We had fajita's yesterday Charlotte is addicted to guacamole so she was happy. I put all the bits out on the table and everyone makes their own up and she loves doing that.

Eat a lot of spicy food here and they all got weaned straight onto spicy food. Made me giggle when we had my brother and SIL over and got take away curry and SIL said the jalfrezi was much to hot for her. Her eyes nearly popped out of her head when 8 month old Charlotte got on my knee, dipped some garlic naan in the jalfrezi sauce and ate it :rotfl:

Mam has just collected them all and I feel a bit tearful. I'm going to miss them this weekend. Just having a quick cuppa, then off to get ready to go out.

Has anyone had the discovery fajitas? They are the ones that are on the 'feed four for £4' offer at the CO-OP.

They are lush

Anyone got any tips on how to shop in asda while pushing a pram, what on earth will I do with the basket?

Put the shopping in the pram - that's what I used to do for the local shop when we used a pram when Alice was small.

I would suggest sling and trolley but unless you are very close to the shop it might be a lot of work carrying the shopping home with baby in the sling. I used to do it with Alice from four months to when she walked but it was pretty close so not too bad.

Although I have noticed in our Asda, a bit of a pram park outside the toilets where i'm assuming people have walked to Asda, parked up the pram and put baby into the trolley to shop? I'm not sure i'd leave my precious pram there though.

Isn't that what bike locks are for?

Actually, if I was properly :money: I'd have bought them in a neutral colour, but I'm sick of people confusing her for a boy :mad:

Alice got mistaken for a boy wearing all pink except for pink/purple flowery shoes and a neutral wooly hat. And she was wearing a dress. (And the person who made the mistake had met her before.)

weirdly I was just thinking about holidays too. Mostly the annual ski trip and how having #3 would affect that, tbh I don't think we could afford it and that makes me for the kids

I'm sure there are plenty of other things that you can find to do which they'll enjoy just as much. I've never been on a ski trip and I don't feel like I've been deprived.

Idris' mum gave me two huge 2.2kg leg of lamb :eek: They won't even fit in the slo cooker. No clue what to do with them as I'm too cheap to pay that price for some meat!!

If you've got a saw you could cut them in half.

EA, I love discovery fajitas!

Right you clever lot, I need a little poem to go on Nieces hamper. She is 13 tomorrow and I have made her a little shopaholic hamper, http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/tiamai/005-1.jpg

It contains -

Little fairy doll (because DH said he would buy her a baby doll)
FCUK cosmetic purse with some cash, body spray and 2 lip glosses
Foot gel and Foot soak
Notebook and mini shopping bag
(from the boots 75% sale )

So, she is 13 and very strict Christian, but a serious shopper. Any ideas?

What do you mean still showing on online account? As in still in Quidco? Has the money gone from received to paid? Click on your Payments tab at the top and it'll give you a date for payment.
Make sure you have your limit for bacs payment transfer set to £0 or they hold onto it til theres £50 or summit like that.

The funniest ever artiicle about breastfeeding I've ever read: http://www.kidcityny.com/breastfeeding-in-the-land-of-genghis-khan/
(It's not partisan - it's just about the experience of a Canadian breastfeeding in Mongolia.)
