   LOL yeah I had the toes hanging over edge issue before summer also...ugh!
 
 Truds - yep i know how tiny you are....and you know Ella was never gonna be small but OMG I need to take shares in shoe companies I think!
 
 Stez and Annie - hmmmm might need to send some very little worn shoes your way then!!! cause i know we have similar tastes!
 
 I buy mostly from number 1 shoes...or sometimes in warehouse on sale (mainly summer stuff like jandels etc) thank goodness cause then i can buy 2 or 3 at a time for less than one pair in hannahs or farmers! I bought a pair of grrosby boots for winter for her the other day for $10...that is about my limit except for the divine basketball boots i bought her for $20 the other week! I am in love with STOMP shoes at moment but can not justify her needing anything like that....gasp DC would ruin them in one hit! she only has dora and mickey crocs cause of that massive sale a few months back!

   Lauren is 16months and in a size 5. We normally buy from the warehouse, but their sizing can vary so much even within the same brand - for instance, for my DD1 she has a pair of size 11's and one of 12s in the same brand, of which the 12s are actually smaller in size. She was wearing a size 1 in the bigger girl shoes when she was early 4, but they are smaller than some of the size 11/12/13's around! it can be a bit confusing at times, definitely pays to actually try them on rather than just buy on the size number alone when shopping there.

   Gabrielle is 15 months (13.5 adjusted) and wears size 5s at the mo. She is really tall for her age and almost off the top of the chart for her adjusted age.

   Bethany is 17mths and generally wears a 3/4 - only more recently has started fitting some 4s.  Although when we went to t&t just after she started walking (at 13.5mths) to see what shoes they had, she was a size 2 in one type of shoes and supposedly a size 4 in another... go figure!  Shoe sizes can be nuts sometimes eh :P
 
 I say if you're not opposed to second hand, TM & op shops can be great - sometimes you fluke shoes that have been barely used, probably ones that were bought for children just before growth spurts lol.  Bethany's summer sandals cost me $1.50 and still look gorgeous!

   Ryan has just turned 2 and is a sz 9 but then he is tall and skinny and fits sz 3-4 clothes. I just took him and got him fitted at STOMP they were great fitted him in 5 minutes and he finds the shoes really comfortable.

   Hehe I must have a midgit baby! At 13months Chelsea is only just growing out of her 0-6month size shoes, and that's only if she has thick socks on. They still fit fine with thin or no socks

   Caprece is almost three and wears 7-8 and Jack is 4 and wears 11-12. I have size 10 feet however so weren't really expecting small footed children. I just can't wait for their growing to stop so things last a bit longer!

   My DD2 is 12 months and is a size 4 or 5 depending on the shoe, just had to go out and try find shoes for her and was quite a hard job really as most shoes were really heavy. The only ones uld find for her are boys shoes. (that is in Feilding tho)
