me too hun.... honestly try and find a space and keep some, it does kinda help.

I am lucky as my two are tinies, my ds will be 5 in may and is just going to move out of 2-3 clothes in summer, and my dd was 7 on valentines day and has just got to age 5 clothes. Both smallest in their class, but I kinda think its easier being the smallest, my friend ds is tall and strangers just expect so much from him

I'm 20 now, but just few hours ago, when i was 19 I was wearing a jumper and jeans i've had for early a year....aged for 12-13 years old! :rotfl:
Shows how short I am!:o
(I'm 5ft, got short legs too):o

Even when I'm driving, people look at me as if to say, are you even old enough to drive?:rolleyes:

I know the feeling, we are all kinda small around us. Me and dh are 5'1", and only one of the kids grandparents make it over 5'... lol. Odds are defo against my lo getting big.

I think lots of us welshies were bred for mining.

I have a really ugly old fashioned cs scar, zipper to my belly button, so I confess that we are still on the stage that is how they came out. They do kinda know animals are different, so I guess I'm hoping they will work it out a little.

But I also like the magic of them staying young, so will wait a while, as mine are quite young for their ages.

They do "notice" things dont they - our little girl dog just came on heat and had to explain that we cant let the dog have babies ,shes not old enough to be spayed -as far as LO is concerned problem is that her daddy wont let the dog have a boyfriend LO is very upset - dont really know where to go with the conversation from there

I like looking young for my age, cos it is a compliment when you get for asked for id when buying a simple knife in a supermarket, and young kids relate to me better...cos i'm on their level.:rotfl:

HATE buying clothes!
Trousers are the worst, the smallest size of size 6 and size 8 are always miles too long for me, but after trial and error, I've found AGE 12-13 trousers/jeans fit me!:o
But, although kids clothes are cheaper, they are quite childish! Don't really wannabe wearing a pair of black trousers to an interview with high school musical on the back! :rolleyes:
Why hasn't someone invented clothes that fit short people?!?!:rolleyes:

ahhh, I used to love getting into kids clothes...

Have you tried Tammy Girl - is that even still around? Otherwise they make us pay more to get the honour of a very limited range in Petite

Never been in this situation, but would suggest little lies like:

• No boyfriend left for dog, all been taken, naughty to take some elses boyfriend, have to wait X AMOUNT for new boyfriend to come for dog.
• When dog is 2 years old, and you're 5/6, the dog can have boyfriend, and then countdown days to her, and dogs bdays!

This may be a silly question but have you tried looking in the petite section of many clothes stores ? my aunt is 4' 11'' if she stands on her tiptoes - shes a size 3 in shoes and can still find things to fit her ??
