She loves her cars. So say goodbye to the Peugot and hello to the Mini !!!

Whilst napping on the sofa this evening, I was half watching Australian Princess a tacky reality show on Tivo.

The show had moved to England and to match the new locations, the background music changed to Mozart. They played both my wedding pieces back to back !!!

The music pulled me back to our wedding day, especially the moment I turned the corner and saw Deckchair stood waiting for me.

It is amazing how a piece of music can provoke such a powerful and happy memory

TigerFeet and her daughter Little'un of the TigerFeet Blog origin, minus Yorkshireman (TigerFeet's husband) who is currently slaving over an intensive work course, came to visit us last night.

TigerFeet came bearing a wonderful box of gifts for Bert, including but not limited to a beautiful furry teddy bear, the best nappy rash cream ever (TigerFeet's words not mine), Lavender bath oil (which I had seen advertised on the television and wanted to buy) and loads of beautiful 0 to 3 months white sleep suits and vests

Deckchair cooked a wonderful Spaghetti Bolognese for us and Little'un had some too, as being on holiday meant it was too exciting to go to sleep at someone else’s house

Deckchair had also rented a copy of Madagascar in case Little'un stayed up, as though she is too young at 18 months to follow a story plot, he figured cartoon lions must appeal to a youngster.

It was so entertaining to watch Little'un watch the video, to see the movie though a child’s eyes. She had sounds and actions for all the common animals like ducks, lions, monkeys and insisted that the Zebra was a duck !!

I was so tired I had to slope of to bed first, even Little'un stayed up later than me

I had this morning off work, so TigerFeet, Little'un and me went to Meadowhall for a girl's baby shopping trip.

We looked at some Travel Sets in Babies R Us and a very nice lady put together the latest just arrived Graco Mirage Travel Set together for us to look at. It was the best I have seen to date and I think this is the one we'll buy for Bert later in the year.

I was also very touched by the sales lady she was telling me about the twins she had birthed over 30 years ago, one sadly born still. I was so unsure what to say, I just looked at her and smiled sadly.

A few minutes later she comes back to where me and TigerFeet were standing and gives me Babies R Us discount card forms for me and then unexpectedly she hugged me and kissed me on my cheek and wished me all the best !

In this world of bad people, it is so nice to meet such a sweet kind lady.

After Toys R US, we visited Mothercare and had lunch at the Oasis.

It was great to spend some quality girl time with TigerFeet and she has promised to join me on future shopping trips when we actually start BUYING things for Bert.
