Squiggle at 20 weeks

This is our wee Squiggle at 20 weeks!!!

We had a cracking good long scan this time. It was a guy doing the scan for us this time and we both got the feeling he must be pretty new as he was ever so careful to explain everything to us, and check over ever last millimeter of Squiggles body in the finest of details.

Squiggle is shy though, crossing his/her arms across their face so we couldn't see mouth, nose or eyes for ages! The guy had to jiggle my belly to try and wake baby up!! It was a miffed Squiggle who finally let us see that lovely little mouth.

We got to see the heart in colour too, red and blue for the different chambers pumping away.

Nothing at all worrying to report *cheer*

Hubby was sent out right at the end so we could see if Squiggle is a boy or a girl.... but I should have known. Since letting us see his/her face was tricky enough there was no way this shy little baba was going to open it's legs for us! So we're staying Team Green for now.

Jack was good as gold for his Nana out in the waiting room too. He had a good run about, but not anywhere he shouldn't, and then he settled on a couple of books and sat on Nanas knee to be read to. As we were in the next waiting room waiting for our scan piccy another couple asked if Jack was ours. They'd seen him with my mum before they came though and commented on what a lovely well behaved boy he was! How nice!

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
