    I personally wouldnt be that bothered, she my soon to be sister in-law and has spent the last two years planning every detail! When I mentioned feeling funny about wearing black to MIL wedding next month though she said 'why...just do bright accesories!'

    Hmm maybe - maybe not!

    Thanks for the input guys, Im only asking cos I know I probably shouldnt really be doing it :o

    If she is a 2 years, every detail kinda gal I wouldn't risk it TBH. It is a beautiful dress though.

    Unless you don't like her much...then go for the cream and really upstage her :cool: :rotfl:

    Might just have a hormonal outburst later about having nothing to wear and see if OH buys me the pink one!!!

    Sparkle, I'd add a giant rose corsage in the same bright colour as my shoes, wrap and bag and call it fabulous :)

    Having said that, someone turned up to my wedding (three months from proposal to wedding, no plans ahead of time, some people turned up straight from the airport in their overnight-flight clothes) in a cream trouser suit and I was raging. Quietly, to myself.

    And TMI I finally got my period at home and can test out my Mooncup, it is sterilising right now with the pacifier :rotfl: I'm so excited!

    You could always just ask her? If you phrase it right and she has the opportunity to honestly say no then at least you know where you stand?

    He is a wonderful, cute, stroppy genius!!

    3 and I were saying that we are loving this age but god can they strop!! He goes from doing something uber-cute to throwing himself around with real tears and ear-splitting screams to being adorable again in the blink of an eye!!

    What is the beautiful Lexi wearing to the wedding (or is it one of those where children aren't allowed :eek:) is she hit stroppy-mode yet?

    As I'm sitting here listing my twister, I've realised, I have a pram and carry cot as well as a crib listed with parcelforce delivery, and no bloody boxes or packaging stuff! Crap! Where can I get some nice big boxes from?

    Hmm tricky question, due to my other BIL knocking OH out in front of the kids last summer because I am still friends with his ex-wife, we thought we'd not take them :( But it means we have the ridiculously overpriced IMO hotel room to ourselves! Watch out Lexi was conceived at the last wedding we attended and stayed in a hotel room! :rotfl:

    And full on power strop foot stomping madam has been resident here for a few weeks now! I find it hard to keep a straight face though :)

    Back from the heart scan.. got a big tick in the "discharged from consultant care" box :j

    Back to last night, I also sent the same email I sent to Rhys' nurse to his dietician in Notts (at the same time and advised them at the beginning who the other was in case they didn't know). Have now had a reply from the dietician who said she has no problem with me making up the bottles in bulk once Rhys is over one and also that she's forwarded my email to the kidney specialist to find out her opinion on me adding the meds at the time of making the bottles rather than me/Mum adding them just before the bottles are used (or syringing them straight into Rhys). Given that the meds I'm talking about are the kidney ones, I think we'll go for the kidney specialist's opinion, whatever that may be :)

    I did give the syringing a try this morning.. his walker is now wearing half a dose. Yup, that'll work then! :cool:
