        Yes he did like that. I don't know if his will fit him next winter. It is hard to find nice older boys patterns.

        @Michelle M: He is only very small. He is 10 in May. Probably do an 8 pattern. He inherited my small wrists and ankles and my stick out ears. Sounds terrible I know.

        @Vix: I will have a look. They are very fussy when they get to that age and wnt a surf look or very casual look.

        @Michelle M: I did try and run over my toe with the shopping trolley today. I had sandles on and a trolley that wanted to go every way but the right way and i had a huge load as you can imagine with Rochelle and the kids coming down. I can't believe the cost of every thing. I bought alot of fruit and veg, very expensive, but I rather thay ate that instead of rubbish

        @Jennifer M: Do you think its cause we ate getting old and febble we can't throw those trolley round like we used to.lol.😊actually I can imagine how full your trolley would be with 5 extra mouths to feed,imagine when the twins are on solids.I agree I always get heaps of fruit Vegas etc but they getting more expensive, I don't think the fruit is as juicy.when we lived in NZ we were surrounded by orchards and we used to pick juicy apricots, nectarines etc.😏😏

        @Michelle M: I agree the apricots are often dry and the peaches don't seem to be as nice as they used to be. I can remember having two trolleys with my family because I used to shop once a fortnight. I know what you mean about feeding them when the twins are older imagine christmas as they all become older. Just feeding them all. Ten grandchildren, at the moment the younger ones don't eat alot.

        @Jennifer M: but I thought you had retired. You are just going to say it's pot luck dinners now whenever you have a big get together and everyone brings something. I think they are fun,I always take dessert, surprise surprise.lol.😁😁oh I found the NZ designer it's called Little Cupcakes nice patterns for the twins, not big enough for Aaryen.😊

        Thanks Michelle, we are at Adels Grove now it is really beautiful. Quite a cold southerly blowing so a bit cold for swimming it was evidently hotter last week. The internet keeps coming and going so I am having trouble responding to people.

      It is a lot harder to source modern patterns for boys! This looks great.

      Love the two-tone and the pockets - this is wonderful contemporary wear for little ones.
