It was a great way to keep in shape though and the fresh air did the kids a lots of good. We used to put them outside in the pram under netting for their afternoon naps...I don't think many parents do that these days.hostess of the humble bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453827257671312902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-64426257811177743342014-03-09T12:57:03.760-07:002014-03-09T12:57:03.760-07:00The young parents these days want the more modern ...The young parents these days want the more modern strolles like Bugaboo, which ee purchased for our son and wife.

Baby showers have become a bit ludicrous in this neck of the woods. People seem to try to outdo one another, holding them in restaurants with elaborate buffets. The guest lists can be quite large. I prefer a personal get-together with close family and friends. I sometimes make excuses to get out of attending these over-the-top functions and simply send a gift.

I didn't have a car of my own at the time and my Silver Cross was used daily to transport baby to the shops and the baby health centre, playgroup and to my parents who lived relatively close. Mine was a magenta colour. My three sisters used it after me. Wish I had kept it. Love the idea of baby clothes as bunting. Love a baby. You are looking amazing Hostess and inspiring me to stay on track. I have a couple of kg which crept on over Christmas still to get off.

Have been following your blog for a little while, and meaning to comment, so today when I saw that vintage silver cross pram and the inherited Christening gown, I knew it was time!!! They don't make prams like they used to. Love everything about this baby shower, and agree about the usefulness of having older women guide new mothers from their experience. You looked wonderful at the baby shower. xHousewife in Heelshttp://www.housewifeinheels.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-42981696924649368462014-03-05T22:30:54.597-08:002014-03-05T22:30:54.597-08:00What a fun baby shower.
