    Had to go to asda today and buy bedding + pj's for DS1. Ended up spending £50 :eek: just on general things we needed. not good at all for the budget, but at least DS1 has three pairs of pjs that kind of (too big) fit him.

    Aww Sexymouse and all others thank you very much x Sexy it IS so exciting and aww wedding dress shopping is so much fun :D The best thing about it is that you soon get a picture of what shape you prefer on yourself and the surprising thing is that what you think you will like best on the hanger you normally don't like on yourself - then you see a dress and don't think it's your thing and it's normally the one that looks fab on you :) Try not to prejudge and try it all on - you'll be so surprised :D
    Many,many congrats love - you watch how quick time flies, it goes so, so quick!
