Happy Easter!

Thought you'd like this video.


You would think she was fine and all back to her usual self - but I think that was a post chocolate bunny sugar rush, as she is still not herself today :(

Here are some pics of Easter morning:




I thought we might have had a few dramas in  us encouraging Baby A to eat  her most favourite animal (well, apart from Miaow) - but apparently not!

This was bought by my Auntie and Uncle at a 100th birthday party - very cute idea as it's an egg-warmer, so they put a chocolate egg in there for Baby A, as you will see.



What you can't see is that she had another bad night, care of her cold.  I had to sleep in with her for the second night in a row, as all she wants is 'Mummy cuddles' when she is like this.  And I feel so sorry for her.  It's easier to be on hand and in the same room when she's poorly.

At 4am this morning, she puked up the phlegm that had been troubling her all day.  As usual, there was a lot of it.  She puked at mega speed and managed to get it through my hair, down my back and down the back of my pants.  Daddy was on hand with the muslins which are still kept available for this purpose, but she was just too fast.

So there I am, changing my phlegm pants at 4.10 ish.  Happy Easter.  How about some phlegm in your pants Mum.  Have some of that.

At least I saw the funny side.  Poor little lamb.  You've all seen I'm used to being a washer-woman, so what's a few more pairs of pants?

The worst bit was not so much the puke itself as the fact I can't shower because of the work we are having done to the bathroom.  So my sick-hair remains so to the very moment I type.  I have been wet-wiped to within an inch of my life.  But boy I'm looking forward to tomorrow when the shower can have it's first use.  Whoopee!

I would bag first dibs, but in fairness, I'm pretty confident Mr Big won't put up a fight.  Unless he finds the scent of baby phlegm puke alluring, I'm confident he will be pushing me into that shower the second it's useable!

Poor Mr Big.

Wondermum Makes - Tegenarium - Spider House!

My Mum isn't a lover of spiders and unfortunately she passed this fear unwittingly onto Roar when he was small. She didn't want him to stay afraid and so one Christmas, she bought him a Spider House Kit.  Between us we hoped he would learn about them and watch one and see they spend a lot of their time motionless and aren't really that scary. Don't get me wrong, I don't love it when a spider scuttles too close, but it's usually the shock of something scuttling into view that's more 'scary' than the spider itself.  Well, that's what I tell myself anyway!  We have no poisonous spiders to worry about so there really isn't anything to fear (although I know that isn't the same everywhere). We've had this Spider House Kit tucked away in a box for at least a couple of years as Roar was initially not keen.  However, in Lockdown all  the 'kits' are coming out and so has this one and, what's more, he's LOVED IT! He has l...

Wonder Mum Makes - 7 Step No-Sew Teddy Bear :)

Today is my own Wonder Mum's birthday and so M came up with this idea as something she could send her Nanny while we are all in Lockdown. Here are step-by-step instructions of how to make a no-sew Teddy bear and bring a little sunshine into your day :) Things You Will Need Small bathroom towel or a pillowcase 3 x small rubber bands or loom bands Your own choice of ribbon or decoration e.g. wool / string / elastic etc.  A clear, flat working area Instructions Step 1 Lay out your towel or pillow case on your working area and fold approximately one third of the way. Step 2 Start rolling upwards from the bottom, tightly. Keep doing this until roughly half way. Step 3 Repeat from the top so that you end up with the two tightly rolled sections meeting in the middle, like two sausages. Step 4 This is the tricky one as it's two steps in one.  Fold your sausages across on themselves, as if you were c...

Wondermum Bakes, Makes & Creates! - Vegan Chocolate-coated Cookie Dough Balls

Further to my Kids Kitchen post, I thought I would share one of our latest efforts - vegan chocolate coated cookie dough balls - yum :) These are delicious and very moreish and crucially, something our littlest will eat.  Looking at him now, he appears a cheeky chubby little cherub and looks the picture of health, but what you don't see is how difficult it has been to get calories into him with his multiple food allergies and initially severe GORD (difficulties keeping food in). So having high calorie allergy safe foods he will eat is a constantly evolving part of our journey with our Cub :) We made these two ways - initially just following a fairly basic dough recipe and then adapting it to make it more vitamin enriched so see also my second post for the vitamin enriched version. Recipe The basic recipe we adapted from one of our favourite You Tuber bakers - Cupcake Gemma - so here is a link to her original (non-vegan recipe) which we then adapted  https://www.youtu...
