My friend got married on Saturday, so I had to wrangle Squeaky into a party dress and deal with an over-excited, over-tired toddler who'd already spent a few hours at SqueakyGran's house being fed Too Much Cake. Can you guess what happened to the pretty party dress? Put it this way, I was very glad that I'd kept a couple of changes of clothes in the back of the car, for Squeaky at least. I just smelled less of J-Lo Glow and more of Toddler Throw for the rest of the evening.
No actual new finds this week, but Squeaky's party dress was one that featured way,way back in an early Magpie Monday post, so I thought I'd share how it looks now she's grown into it. See also her favourite toy, a no-longer-working mobile phone - another piece of Magpie-ing I guess, finding a new life for something that would otherwise have been chucked out. (and please note tidy hair, in pigtails. Don't ask how, it was a miracle)
A couple of new charity shops have sprung up in town, though they hadn't opened when I was shopping last Thursday, so I'll be making a tour later in the week, see if there's anything good. And I finally located one I'd been looking for for AGES today, though I was working at the time & couldn't really stop & go shopping.
The magpies have migrated for a week or so. Pop over & visit.
Squeaky looks lovely in her party dress and pigtails! Hope the new charity shops in town bring you some nice things, sounds like you could do with some after all your car trouble. Thanks for linking up with Magpie Monday. x
ReplyDeleteAah she looks adorable, what a cheeky face! My boy unfortunately only wants to play with a mobile if it lights up and makes noises...
