    Hugs to scruffy.

    My gran always buys Keira the most minging clothes, revolting colours are a must with her, off the sale rack at asda, so she gets vest tops in Winter. Yeah great she can wear that erm....inside.

    I got quite a lot of hand me downs for Keira, got the 3rd hand pram and car seat (it had never been in an accident and in good nick, plus we never used it in a car except a handful of times) her cot was 2nd(it did her 4 children) from a friend of OH's mum, was supposed to be a cotbed but it was wobbling around the place and we had lost some parts, lasted well though, didn't move her out of that until she was almost 3, heh! Got loads of gifts of clothes, blankets, changing box and products, gran gave me £100 so stocked up on nappies/wipes and bought a swing with that, 2nd hand also lol. Only gripe is that EVERYONE mostly bought me 0-3months clothes, (so did I as accordin to my mum babies go through lots of clothes!) she lived in sleepsuits mostly! I kept a very cute white cardigan I bought for her from adams and a vest/sleepsuit from when she was born and chucked the rest, felt most aggrieved about that, actually cried.

    Come to think of it, Keira was a very MSE baby and thts before I found mse!

    .....and even now I don't have to buy Keira much as OH's mum, is always coming down with bags of clothes she picked up from Mckays, or toys, or food! Lol, and I get my sister ellies hand me downs too. So apart from decent shoes, I don't buy much else (and OH's mum actually bought her a few pairs lol)

    Lemmie try and remember

    SusanC - Addiction is hard, and I seem to have one of those personalitys! I actually am very jealous of people that have God in their lives, I know I'd like to turn to someone sometimes that doesn't judge. I was never brought up with it though and it's just not for me.

    MM - He is soooo cute, his hat is fab!

    Feelie - How old is Toby now? And whats the shaky thing that means he needs food? Oooh bet that'll be exciting, rice first?

    SM - That is unfair that Jayden gets nothing and Zoe got things, esp if it's the same people, massive age gap after all, it's not like one after the other and same sex!

    Glam - How's the slowcooker?
