    CL the rolling is fun isn't it?? Is Juliet trying to wave yet??? poor Lottie looks like a right idiot, she knows what she wants to do but her hand can't quite manage it:D:D
    Greek yoghurt?! Good god no! I wouldn't inflict that on a baby, only like it myself when it's thrown over fresh fruit lol
    Lottie likes the little stars ones too, or the knock off frubes you get from Aldi, I don't tend to buy the (overpriced?)baby food for babies, I just mush up our food and add the salt or anything that isn't good for babies once I've fished her portion out of the pan:)

    Hi Emsy:D that was a slightly over enthusiastic greeting:p:rotfl: How are the kids?????

    Hi Tinks I'm good thanks, saw pic of Lily and she is a cutie:D Swimming is deffo harder work for Mummies than babies, its the stress of getting baby dried and dressed while you're still sopping wet that kills me:)

    Those little yogurts are the first baby food I've bought. Juliet is getting mostly what we eat. She loves steak casserole with mashed sweet potato, homemade vegetable soup with mashed potato in it, bolognese with bashed up pasta, and all sorts of mashed vegetables and pureed fruitand also Weetabix and Ready Brek. My SIL told me her HV told her off for giving her LO Petit Filous, because they were full of sugar, so I was trying to avoid any with sugar. For £1.75 I would only buy them if she loved them and she really didn't.

    She isn't waving yet, but got her first tooth yesterday, so we are pandering to her, in case she is in pain;)

    everything in moderation & I'm sure she'll be fine:D

    Pandering to her, you wusses:D I hope she isn't suffering much.
    We're still waiting for a tooth, she's been teething for about 8 weeks but still no joy, amazing I have any fingers left to type with the way she goes at them :)

    She hasn't moaned or cried at all. No Calpol needed at all. She is generally very good natured. I think I might just get the Little Stars. There can't be that much sugar in them!

    I warm the yoghurts up .. she hates them cold.. 10 second blast in the microwave and she will eat 3 and scream for more.. after dinner not instead of!

    She had a spoon of daddy's choc fudge cake last week and spat it out! .. was just the cake not the fudge topping..

    She has loads of rice cakes too.. why do they stink?! But she loves the apple ones, so I just added some with other fruit ones to my trolley. They keep her quiet while I cook dinner. Cheese straws she likes too.. really easy to make and they can be frozen and defrosted in minutes! I just pop in the oven for a few secs with dinner. She went mad for meatballs and pizza! and she hates ham and cheese and jelly. Tuna pasta is this weeks favourite.

    I'm dying to know how you make cheese straws? They sound like a great morning sickness cure :rotfl:

    Little Squeak likes rice cakes too, except she has to fight the twins for them, even the yucky carrot ones.

    She likes broccoli, and crumpets and anything she can pick up really. I'm lucky really because when we go out I can take plastic containers out with apples and cucumber or other sliced fruit in it and it keeps her happy, especially if it's been in the fridge before we leave. All the old ladies here think I'm amazing :rotfl: They don't see what she eats at home :o

    Oh and she does eat petits filous (sue me lol) she didn't like those plum baby ones, I ended up eating them! She did have half a penguin (the biscuit not the bird!) that won't be happening again, she needed to get straight in the bath! :eek:

    Congrats to Alamya, and it's lovely to see so many people here :D

    Becles, Charlotte does look happy in that photo! I'm glad she enjoyed her birthday :D

    OH wants a beehive in the garden but it's very small and the twins can't really hamdle bees, they freak out, in spite of never ever having been stung!
    Mum of several with a twisted sense of humour and a laundry obsession :o:o

    Great to see you posting again Fuzz. Lottie sounds like a little cracker :D Esme is doing well - she is my little piglet. She was in newborn clothes for ages but now she is putting weight on nicely and is wearing her 0-3 month things :) She is full of smiles at the moment which is lovely. She has slept tons better since being in her own room. She gos down about 7pm til 7am and is fed about 11pm and 4am. Both times shes straight back to sleep after being fed so thats nice!

    Tinks - Swimming sounds fun, if not stressfull!

    Congrats Almaya on your little girl :j I had lots of trouble BF'ing - to the point that on her day 5 weigh in she had lost 18% of her birth weight :( She is formula fed full time now - very upsetting at the time, but she is thriving now.
