    I totally didn't buy a pair of Peppa Pig slipper socks in poundland on Friday... Honest...:cool:

    Caitlyn has a high instep too, makes it difficult to get her converse on... She's only a tiny 3 still at the moment...

    :rotfl:

    Annabel took about 8 months to go from a 3 to 4 :rotfl: ll her friends are size 6-7 at the moment :eek: It's nice to have wee dainty ones, but your caitlyn is tiny aall over - Annabel is just cursed with my peculiarly small feet compared to the rest of me :D

    I don't mind about your poundlnd bargain. :p There is only 1 anywhere close to us, and when we go we have to park in a super expensive car park, so we might save in poundland - but have to pay a small mortgage to leave the car park! Which makes my Next ones much less expensive :rotfl: :T

    How about a big stone?

    You could get Landen to do a hand or better still foot print on it, then varnish it to seal it. If you used a big stone from beach or your garden it would be very mse?

    I'm not that into garden ornaments - what about a lovely bird box/feeder and buy a bucket of fat/seed balls from the garen centre/pet shop for about £5-10?

    Tiny feet are extremely :money: - the smallest sizes are the ones with the biggest sale reductions.

    so, suggestions please for 'supper' for Kian. He gets fed 'tea' at nursery about 3.30 and usually looks for more food around 6ish, tonight he's had 2 fromage frais and a cracker. Jst really nursery days as when he's with me he has tea about 5ish so doesnt eat supper.

    Wilma - if you can't get it half price it's cheaper at argos

    http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/9244283.htm

    Think I'm gonna get one for T with his christening money

    It's the same price as argos at babies r us too

    http://www.toysrus.co.uk/Toys-R-Us/Toys/Cars-and-Trains/Cars-and-Playsets/Roll-and-Racers-Spinning-Speedway(0080828)

    It's a shocking £40 at boots...I realised the other day that ELC stuff was dearer there than in store and it looks like it's the same for fisherprice. Makes me feel the 3 4 2 on toys is a bit of a con!
