lmao I KNOW!
Our "couple time" 
oh and btw - there's HEAPS of parking available 
Having a few issues with the payment options for the day so to make life easier can you please bring cash. Failing that I can take your credit card details and place the order after the day, just means you won't be able to have the item then and there - Sorry 
Will update if that changes ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I am taking credit card orders but you will have to wait 2-3 weeks for your order (i.e. can't take it then and there)
I found it really hard to get a credit card zip zap swipy thing. Will try to get wireless internet next time, then we can do the order online then and there! ahh dontcha love technology  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Uh oh, Karyn "found a way around" the fact that I deliberately didn't take any cash with me and I somehow ended up with 4 Bitti D'lish fitteds  They do look super cute on their wee butts as night naps tho - yes I know, bad mummy didn't wash them first...------------- Maya Grace (28/02/03)

I only spent $70 out of my $100 budget, so did well, and only really got what I went for, a new wet bag and a super absorbant fitted and cover for nights, so did well, resisted buying the gorgie longies though, that was tough... ------------- http://alterna-tickers.com">

Ooooh, I'm so jealous!! The bitti boo's look really cute although I wasn't sure they were any more absorbant than the d'lish??? What did you end up getting for nights Natalie? Leo has been wetting more in the last week - his ever faithful Foxys haven't been holding up so I might have to to give a fitted & cover a go for nights too

Thanks to all that came and saw us yesterday. It was a lot of fun but hard work too, 6 hours straight of continuous demos!
My goal today if to be able to say microfibre without it coming out "microdefribre" LOL I got a bit tongue tied towards the end
I think DH is looking for a change in career!
He did very well and all the guys loved talking to him to get a Dad's perspective on using cloth, especially the nappy sprayer - even cloth nappies come with gadgets boys! 
Also, thanks to everyone who modelled my Honey Child T-shirts and nappies - the littlies looked gorgeous and I even had a couple of people ask if the shirts were for sale! LOL Hope you had a good day too Meredith, it was lovely meeting you ------------- http://lilypie.com">
