    how much spice can babies handle??? made chilli last night, gave A a taste and she loved it, dont know if she could eat a bowl full tho, OH said it doesnt have a kick but he eats all sorts, i could feel a bit of heat.

    could mix a bit of yoghurt in, but would munch bunch work haha ??

    And thanks for the info re the doctors.

    Glam, MFD, will both of you ladies be in attendence next week to meet gorgoeus Alex in the flesh. So I can also get a fix of Benjamins real life smiley grins and marvel at Jacks progress and use him to motivate my lazy baby.

    I am very much hoping so (otherwise Krystal will kill me)


    Now Benjamin has his jabs on Tuesday I need to juggle a few things to make it happen because I won't be able to have 2 days off together. I am trying to get hubby to take him for his jabs, but he is is Newcastle the night before so it means he has to be back to pick Benjamin up from the CM at 11.30am. Then I either need Benjamin to go back to CM, stay with daddy all day or get MIL to take him for the afternoon.

    He has been fine after every other jab but I hear the MMR is the worst of them all...MIL may be the best option with daddy and me 'on call' if he is a little bit poorly or upset.

    I feel a bit sad that it might not be me taking him though...although when I mooted the idea with hubby he seemed quite chuffed that I asked him!!

    Unless for some unknown reason I can't drive but seen as I feel tons better today I am pretty sure I will be able to!

    We have an extra creche session Tuesday morning where I will stay with him and then he's going 7.30am til 2pm Thursday & Friday ON HIS OWN :eek:

    Tried contacing my new boss yesterday but she never rang back. I'm starting in less than 2 weeks and wanted to at least touch base with her! Might try her again now

    Just let her try. I let Benjamin eat curry (although nothing too hot but only because I don't eat it that hot!). As far as I know there is no reason why they shouldn't enjoy spicy food.

    With a 10 year old DSS who won't touch anything even slightly spicy I am determined that Benjamin won't end up so fussy. The sooner he eats exactly what we eat the better as far as I am concerned.

    Helloooooo. X

    Maddy has spicy stuff, Ben has always had it and still loves it. Makes me laugh how he gulps the water and waves a hand in front of his mouth, then says yummy and gobbles it down.
    Too many children, too little time!!!
    :p
