    lol Mel she prob would make me sit on a towel and have it attached to me all day:rotfl: My dad thinks she will be born on Christmas day.
    Lol Natalie we will try and not do the whole 'joint xmas and birthday present'. We having been thinking that as my birthday is in August we could do a little party then for the baby. I think the baby will come New Years day because when they turn 18 they wont be allowed out for new years eve so will be like 'mum why couldn't you give birth a day before':rotfl: My stepdad thinks she will be the first baby born in 2012!!

    Morning LauraR - lol glad we could be of assistance getting you caught up :rotfl:.

    Along with writing our own vows I'm also wondering whether to ask someone to do some readings for us - I've gone from wanting the ceremony to be over asap - just get it done - to wanting to make it last and be as personal as I can make it. Argh! I knew we should have gotten married this year :rotfl: then I wouldn't have changed my mind about so much ha!
  • Just had a quick catch up and pleased to see my link worked, yay!
    Got lots more to do for the button bouquet but it's work in progress. If I finish it to soon i'll have nothing left to do.

    As for the vows conversation as we are having the simple- get it over quick so I can party - register service we have talked about saying our own words during the breakfast and perhaps a poem or 2 from friends. Saves money at the register office and we can be as long as we like then! I do like to waffle. Hoping it will feel less anxious if were all sat around a table and our friends can chip in which they wouldn't during the service part. The registrar looked like she could kill a man with her stare. . Eek.
  • Its taken me ages to catch up!!

    Christmas- I love it, im like a little kid! Natalie, my birthday is 24th June which is close enough to your perfect birthday date!!

    House bunnies- my mum has one! A friend at work needed to rehouse her daugthers house bunny so my sister had him, but didnt really have the time or confidence in handling him so I persuaded my mum to have him and my sister turned up with Buster and my mum had agreed to have him before she saw him- hes about the size of a cat!!:rotfl:She was quite suprised, but theyve had him about 6 months now and hes settled in fine!! He has been banned from going into the garden on his own as he constantly eats my mums flowers!!:rotfl:.

    Mel.:j on getting your ring, I think you did the right thing by getting the one you wanted rather than settling for one.

    Melanie- your bouquet is going to look amazing.

    LauraL- hope your feeling better today, my oh never goes away but I know I would be terrible if he did, I would go and stay at my mums or his mums I think!!

    Sorry if Ive missed anything out!!

    See our Bunny is dozy lol. We slowly introduced him to the garden - he doesn't like being scooped up so we don't tend to pick him up and plonk him places. In the lounge we have french doors that open out onto the backgarden. Immediately is a patio and then the koi pond built into it with a little 2 brick high wall, and then there are some steps down to the lawn and the rest of the garden. Little sausage will go outside on his own accord, he'll happily hop about the patio - often going off into the garage (we leave the 'side' door open for him rather than the main garage door). Outside Christmas season the Christmas Tree pot is filled with various things for him to eat - I used to grow basil but he ate it faster than it grew so now it's filled with dandelions. It's on the patio and he just hops into it and helps himself - lol (see photo on facebook). But he shows no interest in going down the steps to the garden. He will sit on top of the wall and reach for some hawthorn if we've let the hedge get a bit wild. He is so cute - he will often check that his route back home (to the lounge) is clear and easy for him to get to. We have tried enticing him down to the garden but he doesn't seem too keen on going down the stairs. :) Bun is a mini-lop but I'd say he's a fairly large mini-lop. When he's fully spread out he's about the length of a normal yellow pages (not the smaller sized ones). When he's sat up and hunched in he's about as big as my forearm :)
    Lol I can talk about Bunny till the cows come home!
