or am i just being a lazy arse?

i wouldn't bother most of the recipes are online, I used the annabel karmel site at first but then just adapt your recipes once you work out eli's favourites.

yeah i think i can steal enough online to keep us going, i just read something about how many grams of fat/protein/ml of dairy etc he is meant to eat per day by 8 months and shat myself wondering how i am going to figure it out...
..but then hubby reminded me that he is a human being and we will just feed him like one haha

I have 2 recipe books and I love them. I refer back to them everytime I'm feeling in a rut and I've cooked things I never thought to try and they've turned out to be favourites.

it is a worry but i just try and go for a good balance , some babies eat nothing but pie and chips and still flourish so I wouldn't panic just yet.

yuck pie and chips i'm really glad i know about baby stock cubes now though, can make lentils a bit tastier when he is bigger

If you a book i would pick it up x
I dont have anything like that wished i had pickd one up when callum was littiler xx

Ive got the annabel karmel complete baby meal planner and its fab. the food is so tasty we have it too especially now he's bigger. Ibe just ordered her 100 top pasta dishes and complete family meals so that I can make sure Tyler always well balanced nutritious meals not the rubbish we normally eat

Loving your hubbys advice

i will inform him of his correctness!

pick up a cheap book somewhere. Im sure they will be worth it. my oh is a chef so I was very lucky because he prepared so many tasty meals for hannah and a book would have been a waste because ive never been the cook in this house. I went through a phase of wanting to cook but it passed
x

haha i am the main cooker in this house and i really enjoy it, but with babychops around it needs to be quick and 'leavable' rather than something i need to watch

Ellie just has what we have. We eat later, so I just keep an ellie size portion in the fridge for the next day.

mari have u checked out ure local library? ours has loads of baby recipe books i spied the annabel karmel book the other day which i think im going to look into soon x

library???!! you're so old fashioned that hadn't even occurred to me....no wonder i'm so skint!

haha i love the library! i refuse to pay money for books so either always ask for them as pressies or get them at the library!! x

annabel karmel super foods for babies and children is a great book i used it when evan was younger he loved the stuff in it and most were so simple and quick to make
