Found baby's heartbeat!!!


I bought a 2nd hand Angel Sounds doppler from eBay at the weekend. It arrived yesterday and I got some new batteries for it this morning... had a good long play with it and eventually found Smudge!

It was LOVELY hearing baby. I'm going to have a good practice tonight and hopefully let Jack listen tomorrow. Tom is still a bit too young to understand but Jack already loves baby and spends ages asking about it, talking to it, kissing and hugging it... One thing is for sure baby Smudge will know his/her biggest brother really well when they arrive next year!

I tried to do a count of beats per minute, but it was not a very accurate count! I got 154bpm which predicts me a boy, but it could easily have been 10 more or 10 less as Tom was scrabbling all over me at the time and I was trying to time off a clock on morning telly.... Over 160bpm suggests a girl, less suggests a boy. Think I'll go for a best of 3 tonight! Although I cant help thinking a boy is most likely!

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
