Gnocchi for Dinner

Full English breakfast, don't actually think he was impressed! Hot cross bun for lunch with butter (on offer at supermarket - can tell Easters on it way) We went up Sheffield city centre today had a look around the farmer market. We had a roast pork and stuffing sandwich, didn't get Billy one as i didn't think he'd eat it - how wrong you can be! He was sat on my knee while i was eating so my sandwich was in front of him, he kept leaning forward and taking a bite, quite comical really and very cheeky!

For tea Gnocchi (Italian potato dumplings) & Cheese sauce, he ate a stupid amount, oh and spread it in his hair and anywhere else his little paw landed (cheese sauce not fun to remove especially as i put half a block of cheese in!) Need to get more veg in his diet again - i do let it slip!

Clocks went forward last night by a hour so it'll be lighter at nights now, had about 4text messages reminding me this morning! Its not like last time they went back and i forgot! I got up early to go to the gym for 8am turns out i was actually there at 7am and it was a Sunday morning The Marriott Hotel wasn't even alive at that time never mind the gym!

Been that nice out today, in fact very sunny. Our lawns have been cut today, the lawn mower made Billy cry. He was very happy to stand on the window ledge and watch from inside though, oh and blow his cheeks up on my window and squash his nose on it! Lets hope he doesn't do that at Grandma H's she'd be gutted, her house is spotless!

Just wondering, do you ever feed Billy pureed veggies? I let Porgie eat lots of finger foods throughout the day, but I always feed her a jar of pureed vegetables at dinner time. It makes me feel better about her diet.

I love the pictures. Billy looks like he is such an eager eater. He always looks so happy while he shoves food in his little mouth. TOO CUTE!

If he'd eat from a spoon i'd give him purees- in fact i'd love to.

I ended up following the route of BLW as he refuses the be fed. Stems back to him been ill - my very first post. http://diaryofbabybilly.blogspot.com/2007/01/story-so-far-baby-billys-version-of.html
Prob explain why i always post about food, food isnt such a big issue now as he's gaining weigh but at one point he was very under weigh and was going to refured to a paed.

But yes he loves eating now and he will try anything, its quite funny as his cousin is 6months older and wont eat like Billy - every baby is different tho.

If you look at videos there is one where he's refusing a spoon - its quite mild in comparison to his normal behaviour.

Long reply sorry.

My baby's grandmother's house is spotless, too! It always makes me feel bad about my house. But of course you're a good housekeeper, too!

I'm having a problem getting enough veggies into the baby, too. Too much fruit.

same here too much fruit. my lo has so many extra helpings of fruit but not the same with other stuff. Initially i was really pleased as this meant that she was eating, but now i am starting to get worrried. Oh yes, she likes any veg that is green - can't get enough of them. But if hse ha stoo much then nappies are not nice. sorry (TMI)

Naomi absolutely adores gnocchi! You have to hide them until she's eaten other parts of the meal, coz once she sees them she wants them all until they are gone!
