lol Atilla....I have tried most of those things you mentioned over time...work sometimes better than others...doesn't it....sigh...well, they are in bed now, well the little ones and es and his sleepover friend are in his bedroom on pc/ps2...and I am sitting here relaxing with a glass of red...
And I totally know what you mean, saying that sometimes their behaviour just make you not wanting to do anything...I am like that , too...
oh, and did you mean text as in texting with mobile phone? [dim]
Osmosis, I agree, Victorian Times would not be my cup of tea neither, as I would have been the same combo...
SB you sound like an amazng mum...
oh Franny...do let me know about dates, please, because I have a few things coming up...Naidex Exhibition and COT conference, which is a massive OT event, which I am hoping to be able to attend...
and oooops at you eating your mans dinner
before he came home...were you able to cover up by whipping something else up for him...?
pink...I do hope that bubba is going to show it's little face soon...
Well...as for f&v pretty rubbish...like 5 portion of peas....oh such variety!
Had a bit of a Family emergency...my mil is in respite care at the moment ( late stage Alzheimers/Dementia) and she only fell and broke her collar bone...poor little thing (she is teensy)
Oh and before I forget, Toot...my ys went through a phase where he would eat only cucumber and cooked plain pasta and Toast with Butter...he wouldn't even try anything, just refuse....and I did put my foot down and we would painstakingly get him to at least try teensy amounts of other foods...it was quite a tearful time for a while and at that time increased stresslevels...we woud only ask him to try, if he didn't like it or would start to retch he was allowed to spit it out....I know people will disagree with this big time...but this was last summer, and ys now at least continoues to try everything on his plate and has gotten used to a lot new foods since. And yes, people will now be sitting on thier hands (or not) and cursing at their screen at the cruelty...
however, your ds hasn't got that bad a variety I suppose...
oh, our theory behind making ds try foods (even those that we knew he isn't keen on and might have gagged on) was that sometimes we have to get used to the flavour and we start to like it!
