We did all our school shopping yesterday. Was hoping to find everything in bigw but that was a big disappointment. They didn't have shorts in the right blue, only skorts which are ugly and not in our uniform. Ended up getting shorts at lowes for more $$. Shoes - she insisted on buckles which weren't in her size so ended up at mathers and paying $$ lol. And do you think I could find grey socks for DS?? Argh. So he now has enormous socks to wear cos I could only find bigger ones lol. Shirts I was temped by the $2 st marks ones at bigw but dd is such a sweaty little thing I thought I should stick to the stubbies cos they have vents in them and sun protection.

I also got her some netball knickers (as opposed to monkey bar knickers - tho they're the same really) cos I didn't want glaring colorful things. So nice plain dark blue cotton shorties for under her dress.

Lunch boxes are bought too. So I think we're ready to roll!
