Hi Megan! Glad little Lucas is better. Mine is asleep in his sleep bag with it tucked up in the end of the cot. It was the only way i could get him to stop rolling. I had to move his bed as there is a power point underneath it that we plug his monitor into - he had rolled up there and had his hand stuck down the side of the cot, playing with the switches. I nearly died! I think he must of read your comment the other day about him being a legend sleeper and he thought ' ha, i'll show her'.
My slow cooker is a Breville one - mum & dad gave it to me for xmas so this is the first time i have used it. I really like to cook but often things dont turn out the way they are meant to . Our old house had a tiny tiny kitchen with no bench space and an old oven that you just had to put everything in on highest setting and leave for hours, so i am having fun in the new one with a proper fan forced oven. I love sheppards pie - will have to put that down on the meal planner!
In regards to the bath, Tom has never seemed to have any problems with water in his ears. I'm not sure how much water i put it - hopeless with measuring - probably about 10cm's or so. I cant find my ruler to check how much that really is! Just so there is enough for them to splash around in - it covers T's legs but not all his belly - that kind of sticks out of the water. It is heaps easier, and i can sit and read a mag or paint my nails so its a nice bit of mummy time!
