Love and shopping

I've just been out to get Lachy's hair cut - its his third, which is pretty good going for a 14 month old! He did very well this time - last time was a nightmare. This time he sat very still, obviously too tired to fight after a strenuous morning of climbing, spinning, swinging etc at Jumping Beans. A trip to the shops isn't complete without a visit to the kids shops. Funny how times have changed, I always gravitate towards shopping for them these days instead of me. It helps that I don't feel guilty spending money on them!

I got Isla a cute new dress and a bargain winter coat and when I showed them to her after kindy she gasped and said about the coat "I want to wear it every day!". Then when I told her I'd gotten her a dress as well she said "thanks mum, you are the best mum in the whole world". Awwwwww. Makes a nice change from the other day when I got told I was a "poopy-bum" (devastating), and that she didn't like me any more (actually devastating).

Also, when I went to collect her from kindy it was story time and in the middle of The Gruffalo Isla leaned over to her friend Ollie (who drew her a picture to take home last week) and said "Ollie, I love you".

The innocence!
