MSE Parents Club Part 12

phew all clear but were about to go and try to open eds bank account without an appointment :undecided

MFD I think the first kids meal Chris had was my birthday last year (2.5yo ish), usually get him a pasta in sauce thing which he could generally eat a bucket off, I don't get him a kids meal if it's not something we'd have at home (like cheapy yellow food stuff) in those cases I would get something like a side of garlic bread n salad or a starter.
I say wait n see what's on offer and check the portion sizes on other tables, some places give way too much for just you so sharing would make more sense.

Gisi - fab night's sleep from H! Can you get him to have a word with Isla please and explain night time is for sleeping! Last night we could hear her over the monitor blowing raspberries on the seahorses belly and 'talking' to it for an hour! She was hyper and wide awake for hours.

:A So cute!!

LOL - I was wondering about the type of food childrens meals are too! I don't give Benjamin yellow food really and whilst DSS is very good (his faves are pasta and fajitas) I hate to see him eating chicken nuggets .
CP's is normally better than average quality stuff though.

What I was really wondering was how long I can carry on sharing with him (or giving him stuff from home) before he is 'expected' to have his own meal - 2.5 sounds good to me

Good morning ladies,

Evie is sitting up on her own unsupported!!!! Only for about 15-20 seconds at a time but I think thats pretty good :j:j

Can't remember if I mentioned it but my sister was diagnosed with kidney failure in October last year and has been on dialysis daily since then. Anyway, my mum donated her kidney to her on Tuesday. Both ops went well and so far they're both doing really well. Still wait and see for my sis as she's on critical list for a week cos of possibility of rejection but so far so good. And if she's still ok after a week, then they seem to think its unlikely to be rejected :T

Anyway, off back to catch up a bit now...

Great news Maz about your sister :j....

William is about the same with sitting up:T...he tends to lean forward and look like a gorilla...He gets really frustrated now at lying down and wants to sit up all the time but you cant leave him alone for too long

Lots of good news here today Amber is about the same sitting up too, i'll post a few pics if i can get them uploaded.

Have had to start on 3 meals a day today as she's like a lil gannet. I've been giving breakfast and tea up til now. Gave her some cauli cheese for lunch and she had a bemused look on her face when she realised it was finished, so is currently destroying a banana and a biscotti in her L&G. Good job i have a dog hoover though.

I have discovered 3 sides in the kitchen, including 1 sink and 1 ceramic hob... About a quarter of the way through the job I'd say...

Caitlyn's been asleep about 3 hours... I feel like I should check on her but just know that opening the gate upstairs will be enough to wake her up...

Well done on feeding without the shields Boo! Well done for using them for this long too!! It's probably because she's a bit older now and knows a bit more of what is expected of her... It all gets a bit easier as they get older...

Ooh, I think there's a stirring upstairs...

BeenieCat

It's been a while since i posted any of Amber i think so...

Practicing sitting up, but with some propping up with blankets a couple of weeks ago...



Dog pillow LOL



Last Friday with a pillow only for emergencies while i faffed with the camera



Amber about 2 mins ago eating a biccy

Glad the sun's finally peaked out - was worried we'd be stuck inside all day! Haven't been to a baby group in eons, really must work harder at being social . I've been encouraging Finn to try and sit, but he just flops over straight away so not going to force the issue - he is a rolling machine though so this is probably distracting him from the next development, lol.

We had this too last night, 1.30am to gone past 2.30am, when he got particularly vocal and started banging about in the cot. When i went in he had turned and was kicking the cot sides and the soft toys had been thrown all around and he had a devilish little smile on his face. Then 6am was wakey morning time.

Have two of these.

Oh yes and the hot stone massage yesterday was lovely. Very relaxing. Also was brave and went to debenhams and had my eyebrows threaded. I am alergic to wax and come over all Fiona from Shrek if i dare to have then waxed. I am also useless at plucking them myself. As it was just getting a bit toe curling painful it was all over. But a bit pricey at £10. But have yet to find anywhere else in Wigan that does it. - Waits hopefully for Sami to tell me of a cheaper alternative place........

ETA: Beautiful pics of Amber

Aless i think the L&G has strengthened Amber up for sitting. Although i wouldn't rush it either cos like William, she gets tres annoyed at lying down now that she can sit lol.

Amber's hair has gone loads blonder the last week or so. :A
