Med ittis to 26lbs . bumble is about that now, but there is no way on earth he would fit a medium!

I wish it was Christmas...my SS pressie is calling me from under the tree! I am rubbish with presents and surprises; DH doesn't put my pressies out until after I've gone to bed on Christmas Eve now, as he know the torment would kill me!

mumFrostyface · 21/12/2009 21:05

My secret santa is also calling out to me!

I also can't see a med itti lasting that long tbh. Connor is getting chunky only 6mths and I was struggling with them around the thighs. I think he's about 16lb

Octo are you still with us? Sounds like you are having a good time!

Interested in this thread?

is it sad that I am more excited by my nappy SS than I am about the ones that involve gifts for me personally?

Yay N for her starting to walk bumble needed to be cpaxed into taking any steps and then 2.5 weeks ago he just set off and hasn't stopped since!

Octohohohoho · 22/12/2009 11:10

4: Not sure if you saw my messages the other day asking if you'd accept a freebie tester dress for your dd? Was going to send you the size 2 and myjob the size 1. Just to get an idea of what you guys think of them overall and the sizing of them. Anyway, I got down to sewing this morning and have nearly finished the two dresses! Just have the buttons/buttonholes and hems and they're finished! So wanted to check if you were OK with that? And if so, perhaps you & myjob could email me your postal address so I can get them posted once they're finished! My email is [email protected] Thanks!

You'll just have to try your best to overlook the quality of the fabrics, as I really should have gone for something better. But since I'd already bought them off ebay some months back, I wanted to do something with them! And I thought they'd be OK for testers, but now I'm thinking I should have gone for a better quality. But oh well, they're nearly done - so they'll have to do! But myjob who's getting the blue spotty one, please make sure it's washed with only darks the first time, as I seem to be getting some blue on my iron when I was pressing the seams! I had no idea it was like this, and I'd hate to make you have blue washing! Actually, I think I'll wash it before I send it just to help prevent any accidents!!

thebluefoxategreensocks · 22/12/2009 16:41

oh, and I'm now going to clear out my stash of Bedbugs! Since Bumgenius v3s are working for Clement, and my soap flakes don't clean the BBs well enough, I think they'll have to go. I was thinking to keep 2 of the 7 just in case I regret it, but since I'll not be going back to detergents at all, I'm wondering if there's any point in keeping any of them! So they've all been strip washed today and are drying. Think I've already sold a few of them to some on CNT, though not even offically listed them yet!

Rachel i'd love to test your dress for you I will email you asap! DD4 wore her jimmyriddles dres today and the sizing is huge! It is supposed to be 6-12but will last her forever, i think dd3 could even wear it!

Just been to my parents for the evening, was a f'ing nightmare drive home though for dp, i just sat in the passenger seat with my fingers crossed!!

thebluefoxategreensocks · 22/12/2009 20:33

Got emails from both of you - thanks! Now I'm off to do the dishes/tidying up so I can then get my sewing machine out to finish them!

Yes, snow makes the roads a mess - I'm just staying home till it thaws! We had about 6 inches up here and it's still here from Sunday, with more falling tonight. And I think we might get a freeze again too, so that will make it more dangerous!

Octohohohoho · 22/12/2009 21:16

Am home from devon despite snow here - was fine.

Am in total fluff heaven! A dining room table full of fleece and wool - I am so so so so so pleased with the snugglepants they are totally lush! The hats for the PP are super vute and the tshirts seem quite small - more huggy vests than tshirtts but still very cute!!!!

Ahh fluffffffffff

Octohohohoho · 22/12/2009 21:17
