MSE Parents Club Part 9

I was away doing a tesco order, overspent but I think I have enough meat for 2 weeks if I plan careful like.

And Amber was watching The Hairy Bikers, she is fascinated with food preparation, we reckon it's all the time spent in the coffee shop. She likes to sit up on one of the counters and watch nana, papa and Uncle L prep the food. Today she lunged at scones too, I don't blame her, they were maple syrup! (so got them to order me a big bag of craig millar scone mix)

oh another thing happened today gay OH lied to why he needed to leave work (he worked in the same place as philip but left just as philip started) but texted saying could you pick up his payslip .. what he hadnt told us is that he told them he was still in hospital and nearly landed philip in !!!!!! so not happy with him .. philip thought quick didnt ask for the payslip and said he hadnt heard from him .. really hope this year gets better x

So much for routine! :mad:

Was doing the rice for tea and came in and OH was giving Jack a bottle :eek: - 'Cos he was hungry' he was supposed to have it after his bath. He did drink it all but I am annoyed cos it has taken me 40 minutes to get it him down and I've ended up putting him on his tummy. IT's the only way he'll go off during the day on his own and the only way he would go down tonight. I tried to turn him but he started crying again.

Am a bit worried about him being on his tum (paranoid, I Know!) so will probably check on him loads and then pop him on his back after his DF.

After my moan about him not rolling - he's actually started to try. He manages to get his !!!!! in the air but can't quite get over :rotfl:

Lady - we have Fifa on PS3 or shooty games or racing :cool: Does my swede in :mad:

Glam, Amber has a funny way of rolling over, although she won't do it anymore. She can almost sit unaided though.

Speaking of dream feeds, have you tried cutting Jacks out to see if he will sleep through yet? Or are you going to continue it to a certain time and then wean him off it? I've never done it with any of mine, just waiting and if they woke they got fed, if not they didn't.

I don't mind ps3 games too much, just would be nice to play ones I could join in with sometimes. Mind you, at least it means he doesn't want the laptop

I think I must have broken the thread!

I'm trying to work out what I'm doing in the way of food for Izzy's party on Sunday. I'm planning:

egg sarnies (and maybe tuna or cheese ones too)
cheese cubes
peas
grapes
rasins
cocktail sausages & maybe sausage rolls too
baby crisps (those organix ones... I will avoid the carrot flavour though!)
breadsticks
plus a small plate of chocolate fingers & party rings (with some extras for the grown ups!)
jelly & ice-cream
birthday cake (MIL is making a maka-paka one )

Does that sound about right? Anything obvious I have forgotten? I'm planning to only have things that the babies can have too, and do it in enough quantities for the babies to have them for tea, and the grown-ups can nick some, rather than having separate grown-up snacks. Not sure if that is a good idea, or if would be better to have some separate snacks in case the grown-ups eat everything before tea time?!

whats maka paka

hmm not sure whether to expect grizzly baby tonight as well. Was generally sleepy all day but has (FINGERS CROSSED) been quite a good boy today.

scratch that, just heard him crying from the bedroom, not 10 minutes after we put him down :rolleyes:
