    Didn't know that Aimless :eek: we only use Bitesize shredded wheat from what I can see trace value on 100g on both sugar and salt. I had picked up the shreddies thing from a BLW website, will let them know :D

    We're waiting to see what time daddy wakes up. It's a really nice day here. He wantshis hair cut at some point. I do hate the weekends though. As nice as it is to have him around... we never do anything fun! What family things do you do with a littlie?
    We do pretty much the same as we did prechildren aside from the trips out tend to be shorter. So we might do jobs around the house, go out for walks, go to museums, go shopping, eat out etc.

    That's the trouble BWP... our old weekend activities aren't baby friendly *wink wink nudge nudge*

    ^^ are they baby making? Lol The trick would be to go for it as soon as he touches the cot for a nap, that might give you enough time. I find that at night I'm too tired.

    We also try to do the same stuff as before, which was mainly shopping, meals out, walks around the neighborhood, console gaming and tv watching. I try to fit reading in between but it seems I can only ever do a few pages at a time!!

    That's what naptime is for. (Unless you're not meaning what I think you're meaning.)

    My OH works weird shifts so works a lot of weekends, if he's off though we usually go a walk, eat out, go to the food/craft market, take A to the park. More often than not though he watches A while I catch up on all the housework I haven't had a chance to do in nap times all week :o

    We don't get much in the way of nap times. Plus he's not really into me atm :(

    I feel like we should be doing stuff on the weekend. He told me when I was pregnant that spending weekends in was boring. I usyally don't see much of him on a Saturday as he leaves to watch football around half 1 and sometimes doesn't come back until 8 or later. Sunday's are for shopping and visiting his mother. We have a birthday party tomorrow though :)

    Crossed wires here. Apparently OH was waiting for me to say what we're doing today and I was waiting for him to say...

    He's just complained he's bored. Um... what about the 3 weeks worth of your washing to put away!?

    Bamama my OH is the opposite - he'd quite happily stay in pretty much all weekend, every weekend! He's better now the weathers improving a bit, we normally have a walk to town one day and maybe a walk over the fields with G in the backpack too. I try and give him some time at home alone sometimes, so I'll take G to the shops for an hour or so and OH will stay in playing computer games.

    He knows full well that I need a card for the party tomorrow, his car is blocking me in and he's napping on the settee!
