for the last month ive kitted myself out for the summer mainly using ebay I brought 3 dresses, 2 pairs of shorts and several shorts.

im now starting on the boys and filling there wardrobes

so do you buy each year or do you grab out all last years clothes (mine dont fit)

all we need now is the hot weather

I haven't started buying yet. I buy a few new bits, but will wear things from the year before too.

I have noticed today that Charlie is low on T-Shirts that fit so I will have to look out for some new ones. Jessica also needs new dresses.

nope not going to bother much, will but bits as I see and need them, kids stuff mostly still fits from last year so I will have extra pennies to buy something nicer :YES:

George has taken another stretch so will need ot get him shorts etc. I'll probably treat myself to some t-shirts but as my bump will be huge by then they'll only be cheap ones that I can chuck out when I've done with them. We usuall get stuff from either ebay or Asda as I've always found their stuff really good value especially the kids stuff.

Also, if Peanut turns out female will need to start buying girl things. Am going to go through all of Georges baby things and keeps the stuff like all in ones etc and give the rest to the local charity shop...unless Peanut is a boy in which case they'll all be washed and hung out to freshen them up!

The girls have some stuff that still fits from last year and is still in really good condition due to hardly being worn as the weather was so naff! They do need stocking up a bit more and I made a start on that today on Next website, so waiting on that delivery. I could do with some new stuff myself too but don't need much as none of what I have is out dated thankfully!

I just wear the same stuff each year but hoping that by the time I get to summer my clothes will all be too big and will need new ones ( well I can dream)

Martha is so tall all her trousers were 'ankle swingers' and a lot of tops became midriff tops!!!!
I don't usually bother, just buying odd things when I see and like them!

Joe is the worlds worst shopper and hates new clothes. He is happy kicking around in his old stuff!
He is going to spain with school in july and I will need to stock up on some new clothes but I know I'll have the devils own job to drag him round the shops :roll:

I will end up buying it myself and taking it back when its doesnt fit!!

Sophie and I have been to Bluewater today and bought loads. She had barely any t-shirts to fit her, and Billy had no shorts at all - last year he made do with the ones from the year before, but there is no way I can squeeze him into age 7 or 8 any more

I also bought a few pairs of leggings which Sophie can wear under the summer dresses which are now too short for her :THUMBSUP:

I just need to get them some sandals now, and a pair of crocs for Sophie who has outgrown hers.

I am not counting those chickens before they hatch the yellow orb may vanish if I buy a pair of shorts

Yay Martha's crocs still fit from last year!!! As my Aunt and Uncle seem to buy her loads of t-shits etc and Mum likes looking at George etc, I think she's set for the summer :cool:

Now we just need the sun - it's bitterly cold again today - *shakes fist* that wind
