no shoes...again

We have had a LOVELY day today!!

We all woke up together at 7am (not too bad!) and played about a bit before Amelie and Chris got up, leaving me in bed with my book and a cup of tea (amazing!). Chris then made breakfast and got Amelie dressed whilst I had a shower and then we had breakfast and he got ready. Then it was out to Reigate to get Amelie's feet measured again! The startrite shoes are sized differently to clarks - this was evident in the fact that Amelie's feet are still measuring smaller than the first time they were ever measured in clarks despite the fact they have grown a considerable amount. So she is now a startrite 41/2 H!!! H!!!!!! Yes, an H! So no shoes in the shop for her, again. We came home and were able to order them off the startrite website directly. We went into Monsoon in Reigate too, looking for a dress for Amelie for her twin cousin's christening in a few weeks. They didn't have the one I liked so we had to come home and order that too. Amelie was pretty tired and it was past nap time but we decided to take her a walk in the park as it was such a nice morning. She enjoyed it and was great even though she was really tired. Within minutes of setting off home she was asleep in the car and we managed to transfer her to her cot once we got back where she slept for 2 hours. Whilst she slept I ordered her a puddlesuit, her shoes, the dress for her and some wedding related things (presents for the best man, ushers etc). An expensive morning!! She had lunch when she woke up and then we walked up to Waitrose to buy something we had forgotten for dinner. We ended up popping into the factory shop as well for something that we needed to get. She has been in a lovely mood today even though her gums are looking pretty sore, bless her. We gave her dinner, bathed her and then put her in the car as Chris was driving me to my mummy friend's as I was getting a night off...!! Woohoo!
