for nutrition that encourages both a mother and her baby to work closely together, while creating a deeper connection and understanding with each other as they work on their next food and development milestones.
It truly is a sight to behold once a baby is finally able to sit upright and hold up their head, while he/she chews on food puree and gains more curiosity with flavors and textures, and as time passes, they’ll finally start looking around and observe their surroundings, including the food that you’re eating!
Mommy Andi says on her post that feeding solids is the part of nurturing a baby that she’s most excited about as she offers Koa with some generous spoonfuls of squash puree. Not only does Andi help Koa explore the different tastes of nutritious food, but she also helps Koa so start working on his development skills as her baby grows. For Baby Koa, it’s a wonderful eye-opening experience to a whole new world filled with a wide variety of pureed fruits and veggies, all while helping to train his motor and muscle skills over time through chewing.
Andi’s decision to live a provinciated life was indeed a great way for her to be more sustainable and mindful when choosing better product options for her and her kids, making her an inspiring advocate for many young moms out there. Even as a celebrity, it’s no longer an unusual sight for locals to see Andi wandering along the shores and taking a dip / surfing with her youngest Koa and elder daughters Ellie and Lilo as they enjoy their daily perks of living in the quaint and carefree island of Siargao, which is truly considered to be one of the most beautiful islands in the Philippines.
Having three kids is both a rewarding and challenging experience for modern-day moms like Andi, it’s so inspiring to watch her life unfold, seeing that she is still able to spend most of her time and dedication for herself and her family.
Speaking of her busy schedule, we couldn’t be happier to see both Andi and Baby Koa savoring this moment to try solids for the first time with lots of energy! Mommy Andi said on her Instagram post that when it comes to soft food choices, she makes sure that she complements Koa’s homemade baby food with stocks of GERBER® on hand. That’s certainly an opportunity for Andi to take some time off from additional food prep so she can take advantage of having more bonding moments with her baby using first food milestone alternatives that are not only convenient but also simply nutritious. Just seeing Andi’s great confidence in GERBER®'s all-natural, preservative free blend of 100% fruits and veggies surely keeps Baby Koa wanting for more!
Aside from offering both fruit and veggie options for babies who are about to start with their first solids, there are more facts about GERBER® that most moms may not be aware of. Aside from it being a worldwide trusted brand with over 90 years’ worth of experience, GERBER® also practices sustainable farming methods, and the fruits and veggies that go into every jar are all-natural without any added sugars, colors or flavors! It’s a great choice for moms who are going above and beyond to provide the best nutrition to their little one, only because they simply deserve it!
Wishing all the love and the best for Andi and Baby Koa!
