Introducing 'Wiggle'

So... This is our BIG NEWS!
WE'RE HAVING A BABY!



This is our baby! Head on the left, facing away from every one, little arms just showing and a hint of legs down the right hand side. I'm sure I can see it's BUM CHEECKS!

I am so impressed with this scan! I thought that it would be really hard to see the baby and we would not really be able to make it out. I had visions of us smiling and nodding while the ladies in the ultra sound pointed to bits of the screen and told us what parts of baby they were, while we couldn't actually make them out.

I was so wrong!

This little baba - aside from being determined to keep it's back to us (no doubt in a mood for being squashed between a full bladder and a scanner) - performed brilliantly! First thing we saw was the heart beat, then the head, then the body, and the arms, and the legs... and then it did a little wiggle! It look like it had just hiccuped for something!

Then as the scan went on it started to roll about and wriggle all over the place and I just couldn't keep my eyes off the screen!

Both me and Yorkie had silly grins on our faces and I can't stop giggling about it, although we did manage not to start sobbing (it was a close call though).

Now it finally seems so real! We've spent a tenner on photos so we and all the grandparents can have one! can't you tell it's our first!

Wedding List.... (OMG)

A new kitchen.... Really! We need one! So I've been saying to people that we'll want either B&Q or Ikea vouchers... Only I can't say which yet because I haven't choosen which one I like best: B&Q Oak Shaker style: ( on froogle ) ( on their site ) Ikea: Tildaholm BECAUSE... our kitchen is REALLY badly laid out, the storage is dropping to bits, the seal round the sink is black and festering, the oven hasn't worked for YEARS (the hob and grill are ok though), the seal on one of thef ridge doors has gone too, and the floor... half tiled, half bare concret! But now I have to choose which one I like best, and get the measurements sorted out, and then get the prices for what I can have in the space we've got... PHEW!

Recipe Review: Hairy Bikers liver & bacon with onions & gravy

I need a bit of comfort food at this time of year. I really love this recipe from The Hairy Bikers:  Liver and bacon with onions and gravy  and freely admit that I have whipped this from the BBC Food website. I follow the recipe (but sometimes chuck some mushrooms in too) and split it four ways at 11 pro points per serving. It's a classic, and even my 6 year old likes liver cooked like this - the 4 & 2 year olds need a little extra ketchup to convince them. The Hairy Bikers’ traditional liver and bacon makes a simple supper packed full of flavour and bursting with vitamins and minerals Ingredients 450g/1lb lambs’  liver , sliced and fully thawed if frozen 25g/1oz  butter 2 tbsp  sunflower oil 4 tbsp  plain flour 1  onion , halved lengthways and sliced 125g/4½oz rindless streaky  bacon  rashers, each cut into 4–5 pieces 1  beef stock  cube 500ml/18fl oz  jus t-boiled water 1–2 tsp tomato  ketchup salt and freshly ground  black pepper Preparation method Rinse the liver in a cola
