    That sounds delish, SM! And a good way to celebrate getting to your first goal weight. Glad you had a good day. Is Zoe away all week now?

    Glam- am I right in thinking you've swapped milks fairly recently? Could it be he's not so keen on the new milk?

    GISI - I'm trying to get him to figure out new ways of him settling her, he normally puts his head on the pillow next to her whilst she strokes his elbow - but if she's in the mood she can have him there for literally hours, whereas I can have her asleep in about 15 minutes.

    It was an easy night for him, she's had 10 minutes sleep all day on top of a late night last night, swimming this morning and shopping all afternoon - head hit the pillow and the power went off!

    SM - Ooh I love Chinese Buffets - treats are good they keep you on your diet.

    MDW- that sounds so cute. I can imagine my OH lying down with LO to get him to sleep!

    I am mucho jealous of lie ins. 7am is Henry's rising time of choice at the moment, which isn't too bad but I would love an extra hour tomorrow!

    Elbow stroking is her tiredness cue, she comes and snuggles up next you grabs your arm puts it in the position she wants and starts stroking - she sometimes gets very frustrated as our arms just won't bend how she wants!

    SM - what book I'm a complete bookworm?
