    You've all been very chatty again! I've got no chance of catching up.
    I'm very happy - just discovered IC have their own website (never thought to look before) and they do size 43!!!!! They haven't got the Miaow boots in purple though booooooooooooo - I REALLY wanted those.

    Today's outfit on my blog.


    Hurrah! Get some, get some!

    Keep an eye out on the Schuh website as well Mariel cos they've usually got plenty of styles for sale on there. Plus possibly Quidco cashback? (Are Schuh on there?)

    And that IC flipping website will be the death of me, I swear. The time I've wasted on there today! I so want the heart flick flack shoes :o

    Some idiot has opened a fab bag and shoe shop opposite all the charity shops. How does that save me any money? Negates the buying second hand! Saw a fab pair with roses on the front, will be nice to hubby tonight and hope. Fingers crossed girls.

    Haha Caroline there is a shop like that in my village. Thankfully (and sometimes sadly) it only opens at random times, which is rarely when I am walking past!

    You are all bad people. Stop encouraging me to buy more shoes!!!!

    Outfit is on blog, the return of the hooped tights. I bought some undies today in Asda because they were reduced and in my size which is bl**dy amazing!

    I want Miaow boots too :(

    Wow I only popped out for a bit, you girls know how to talk!
    Sorry about starting the O/T breastfeeding talk :o

    Retro - We're still going at 2 years 2 months and the plan is to let Dylan decide when he's finished. I hope it won't be much,much longer but I will be sad to stop. I'm a Peer Supporter, The training was 12 weeks and I did mine locally in Chelmsford. I've made great friends with the other PS as well as mum's at the group. I go to the support group almost every week but some only go when they can. I try and get into the hospital once a week, but you don'y have to either. I got really involved last year organising events for National Breastfeeding Awareness Week and this is me!
    http://www.thisistotalessex.co.uk/latestnews/CHELMSFORD-Warmer-welcome-breastfeeding-mums/article-1023644-detail/article.html

    It's so rewarding and the Mum's that we support really do appreciate it. PM me if you have any questions.

    LIR - I like it when people smile whoever it is, it just lets you know that they aren't offended and it is a real confidence boost.

    PF - I really wanted to do reusables, I bought lots but my Mum came to look after Dylan when I was ill and I felt it was asking too much to insist she used them too! By the time I took over he'd outgrown them all.
    My friends think I'm a raving hippy lol!

    TBTS - That is such a nice story, it must have been wonderful for your Mum to be able to help you recover - tell her she is a star!

    I am really proud of what I do but try not to talk too much about it as I know it can be sensitive so I'm glad that you are supportive and interested. xx

    Gosh, I can't keep up with all this chat!

    Daisy - your hair looks lovely, really pretty. Well done for being brave.

    I'll catch up later. We're being slobs and having a takeaway for tea, the fire's roaring and the cats are awaiting me on the settee.

    I've do my 20 minutes of craft today and created a playsuit out of a frumpy tea dress - on the blog, go see!

    Check in later, curry is calling.....

    I used cloth on DS2. Fab things - more addictive buying different nappies and wraps than shoes. Seriously!

    On the shoe front - hubby said yes as long as not ridiculously expensive. I didn't even look at the price :p
