Becoming Dad does.....the NEXT sale

First when Zoe mentioned about me going instead of her to the NEXT sale, I thought she was joking. Me!!! Get up before 5am to go queue for a clothing sale! But, when it got closer to the day, I thought, they do great qualitity clothes and we would get Finley a new wardrobe and I knew Zoe wouldn't be able to go as she would have to take Finn, as she's feeding him. So I thought, it would be a decent thing to do and go to the sale.

Also, with the amazing alarm clock that is Finley James, I was actually up at 4:30am, much to Zoe's amazement I got up and jumped in the car and got their just before doors opened at 5am. When I saw the length of the queue, I did think I'm going to be here queuing for ages and once inside, by the time I get in everything will have been picked through. Thou,and behold the queue moved fast and I got straight in and made a bee-line to the baby section.

At first, there wasn't many women about, then I blinked and they were all there on mass. I fought my way through to the baby boy clothes and started to collect as best I could. Not thinking Zoe would like anything I had picked for him. I did manage to pick a few things up for Zoe and a lovely coat and flat cap for me.

Here are a few of his new wardrobe-




Thankfully, the queue at the tills wasn't too bad so after getting the clothes, I was in and out pretty quickly. When I got back to our home, I think Zoe had thought I hadn't picked anything because I couldn't be bothered standing in the queues and just came on home and was surprised that I was then and back in just over an hour with two big bags of clothes. I showed her and was pleasantly surprised that she liked them and that was a job well done.

I might even brave the NEXT Boxing Day sale! 😂
