Not having a mom right now really fucking sucks. My birth mom is a POS and I refuse to let her be a part of my life. And…

@jrose114, okay thank you! (: you rock!

Your welcome if I see anything else I'll tag you.

@jrose114, those are a great idea! Thank you!

Yeah and you can get everything at the dollar store 😁

@jrose114, those are SUPER CUTE! 😱

@jrose114, okay. Thanks mama! 😊 I posted another post about my baby shower ideas. If you could check it out and give me feedback that would be awesome!

No problem I'm here to help!! I love doing this stuff. And I actually have an idea to go with that theme hold on let me find it lol.

I love it that's so cute

@jrose114, thanks for all your help today! Sorry it took me so long to reply! I didn't see the notification! I found a website that sells invites but also lets you design your own! I'll post the pictures of what I designed below so you can see! I'm still gonna design a few more. But this is what I have so far!

I mean how many people you have to feed**

At the dollar store they sell blank cards you can go get some cards and write a hand written note saying you are inviting them to your baby shower it is coed and for them to RSVP by a certain date so you know how many people you have to invite.

I made a Facebook event! With the info. But I still am trying to find a way to just send something kinda personalized without spending a fortune! @jrose114

Or if they have have a cell phone the only thing is your limited to their invites but I believe it's free to do it that way

Or else you can do an evite if everyone your inviting has access to an email

Yeah I was planning on printing and cutting them also but we just got them and that's perfect since you have the cutter

@jrose114,

Those are cute. But dont have the money for them :/ and I don't even know where to begin to make my own and print them. And we have a paper cutter thing that cuts even lines. Lol

Here is another one. ссылка

The more you buy on zazzle the price per card goes down

I like this one also since you will have beer ссылка

We ordered them yeah they are expensive. But zazzle has great deals. I was going to say if your good at cutting you can make them yourself on the computer

Here is some on zazzle which is where I got my wedding invites. ссылка

@jrose114, did you buy one and just get like a template thing to print them out. Or did you order them all? I invited like 30+ people so it seems expensive to buy 30+ custom invites :/

Yeah they had them on etsy they have different styles also

Yeah ours is going to be co-Ed to

Probably just a grill out burgers and hot dogs. It's gonna be Co-Ed. So burgers and beer for the boys. Where is that one from? etsy?

Do think ow if you are wanting to do a brunch or bbq?

@jrose114, yes exactly. I just wish my family would STFU about my mom and stop guilt tripping me into letting her be a part of mine and my sons life. Like NO!!!!

Now you have your own family!! I always have said don't compare me to my family I am my own person I will be the best mom. I will be nothing like my mom.

@jrose114, and thank you. I'm still trying to plan out invites. I've seen like custom ones on etsy and stuff like that. But I really wanted to make mine custom. But idk where to even begin! Like I wanted to go to the craft store and get some nice card stock and use stickers and stencils. I wanted it to be something personal. Not just your average invite. But it's hard to do it alone :/

@jrose114, yea I don't even dare give my mom a second of my time. She blames out "poor" relationship on me. And won't admit that she ever did anything wrong! And I can't deal with that. But she's gladly taken in her new husbands kids as her own. So I'm sure she's just fine. And oh wow. I won't even tell my mom where any of my events are. And God forbid she shows up. Because it will probably be the end of her life right there. I don't play that shit. And that's nice that she paid for yalls wedding! I'm jealous! When I got engaged to my fiancé- my step mom and dad swore they were gonna save up to help pay for a part of the wedding. Well needless to say. That never happened. Not even 1 penny! But idc. I've decided against a wedding. We're going to the court house and just take a nice vacation after that! Fuck "family"

If you need some help with ideas on your baby shower you can msg me and I'll help finding stuff for you. I know it's hard trying to do it on your own.

And I never experience a step mom favoring someone over me but I do get what your saying cause I believe my MIL favors my husband and me over my brother in law and his wife. My mil gave us our wedding and did all of the showers for us and nothing for my brother in law. She would put them down on every decision they made in their relationship which in the end turned into my brother in law and his wife never talking to any of us again. It would make me feel horrible being around them

Yeah I get it I grew up in a broken home I never had a relationship with my mom either and then when I met my husband 7 years ago we finally started a relationship and then she decided to start using drugs again so we haven't talked for the past 4 years when k got married she ruined my wedding and rehearsal dinner by coming and fighting with my husbands parents. So I just cut her off. Since I became pregnant I wanted to tell her and see if she would clean her self up. She says she is clean but it's so hard for me to believe her I saw her and she looked good but I cried the whole time I was around her cause she is my mom but I am so disconnected from her

@jrose114, thanks mama! I appreciate it! My birth mom hasn't been a part of my life since I was 12. I cut her out because I'm just not a fan of drunk drug addicts which is what she was. Along with many other things. And my step mom has always favored her children over me. Even tho she's been a part of my life since I was like 2! So non of it is anything new. I guess it just really hit home today. Especially since I'm really trying to plan my baby shower. And I'm planning it alone. And my husband is paying for everything. Even tho she planned all 3 baby showers for her grand daughters. And my sister in laws wedding shower and she paid for majority of the stuff. But I guess I'll always be the odd one out. It's just hard. :/

So sorry if you need to talk I'm here
