I'll be using it again, for sure.Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345822230344288078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155243672133235939.post-40164212153224486112010-09-02T18:19:26.299+01:002010-09-02T18:19:26.299+01:00Love the jacket.

I suppose I have the girl gift sorted..the Cilla pinafore is it...I am trying to find a fail-safe gift for a boy that is not something that they'll have 20 of already..like sleep-suits or dungarees. This particular outfit needed to be quite masculine...(don't ask)...nothing vaguely feminine! This is what I was down to from my stash.Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345822230344288078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155243672133235939.post-73283621038864205362010-09-02T02:35:40.512+01:002010-09-02T02:35:40.512+01:00I see my kids aren't the only ones squabbling ...I see my kids aren't the only ones squabbling at the end of summer! I like the jacket idea - 1 item instead of an outfit. It certainly makes a complete gift. But is it quicker than 2 easy items?Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17756048999067152284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155243672133235939.post-36216932730409979692010-09-01T22:58:07.975+01:002010-09-01T22:58:07.975+01:00That is a great picture of your kiddos!

I have been getting a bit done though!<br /><br />Thanks Nicole...Tadhg is the same age as Leoni, as you know...I'd be like you, waiting another year...I think they're too easily distracted still. Of course Maeve is very good at looking after Tadhg too...which helps. <br /><br />Amanda....you forget how small babies are...the jacket is teeny!<br />I have no idea what the bookends were up to, but I have recently taken their passport photos in this spot...so the middle little one is doing what she did for the passport photos...looking anywhere but at the camera! Poor T is finding it difficult to know what to do in photos at the moment!<br />He is sticking to serious for now!Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345822230344288078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155243672133235939.post-74456778709628214462010-09-01T21:04:41.230+01:002010-09-01T21:04:41.230+01:00I love that picture of your kids, the exchange of ...I love that picture of your kids, the exchange of glances between the bookends is great!

But I think that will be another year before I will let her. It's only a 10 min walk, but across a busy road and I quite enjoy walking up to school with her :-)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04060548037634650284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9155243672133235939.post-58946181435138420312010-09-01T18:16:38.814+01:002010-09-01T18:16:38.814+01:00It's hard to let them go even when you *think*...It's hard to let them go even when you *think* you are ready. We still have one more week to go before school starts and while I'm looking forward to them going off (the fighting amongst siblings these last few weeks has been horrible), it still won't be easy next week to let go.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17538128071032666452noreply@blogger.com
