Cots and butternut squash
I made a horrible discovery on Friday - I found mould spores underneath the mattress of the carrycot I'd been using as a cot (money saving idea - carrycot + mattress from ebay + OH's crafted sturdy wooden stand

as everyone told me babies grow out of Moses baskets so quickly). I cleaned it all (including the mattress) but I was horrified (it wasn't there last time I looked which was less than a week ago - I wonder if it's due to having heating on?) so, after she slept with me for two nights while her bedding was drying, we bought a cotbed at the weekend.
Now I hate shopping - it always seems to me there is loads of choice these days but nothing that does exactly what you want. But we found a nice cotbed and amazingly didn't have to take it back. But I'm so sad as it means my baby really is growing up.
I made butternut squash puree today though and she loved it so much she SMILED while eating it. SO thanks to all who suggested it. It was a HIT!
