- Hi guys, I hope you're all well.
Today I thought I would film a what I eat in a day video,
because I have not filmed a video like this for so long,
and whenever I do, people really seem to like them.
So I thought I'd film one of these today,
and I'm actually trying to be really good at the moment.
Trying, and sometimes failing,
but we're going on holiday in just three weeks time
so I will be getting into swimwear,
so I'm trying to be good.
But I'm gonna show you what we all eat in a day
'cause I might as well show you the family
at the same time.
So yeah, I hope you enjoy these kinds of videos,
please give it a thumbs up if you do,
and then I will know to make more.
And yeah, let's get into it.
For the boys' breakfast, Fraser is having french toast
with some strawberries.
Basically just stick a piece of bread in like mixed up egg
with a little bit of cinnamon and fry it in coconut oil
and yeah, it's really, really yummy sweet breakfast
but I also like that he's getting a whole egg
and a whole piece of bread.
And Caleb is having his favorite breakfast,
he is having almond butter with jam on toast,
and then I've got him a little yogurt as well
'cause he likes that.
These are the multivitamins they have,
they have omega three and multivitamins in them,
three to seven year olds, they love them.
They act like they're having a sweet every day.
And it makes me feel a bit better that they're getting
all of their vitamins.
Boys are drinking milk for breakfast.
We've got these 360 cups so you can drink from the side
without--
- Watch me!
- [Emily] Spilling them.
Good boy!
- Watch me.
- [Emily] Munching on half a banana,
and he's already eaten three or four raspberries,
and yes he's not wearing a bib
and I'm gonna have to use some sort of stain remover.
For Jackson's breakfast, he's having half of a Weetabix.
I basically just crumble it into a bowl, add some milk.
I do warm it up a little bit just 'cause
I think it takes the edge off.
And then yeah he'll have this and his half a banana
and then if he is still hungry after that
I'll normally give him like a little bit of yogurt
or some strawberries or something like that.
Can't forget his water as well.
He really loves having a drink, don't you?
There you go.
Good boy, you've got it.
So nice.
Yummy.
Uh oh, ooh he's making a mess.
He's being a messy boy.
Mm, mm, mm, mm.
I'll do it myself, mum.
Yeah.
(baby crying)
For breakfast today, I'm having a coffee
and then I'm also having a protein shake.
This basically has 300 mil of unsweetened almond milk,
a big handful of spinach
and two scoops of chocolate protein powder.
The chocolate and the spinach together is really nice,
even though it doesn't really look nice.
And it's like, it looks like a really boring breakfast,
but this really really fills me up.
And then I'm having my multivitamin.
I'm still taking the same Pregnacare breast feeding ones.
I still have loads left.
So basically, you take one Omega 3 a day
and then two of the multivitamins.
So I'm just gonna take that now,
and this should keep me full until about noon.
For Matt's breakfast,
Jackson is trying to steal it,
he's having protein pancakes with fruit on top and a tea.
- [Matt] The sandwich, some apple rice cakes,
And he's back to his sandwich.
Good?
Stop filming.
Yummy.
Is it Good?
Whoa, you never have white bread.
Is that good?
- Yes!
- [Matt] Jackson has smashed his sandwich.
That good Jacksy?
That good?
(upbeat music)
- Suntime now, and because it's nice out,
we are eating in the garden, Matt's here as well.
He's just had the same,
we're having leftovers from last night, so I'll show you.
Yes it's leftover chicken korma.
We basically made enough for four last night.
So we're having it for lunch today.
So we're just going to eat that now
and Jackson has like a fruit stick,
it's called a humzinger.
I think it's one of those kind of ones.
Right!
(baby chattering)
Really?
I swear he knows how to vlog.
Every time I put the camera like this,
he starts talking.
Isn't that crazy?
He's only nine months old and he's vlogging.
Anyway, we're off out to do the school run now.
We've had a few outfit changes because
it is so hot here.
We've had water to play.
I've filmed a few different videos and it's 26 degrees.
I've got this little dress on now.
But, I wanted to show you,
as we're about to do the school run.
Sorry about that, we are now at the school.
But Jackson has been so tricky today,
he's been shouting and talking so loud.
He really won't let me like do or say anything to the camera
but, what I was gonna say was,
I have got these little pack of sweets for Fraser,
because I started bringing him sweets
when I picked him up from school when he started school.
I think it was because I felt guilt,
and also I've never wanted him
to fall asleep on the way home after like,
a busy day at school when he was very young.
So I've always brought him like a little pack of something.
Something sweet or a lolly or something like that.
So it's become like a tradition,
and when he made my Mother's Day card this year,
there was like different questions
that the teacher put in the card.
And one of the questions was,
what do you love most about mummy?
And he put that he loved that I bring him sweets everyday.
That was the thing he loved most about me.
So I feel like I can't stop it now.
So I've just got him some of these for after school.
- I spent my day with really good work do.
Today was around the world day.
- [Emily] Oh really?
What did you learn about?
- Just a lot of different countries from the world.
I need to do one thing on my worksheet.
