A happy Jack and a play date

Jack's cold seems to have almost all gone now, which is great news for all of us here. Getting up in the night not to feed him but to put drops in his nose so he can breath has been exhausting for all of us. And gorgeous though he is, the sad expression he's been carrying round while he's been suffering has been heart breaking.

Still, the last couple of days he's been much brighter and happier. He had a good time at baby massage this morning too letting me do all the advanced stuff with him and showing off his favourite moves. He's sleeping better in the day again now too which makes for a happier baby while he's awake.

Kathy came over just after lunch today with Katie and they had a play together. I think maybe the two kiddies are starting to recognise each other - Jack sees more of Katie than any other individual child at the moment since me and Kathy are going to some of the same sessions.

They had a play on the big gym and both got all happy and wriggly looking at all the toys. They even managed to grasp each others hands a few times. It took a few goes but we managed to get a photo of it!

*Sigh* 16 weeks old tomorrow and he's already got a girlfriend. They grow up SO fast!

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
