I spent 8 hours bridesmaid dress shopping today. We finally picked a dress but man it was brutal. We went from each of the 5 girls getting to pick their own to everyone wearing the same dress. There was also yo-yo-ing in color & type of dress. Four fitting appointments & 3 stores later we had a decision.
Then no one could afford to pay for the damn dress in full today but me. Someone was required to pay in full so we could get 20% off. The order won't be placed until everyone pays. The wedding is in 7 months & the dresses take 4-5 months to come in. We are cutting this timeline way too close. I'm fully expecting it to take 2-4 weeks for everyone else to pay. They said to allow 1 month for alterations.
I'm sorry the shopping took so long! That's a LONG DAY for a single dress! At least it's pretty though, I think it will look nice on you. No fluffy sleeves like I expected
M goes to bed between 9-9:30, I'm jealous of anyone who can get their kid to sleep before 8:30. At 9:30 I'm usually ready to crash myself.
Agreed. DS is usually in his crib by 8-8:30ish, but between the zillion calls for "mommy potty!" Or "help blow nose!" Or "heard dog barking!", we're still visiting his room until 9-9:30 most nights.

I had to try on a fluffy 80s style dress.
And there was lots of push for lace dresses, which apparently is very in right now. I'm happy with the one we picked, it looks great on all of us.
I just woke up with a bloody nose and proceeded to puke all over my kitchen. Yuck. I don't know what's wrong.
I went through a couple of week period in the second trimester where I was constantly getting bloody noses. It was horrible but the OB didn't seem concerned. I just used it as an excuse to eat really good steaks a lot, you know, to replace all the iron.