Just to draw the Mexican flag.
Oh I've already drawn the outline of
the Mexican flag.
Well, it's already been there.
I just need to learn the flag of it.
Just the colors.
So Mrs., my teacher can teach me how to draw it.
And I've done all the other flags.
- [Emily] All right.
- Not every flag in the world. - Can you say what you like
about New Zealand?
Oh yeah, I've been doing these New Zealand, New Zealand.
And I've done this dance and it said,
it said F-U-K in it.
- [Emily] What!
- Yeah it said f, remember?
- [Emily] It is their Maori dance.
- Yeah, it said (speaking foreign language)
and then like it said that another time.
And then it said (speaking foreign language).
(gasping)
- Not that.
- [Emily] Is that a different way?
- Just F-O-K,
F-O-K,
and then there's F-U-K, that's the worst.
- [Emily] See, 'cause it's a different language,
it didn't mean the naughty word it means here.
- Yeah.
- [Emily] So, as long as we don't
say it in English, it's okay.
- So we're just picking up Caleb now.
- It's dinner time now and I'm making
the boys one of their favorites.
I probably do this dinner like once every week,
or every two weeks at least.
It's fish cakes.
And I do this one because it's such a quick and easy one.
And it's one that I know the boys will eat.
And I love the fact that the fish cakes obviously
has fish in it but also potato.
I buy these ones homemade from our local farm shop
so that's really nice as well.
But I think you can get some really nice
store bought fish cakes as well.
And also a good thing about fish cakes
is I can also put one in the oven for Jackson
and he will hold it now and eat the contents
and because the contents is mashed potato and mashed fish,
he can actually eat it quite well and swallow it.
So it's a really easy quick one for me,
'cause I can make it for all three boys
and just add some veg, we do like vegetable hair,
and vegetable eyes and nose and mouth and stuff.
And sometimes I'll do beans for Fraser
to have with it as well.
Yeah it's just a really easy one,
so sorry if you've seen this one before on my channel,
but I just love it.
Yeah, this is what we're having.
(crying)
I think he's like I've got the same as you.
Caleb, where's your--
(baby crying)
Mmmm.
Is that yummy Jacksy?
Right, all the boys are in bed now
so I'm just doing my dinner and Matt's dinner.
We are having a separate dinner to them tonight.
I do make more family meals for all of us now a days.
Now that Fraser is six and Caleb is three,
there are meals like roast dinners and things like that,
that we can all have as a family and enjoy.
But, whenever Matt works late,
I don't know why, but I will cook the boys dinner
and then I will then wait and eat with Matt.
I don't know, I just feel like it's a nice thing to do.
I don't know, that will probably change in the future.
But for now, I am making us a separate dinner
and I wasn't sure if I should show you
what we're having or not
'cause it's not like that inspirational.
But then I was like, well people come to YouTube
for real life.
Like if you want to watch TV show,
you go and watch a TV show on cooking.
But this is real life and this is what I do.
So I'm going to show you, don't judge me,
we're having a ready meal.
Because once a week, when Matt works really late once a week
I normally do a ready meal.
Yes, I've just put all the three boys down
and while I was putting them to bed,
in the like hour it took me to do each boy altogether,
I had this in the oven,
'cause you cook it for about an hour.
So, yes, so I'll show you what it is.
Right, so I get this lasagna from a brand called cook.
I really like their ready meals.
They sell them in my local farm shop.
They're a bit more expensive, seven pound 50 for
a lasagna for two people.
So, you know, a little bit more expensive,
but honestly they taste homemade.
They're really really yummy.
They were actually on the show Tried and Tasted this week.
And Cook Lasagna got the number one for lasagnas.
So that shows how good it is as well because obviously
they didn't know what brands they were.
But yeah, I really, really like it
and it's just so simple to just chuck it in the stove,
while I put the boys to bed.
And then I've done literally like
a random rainbow salad to go on the side
which has no lettuce, but sometimes I prefer these salads.
It's just cut up and cubed cucumber,
peppers, different types of peppers.
And I have like some beet root so there's
like a random beet root on there as well.
But I just feel like you should have a salad
or like some sort of veggies or greens next to a lasagna.
So that is why we're having that.
So there you have it.
This is real life and I'm having a ready meal
and I probably have a ready meal like this once a week
just to cut my self a little bit of slack.
You know we can't all be super mum.
Right, for dessert we're having what we normally have
which is meringues with creme fresh and berries.
And then on my one I've got maple syrup as well.
So yeah, it's really, really yummy
and we're hoping it's not too unhealthy.
Right, so that is it for this video.
I hope you enjoyed it.
I feel bad about having given you
any inspirational recipes
but I will definitely do more foodie videos
if you want me to.
So give it a thumbs up if you like these kind of videos.
But I also wanted to show that like,
I don't know just real life,
I'm like this is what I do.
So yeah, anyway, thank you so much for watching
and I'll see you soon.
Bye Guys.
In today's video I'm going to give you
my best tips for breast feeding in public.
A few months ago I posted a video on breast feeding,
and it has been so highly viewed.
