    Toddler Approved Banana Cookies

    March 9, 2020 /

    Dylan has been a bit off his food the last few days due to painful gums from teething so I’ve been trying to cook his favourite foods to try and entice him to eat something. One thing he can’t get enough of is banana so I thought I’d try and create some healthy banana cookies for him. To say they went down well is an understatement. They were so simple to make and Dylan had lots of fun helping me bake them and licking the bowl! For some of our other favourite recipes click here!

Last weekend Dylan helped me build a bamboo teepee Last weekend Dylan helped me build a bamboo teepee. We are planning to grow clematis so dug out the turf to add some compost. Of course D wanted to use the big spade instead of his little set he has for digging in the garden 😂 We are notoriously bad gardeners so really hoping this works out 🤞

He looks so grown up 😭 He keeps getting his feet all tangled in his sleepsuits in the night with all his wriggling and ending up with his legs poking out. Here's hoping that he won't wake me up a million times tonight... Am not counting on it!
