    Ta hun :) I can make them but I have just been lazy lately lol :o

    Seen some nice risotto recipes and am going to make some big batches of things to freeze me thinks!!

    Aaron looks toooo sweet, Aiden is getting a bit cheeky though - and fussy, in town today he decided he didnt want to go back in the pram so oh carried him!!! Think he has him wrapped around his little finger!

    Xx

    I know it is so much easier to just bung a jar in. They are so full of calories and fat though, that's what forces me into making my own :o I freeze massive batches of it though and cook my meat fresh and just bung the sauce over. :rotfl:

    He is so so so cheeky. Think we're starting to get a bit of separation anxiety here, as if he can't see me he's going into melt down. Not good :(

    Oh no :( I think I have that lol :D if I am not with him I get upset! Think thats why nursery may be good for Aiden when he starts as he will get a little break from over protective me :o although I will bawl my eyes out I am sure!

    Def going to do my own sauces as need Aiden to eat with us when I am back at work so may as well start as we mean to go on.

    Is Aaron happy being left with other people, i.e family? I am not one to talk though as have only left mine with OH but my mums having him Tue eve for a couple of hrs as we have to go arrange christening. xxx

    I've only left Aaron twice, once with my Dad while I popped out for 90 minutes and once with my SIL while me and OH went to see the Dark Knight Rises. (He was already asleep both times though, so not really like we'd left him if that makes sense?)

    I didn't enjoy it, and it's not something I'll be repeating any time soon. Although I know in my heart of hearts that's probably not good for either of us :o

    Hi Rebekah, so glad things have improved and you have found something that works for you and baby :)

    Our best night last night, 830-730 with a 2 min dummy wake at 1230 :j we did npthing different though! OH did put him in the cot the opposie way round as he thought the sunrise may be disturbing him, so he seems very smug and is taking all the credit!

    Ohhh you two lucky mummies! George had me up twice and then we've been up since 6.30 again. Hoping it's a growth spurt or something that will pass, each time he's up he's feeding for ages.

    Quiet day on here yesterday! I checked in but had nothing interesting to say, was working most of the day. But I did win a pushchair on eBay! I really wanted a Quinny buzz but they were just too expensive, even secondhand. so I went for a secondhand mothercare spin, it's got the reversible seat so should do us for a fair while hopefully. Just hope it gets delivered quickly!

    We're going to a carboot later, there's one near us that doesn't start til 11 which is nice, most of them seem to open ridiculously early. Not that I got a lie in anyway, but at least oh is getting a few hours extra.

    First night in ages Jake actually slept for longer than 3 hrs at a stretch. He did 8pm - 10.30pm then I fed him and he slept until 4.30am, I actually feel like a human again. DH has been getting him up at 7am and letting me sleep for an extra hour in the morning and that helps but this... ahhh lovely uninterrupted sleep. Lets hope he can do it again tonight.
