Shazz Poor little Ryan. I hope he's feeling better soon!!!

Welcome Ange!!! I cheat with consistencies and I will buy the store bought stuff to test Em on. And then if he copes well I will make my own to that consistency IYKWIM. Em has risotto, spaghetti etc - just mushed. I also offer him finger foods - he has vegimite on toast (cut into fingers), watermelon, cucumber sticks, pieces of roast meat - that's all I can remember right now. He doesn't have teeth yet so he doesn't eat the finger foods as much as suck and spit them out LOL.

Jodie Great advice re solids. I'm going to look for that pasta now!

Kim LOL @ Darcy chewing paper. Em's favourite thing is tissues - yeww!! Have fun at swimming!

Christine I would be happy to be a teacher hence the reason I applied. But I would prefer to be a midwife despite the shift work hehe!! So I'm just leaving it in the hands of fate. What is meant to be will be!

Thanks for all the well wishes girls!! Just thought I'd pop in before I rush off for the day. Lots of shopping to be done and cleaning! I have 6 loads of washing :eek: . We were so worried it was going to be a stinker for our weekend away... instead rain has been forecast!! And I was going to work on my tan LOL!! I'm just in the middle of making my shopping list so I suppose I better get back to it.

BFN!!
