Credit Crunch Cheek!
Fantastic - an interesting credit crunch story in the press http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2008/sep/22/foodanddr ink.supermarkets . Essentially it's a puff for Waitrose, but that doesn't mean it's not worth reading. Waitrose is reintroducing cheap cuts of meat. My favourite is the......Read More

"Support" a good cause
Every so often, my weekly emails from Netmums throw up something interesting.  I've met new friends, found an exercise class and discovered new babyfood recipes that my son loves.  But there's more than that. I was particularly taken with this.  As you'll know if you have had......Read More

Life imitates soap opera...
Ok, so this is weird.  A week or so ago I was inspired to reply to a friend's post about why we as humans crave closure, why we see a narrative in what must surely be a random series of events.   In my post, at ......Read More

How cute is this???
My husband is a lot more emotional now he's a dad.  Watching TV earlier, he got a bit tearful when a guy was talking about losing his wife just after the birth of their child. Our son was sitting on the floor at his dad's feet, facing him.  Seeing his dad well up he took his dummy out......Read More

More teething troubles...
One for all the parents out there.  Had to take my baby son to the doctor's again this morning after more screaming, vomiting etc. over three days. Turns out it's the second lot of tonsilitis in three weeks (first time we took him to A&E as he couldn't even keep down water. ......Read More

A lack of authority...
it's been a week or so since I've had time to blog. how are you all? ... ok, so I know it's important to support each other when you have a child. Presenting a united front, sort of thing. Parents need to back each other so that the child doesn't learn to play one off against the other. So......Read More

In praise of bedtime
Every day is a struggle. Every evening a nightmare. No time to relax, no time to ourselves. No peace. Argh. My husband and I have been tearing our hair out. We've certainly shouted a lot more than we should. Our 9-month old son (gosh, is he 9 months old already? Time flies*) has become an......Read More

A new step forward
I haven't blogged about every tiny change in my son as he grows, although each feels like a mini miracle. He can grab small objects and move large ones, creep on his tummy and cross a room by rolling - all new in the last week or so.  I guess I've not tracked them all because you're......Read More

scary afternoon
Just back from the accident and emergency room. Took my baby son for a weigh-in this morning - he's making steady progress. About an hour later when changing his nappy I noticed some purple spots on his left leg, just between his calf and thigh. They looked like little pinprick size bruises,......Read More

final blog on the big C
I had always thought cancer was supposed to be a marathon, not a sprint.  Just wanted to say thanks for those who prayed for my grandmother.   Slightly shocked to say that she took a turn for the worse at the weekend and died yesterday, in bed at home, with my grandfather there.......Read More
