Ooh ooh ooh! I think boy too! No particular reason though, lol. Most people like having 1 of each, but think how much cheaper it is having 2 the same sex so close together. Everything is a hand me down, lol. Bet you cant wait to find out. Its all very exciting x

My house is coming along ok thanks jess. Love having a garden. We are always outside. Its far from huge, just the right size to keep under control, lol. After having an unusable back garden, its great!

I think ive pissed my best mate off today. Ive got tonnes of bdays coming up and her wedding plus sams holiday and a week at call of duty camp. Ive done a bit of a budget to try and not leave myself short. Well, we went shoe shopping today for our bridesmaids shoes and all ive done is moan about the cost of things, lol. I nearly had a fit when it was suggested we should buy £55 shoes which i would never wear again. Then there were the £38 pair which were awful, i moaned about them too, lol. Then afterwards I got a message saying about hiring a boat for the hen party. Just a little broads cruiser. They wont hire it out for just 1 day, so we would have to get it for 3 days, which is £100 each. Its then gonna cost £50ish for the outfit we have to wear, plus all chipping in for alcohol and food on the boat, prob £30 each. Then we will be going out for dinner £30 Then beer money for any other pubs we stop at £40 Then we all have to chip in for the novelty hen party stuff around £15 each. So Im looking at £265 for just the hen do
got the shoes for £25
Got to pay to have my dress altered £40
Accomodation at the venue £50
Hair for the wedding £45
Cant think of anything else at the min, but im sure theres prob more. Thats £425 altogether. Does that seem a little excessive to you, or am i just being tight, lol?

Blah, thats been pissing me off all day, lol. Feel a bit better now ive blurted it!

That seems really steep! I mean isn't it your mate that wants you to be a bridesmaid so shouldn't she really be paying for your hair to be done, shoes and dress altered?

If my sister wasn't paying for that sort of stuff then I wouldn't be being a bridesmaid as I just couldn't afford it!!
