When I became a mum I swore I wouldn't become one of those maniac women who has their children's wardrobes stuffed so full of clothes that there is no way - even with several Kylie-like changes of costume - they could ever wear them all.

You try having a girl and not doing that.

There was a time I could have told you exactly what was on sale at any given time in the children's section of H&M/Monsoon/Zara and online shops Vertbaudet and Boden.

I was like a woman possessed. I had more money than sense. I had a daughter who would rather wear wellies and jeans than squeeze herself into anything remotely like a dress. So I kept on trying.

Anyway, this is all my way of telling you that I am a bit of a children's clothes junkie and so the reason you can now see a Boden button on this site is because I am totally happy with sending you their way because their stuff is fab.

If I could clothe my two in their range from head to toe I probably would, but I do need to buy food and pay at least some of the bills.

I have also put Lego up there because, while I have this obsession with clothes, my 6-year-old son is equally manic about all things Lego. Specifically Star Wars Lego, but if truth be told he's not really that fussy.

When I bought him a £4ish keyring with a Lego Stormtrooper on he cherished it like it was made of gold and would bring him untold luck.

The Potty Training and Ink for Hire links are for the really talented Writer Dad because he's a fabulous writer and I want to do my bit to support him.

So, I have only put links up here that I totally believe in.

If you click through and buy I earn commission (and probably get to satisfy my newfound Innocent Smoothie addiction since quitting sugar for 40 days - I know, I know. Just more evidence if you need it that I'm not the full ticket).
