These were really yummy. You could make them for yourself even if you don't have a baby to feed. I, however, made these specifically for my little Bean. Speaking of my little bean, have I mentioned how wild and wiggly he is lately? An omen of things to come, right? The other day he was crawling with purpose and rather than go around Tina, he went straight over her. Just crawled up over her back without skipping a beat. What a good dog to just sit there and watch him do it.

Mini muffins - 350 for 15-17 minutes
Full Sized Muffins - I didn't bake any myself, but someone commented on the original recipe that it took 20ish minutes for full sized muffins
* For sweet potato, bake ahead of time at 400 for 1 hr. Or dice and cook in a pressure cooker with a touch of water for 8 minutes or until done)
And in other news, we got a piano. I think it's fabulous. Isaac likes it too and pulls himself up to play on a few keys several times a day.
