How quickly one gets used to not being woken at 3am, the 5am one is now the source of my irritation when I used to greet it (when it was the first one) with joy.
TS glad you had a good day after all. Have fun at the market.
ALBS the skirt is gorgeous - glad you had a good day too! Miamla you are so clever... and while I have your attention, are you and T feeling up to this picnic tomorrow, and do you want to meet at Stratford? It starts at noon, so would 11.30ish outside WHSmith suit you?
No1 the shoes I have are called cruisers. The assistant was extremely helpful (much better than I expected in our crappy little store) asked how much and how independently DD was walking and so on. The only thing he found hard to understand was that I wasn't enamoured of the pink sparkly girls' shoes and was actually quite keen to look at boys' styles! (Ended up with girls' though, but purple not pink at least ) They didn't have anything her size in the sale though [typical]. She isn't actually walking independently but she wants to be helped to cruise all the time and in our local playgrounds she really needs something on her feet!
I'm off to meet my cousin's baby today - he was born in May just before his dad took his final exams and they moved house. Yes, insane, I think so too. But the family grapevine has it that she is super-organised and coping wonderfully and of course baby James is sleeping through already. We shall see - I think that is partly my mother and my aunt doing their usual thing but I expect to come away feeling thoroughly inadequate anyway. Hope the cardigan I knitted him still fits, can't remember his birth weight but his dad is a big chap...
