    What size clothes is lilly in now then Toto 9-12 or 12-18m?


    She's in 9-12 but I am starting to buy 12-18 because she is just growing so quickly. I just got her a bunch of stuff for next summer in the M&S sale. I got 18-24 but when they came I thought, blimey, half of this would fit her now so I'm not sure they will actually get much wear. Having said that a cardigan and a pair of tights might work with some of it through the winter :rotfl:

    Hi Luc, I saw your interview went well. Is it tomorrow for the second one? I will keep everything crossed for you, I hope you get the job, it's about time something nice happened for you.

    How's the little man?

    Thanks Toto

    Lily is so much like her dad I wonder if there are any of my genes floating around in her.

    Hello toto! This reminds me of when my sister came to visit a couple of weeks ago. She looked at Evie and said how gorgeous she was and then in the next breath said to me "she looks nothing like you"... I really didn't know whether to be proud of my gorgeous girl or affronted at the implied insult! Then forgot about it courtesy of a VERY LARGE glass of rose:o

    Afternoon all

    What a day....well what a week actually, sometimes I wonder what it is exactly that I've done to deserve all the carp.

    One day I will live a nice simple life in a house that doesn't break, with no money issues and with healthy family and with every company I deal with doing their upmost to help me.

    Well I can dream eh?
