It has been a quiet week as usual. I did the school runs in the afternoon Monday to Wednesday and baby is back to completely freaking out and getting into a right state in the car. So I decided to order a new car seat and see if that helps. We also ventured out for the first time to a baby group.
Day 9 – Sunday 9 January
No picture today. Was just the usual Sunday of chilling and watching TV and then getting ready for school tomorrow.
Day 10 – Monday 10- January
I got this book as had seen a lot of mums recommend it in FB groups and it was on sale at the works for £4. Sent hubby to go collect it. Has some good recipes in it.
Day 11 – Tuesday 11 January
Been trying to get baby to nap in her cot during the day, or even on the sofa….but she keeps fighting it. So she is still contact napping during the day. I guess at least it gives me some time to relax and I can read my book.
Day 12 – Wednesday 12 January
Hubby had brought home more cake on his way home from work last night. These were £5 a slice and were really nice. The strawberry one was better. This one had a hint of coffee and I don’t like coffee.
Day 13 – Thursday 13 January
I had ordered a new car seat in the hope that maybe a more comfortable seat might stop her crying. Plus I wanted a spin seat to help save my back when putting her in and taking her out. It arrived today and I fitted it in the car….will see if it stops her crying.
Day 14 – Friday 14 January
Took baby to Music Bugs. I almost didn’t go as the email said doors and windows would need to be open and to make sure we had wrapped up warm. But as I had paid for the term I decided to go and see how cold it was. Thankfully the only door that was open was the door leading to the rest of the building so it wan’t really cold. Baby was curious about the other people and babies and then loved it when the bubble machine came out. I’m glad we went now. Thankfully she didn’t cry in the car….maybe the new car seat and new toy did the trick….but it was a short journey so will see. Later, my nephew brought over the high chair that I had stored at the parents house. Have everything now for weaning and will begin at some point.
Day 15 – Saturday 15 January
I had been hearing about Richmond meat free sausages a lot so asked hubby to get me some. They were OK, not sure why so many have been raving about them as they weren’t that great. Myself and the eldest watched Eternals on Disney+ and then later after karate Bee watched Hotel Transylvania: Transformania which had been released on Prime.
That is a good idea about trying a new car seat. I hope it helps.
I have seen that book and people really love it. Good luck with the recipes.
I am glad you ventured out to one of the baby classes. It sounds like it went well. x

It did go well thanks
Glad the trip to the Baby group went well, and the baby was content.
We still haven’t watched the Eternals. Did you enjoy it? We should also watch the Hotel Transylvania, seen the trailer, and it looks funny.
I love coffee-flavoured cake, so it sounds totally lush to me.
Meat free sausages don’t sound very inspiring. I bought some M&S vegetarian chorizo “pigs in blankets” for Christmas, and they were not good, very disappointing, as they cost quite a bit.
We enjoyed Eternals
Ooh that cake looks amazing, although I’m not a coffee lover either. Sounds like the car seat might be a success, and glad the baby group went well.
Thank you
I hope the car seat helps, I could definitely have done with a rotating one when my son was a toddler, such a good idea. The cake looks lush #365
The rotating ones are fab
Aww I miss the days of contact napping. I used to quite like having an excuse to sit on the sofa and watch TV while Thomas was sleeping. That cake looks very yummy. Glad that baby enjoyed Music Bugs. Good luck with weaning. #project365
Lol yes it is quite nice being able to sit and watch tv
Hope the car seat is helping we had a spinny one and it really helped with my back. Glad you had such a great time at the baby class, I used to really enjoy them. That cake looks very yummy

Definitely good for the back!
The cake looks amazing! Would love to try it. Yes make the most of nap time to catch up on reading, its important you get a chance to relax too. Was Eternals good? I am hoping to watch it soon.

We enjoyed watching it
Lovely looking cake, but I don’t like coffee flavoured ones either. Hope the new car seat is working and glad you and baby enjoyed the play session
Thankfully it was just a mild taste of coffee
It sounds like your little lady is as demanding as Little E was. She ate what we ate too, I kind of did it myself I think, I remember making loads of purees for Ethan. I don’t enjoy the weaning journey if I’m honest. Hope the car seat worked. Our ones were still OK to face the front but I had one that did spin to put them in and it really helped my lower back #365

Must admit I don’t really enjoy the weaning journey either
