Scootastic

Mini is having a bit of a kitty moment this Christmas. Today she received her gift from our nanny sarah-jane and mini went scooting off as soon as her candy pink striped whizz mobile was up and running. Phin of course wanted to ditch his ole red one but mini held firm.
Today mini wore her grey Bonpoint denims with a mushroom lace collared shirt her uggs and peach bow for a day of jumping and sliding at Bramleys soft play. What a full on day of fun.

Go go kitty ears!

Mini went for her last swim lesson today with BF Aurelia. They love each other so obsessively that each of them chants the others name repeatedly on the car journey over like a bizarre mantra. Of course once they lock eyes it's all grabbing each others biscuit and screaming in a high pitch yelp.
Their competitiveness certainly helps their swimming with each one trying to out do each others backstroke kicking and humpty dumpty dives.
Post swim mini put on her bros old Bonpoint grey skinnies and ugg boots (kindly inherited before him from cousin Gigi), her hand knitted lilac sweater from Penny and a liberty print neckerchief. The piece de la resistance was her Hello kitty earmuffs, her Christmas gift from Aurelia. Her BF certainly knows how to give good gift.

Autumn days

We took things easy today as I became the last of our family to succumb to a school tummy bug. Phin was the first to fall foul, then mini, Tom the next and finally me. So it was pretty much pyjamas all day round our house but when I finally found the energy to emerge we all donned our tracksuits and leggings and off we trundled through the glorious leaves.
Mini was sporting Phins old cashmere. The charcoal track pants are from...... And her snowflake cashmere sweater from Bamford. She is wearing something new however, her aqua ribbed scarf, a beautiful gift from the girls at Caramel.
Phin rocked his Bonton thermal long johns with an old Bonpoint knitted coat that has morphed into a snug Cardigan and his new Ugg boots. They were a gift from godmummy daisy and are limited edition 'Where The Wild Things Are' covered in gold crowns. So excited they finally fit!

These boots are made for walking...

Well, they are not quite made for walking, but these shearling booties i picked up at a market in Germany are the perfect accessory for keeping Mini's feet toasty. Her khaki pants from Bonpoint, a cranberry and grey striped t-shirt (a great hand-me-down from Karen's boys) and an emerald green pom pom cardigan both from Caramel hits a perfect note for casual Sunday dressing.

Phin also wrapped up snug on Sunday in his chunky grey Aztec knit cardigan and matching hat from Bonpoint, denim shirt from Gap, grey tracksuit pants from Cos and chocolate Ugg boots
