My guy cousin's gf arrived at my shower (I met her once). Him and her just had a baby together in April. Instead of saying hi, she shoved a book of baby pictures into my hand and started telling me about him. I normally wouldn't mind, because I absotlutely love kids but she went around to every other person with the album all day long. She also told everyone that they would meet her son at my wedding and everyone would get to hold him.
I called my guy cousin after the shower and mentioned that the baby could not come in a civil way, that only the kids in the bridal party got invited. He got mad, questioned why, and hung up when I apologized and didn't change my mind.
I wouldn't be surprised if they try to show up to my wedding anyway with the baby in hand since they 'CAn't FIND A BABYSITTER!'
Why does family get psycho when someone gets married

Re: shower peeve
Can we say LOSER??? I love kids as well but I can't STAND when peopel use their children to get everyone's attention when quite frankly it is not the time nor the place. Nothign worse than having baby pics or the darn baby shoved in your face! My cousin is like that we adore her children (girl 7 boy 5) but cmon they aren't infants how come whenever someone asks me about weddign plans all we hear about are your children?!

Re: shower peeve
that is a terrible way to behave!!
i never understand why people make such a big deal out of this. you would think that they would want a nice night out and not have to worry about feeding their kids, keeping them busy and occupied, keeping the quiet.. i'll never understand it!
