Just Another Sunday.......

Little Ben managed another good night and slept until 8.15 but he was really off his food again, but eventually ate a banana and I got on with cooking Sunday lunch - really just a mini Christmas dinner;  roast chicken, stuffing, carrots, roast parsnips, roast potatoes, mashed potatoes, bread sauce, homemade Yorkshire puddings - and everyone's plate was completely cleared!  Even Ben, so no worries about his appetite, it's just finding what he really wants to eat.

Popped out shopping this afternoon then stopped off at the Sports Complex on the way home for Robert and Ben to try out their new mini skateboards (Yes, I did mean Ben - he was so determined to get one and absolutely loves being pushed around on it - he has to be like his big brother!)

Quick tea then time to try out one of my Christmas presents - a doughnut maker!  It was a massive hit with the family and makes really tasty little treats - the same as the ones you get at the seaside, but at a fraction of the cost!

We had the usual playtime after tea, with Ben demanding his "Bam Bam Time" with Daddy (Bouncing on the bed while watching CBeebies), but he decided it was hard work and wanted to lay down to watch TV, much to the delight of his Daddy, as he assumed he would get to have a little lay down too, but oh no, if Daddy even attempted to sit on the bed, let alone lay on it, Ben went crazy telling him to "Mooooo" (Move!) and pushing him off.  Ben also learnt a new babble tonight, which I managed to catch on tape - I really think it sounds like he starts with "Bugger, bugger" but you have to listen closely!

Played with James and Robert on Si's Band Hero before their bedtime, I'm really not sure how much they enjoyed it, maybe when they're a bit older they may get more out of it, but I'm really looking forward to next weekend when they're away and Si and I get our time!

Finished the evening being a good wifey and mum, all the ironing's done and the slow cooker's on with the chicken carcass ready for soup tomorrow teatime.  All ready for the start of the week!
