IKWYM about labelling clothes. Check out stuckonyou for clothing labels - I use them for the kids school clothes and they are great, really saves having to look for stuff at school because if it's labelled, the teachers can give it back to them and also would put off a would-be clothes pincher from taking it too (trust me - that happens undfortunately)

I need to sort through all the kids stuff too. I did ours ages ago and took a heap to St Vinnies, but the kids have heaps of stuff. I can give most of the girls stuff to my sister, but there are still some baby girl things that my neice is too big for. There is a mum at preschool who has a baby girl 3mths older than Alister who would fit them - she is such a tiny titch - she is 9mths old and only weighs 6kg - such a petite gorgeous little thing she is, so I was going to ask her if she would like them.

I don't have a lot to do with our neighbours as they tend to go the other way to what we do (they go south for school/shopping etc and we got north - its hard to explain the intricacies of country living LOL) but I have told her if she needs anything all she has to do it phone me.

ETA - completely forgot to say not to worry about Maddie, Lindsay was 8mths old before he was doing what Alister or the girls were doing - he was just perfectly content to stay in one place on the floor. She will get there when she is ready to.
