Sugar High!

I have been pretty strict about what Little OL eats.  She has never really had chocolate or sweets and even at her first birthday party when I had them in the party packs she was not given them.  Wicked mommy I know. She had her first cupcake a last weekend and a marshmallow a while [...]

When I have kids I will NEVER….

“My daughter is NEVER going to the Spur. She is going to learn the value of going to a good restaurant, sitting properly and savouring the feelings that come with good food.” Yip, that lasted until she was 18months and 5 days old.  I took her to the Spur yesterday… And I have created a [...]

What do you give your kid.

How strict are you about what your child eats? At the moment I am fortunate that she is at home so I have total control over her daily intake but do realise know that this will change when she hits the big bad world.  I also realise that I might be slightly over the top [...]

Should I or Shouldn’t I?

I went for a run this weekend – it was a 15km race and about 5 km too far to be comfortable!   It is amazing the things that go through your mind when you run.  Especially when you begin to battle a bit.  My first thought was how can I feel this bad when it [...]

Feeding photos!

Here are a couple of photos of Baby OL eating her first solid meal.

Weekend review (yes I know it is already Thursday!)

I brought my camera to work today to down load photos, only to find that I had taken the cable home!  Drat.  I started Baby OL on solids on Saturday – very cute, but she still needs to figure out what she is supposed to do with the spoon. At the moment she chews it [...]
