Recent Hatchlings clothes purchases

[Estrella]

I’m planning like we might still be able to camp next weekend. It will likely be a bit cool overnight/in the morning so picked these up for S as all her winter stuff is too small.

[Estrella]

I particularly love that hoodie, Bea

[Squirrel]

I bought this for C’s birthday. She’s impossibly fussy about clothes but she loves it so much she has worn it every day since .

[Pippedydeadeye]

I’d wear that!

[emma_p]

That’s so sweet. Is it very soft? It looks it

[smalex]

That is lovely.

[wendy james]

It’s very pretty, I’m glad she likes it!

[Squirrel]

I would too Pip!

That’s so sweet. Is it very soft? It looks it

It’s that nice drapey fabric, also it looks black there but it’s navy. I’m so pleased I’ve bought something she actually likes!

[Pippedydeadeye]

I still feel awful about Squeak hiding that My Littke Piby dress so I couldn’t send it to you.

[Squirrel]

That only rings the very vaguest of bells and there’s really no need to feel bad, I’ve definitely done many things like that

[Kleio]

Oh my goodness where is that from Squirrel? Betty wants some play suits and I’ve seen some lovely ones on M&S website but those are nicer.

[Squirrel]

It’s from Sainsbury’s.

What is anyone doing about shoes? I need to do a full audit but his toes are busting through his trainers, hanging over the edge of a pair of sandals (theoretically in his size) and wedged in his school shoes (not that hes likely to need those for a good while). I don't mind sainsbury's shoes but don't have a shoe measurererer thing and obvs can't take him into the shop. Just buy a pair in the next size and hope for the best? (Awkwardly the next size should be a half so he'd have to jump to the next whole size because I don'tthink they do half sizes). Tbf, aside for a 45min walk or cycle, and messing about in the garden hes not wearing shoes particularly often so I guess the fit isn't essential (?)

[Cerise]

Yep I’d go a size up.

[Squirrel]

There are printable foot measuring grids you can get online if that’s any help

[smalex]

Ooh! Yes. I didn't even think of anything like that. I'll try it. Otherwise I'll just go up a size and hope for the best.

Can you imagine the sodding queue in Clark's when they reopen and no kid has been fitted for shoes for months?!

[Squirrel]

Ugh yes. I bought then returned Start Rite shoes online just before lockdown so the minute there are any whispers about school re-opening I’ll re-measure and order them again.

I was in Sainsbury’s today and it was really odd seeing all the racks of pristine untouched school summer uniform. It’s normally a jumble sale in there.

[Kleio]

It’s from Sainsbury’s.

Thank you! I’ve given up ordering her one now. They’ll all arrive after her birthday.

[wendy james]

The girls are spending a fair amount of time prancing around in swimsuits outside, so I’ve bought them a rash suit/top.

Underwater dinosaurs and flamingos.

[Suzi.Q]

Ooh, where are they from Wendy?

These just arrived for E, but they’ve sent the wrong size jumper.
