The Phase of My Life

[eastofthemoon]

A few years ago, Mom told me that I would be entering a phase of my life when it seems everyone I know is either getting married or having kids. I know I'm in the phase now, because I found out that my cousin from my mom's side is pregnant with her first child. She was also the first one among my cousins to get married too, so we've been expecting this for awhile.

Still, everyone is pretty excited since this will be the first grand child in my mom's side of the family. (My grandmother is look forward to being a great grandmother apparently. XD) I just learned how to crochet and once I'm done the blanket I'm making for myself, I'm thinking about trying to make a baby blanket for her as a gift.

Update on the wedding plans, we've booked the plane tickets for the honeymoon in the Disney. We're going to book the hotel reservation later this month, but the travel agent Stu and I talked to said we didn't have to worry about buying tickets or meal plans just yet. She suggested we might want to wait and see if there would be any special deals around that time anyway.

Also, secondlina was awesome and finished the design for my wedding invitations. You can see them HERE dqbunny has kindly offered to design and type the information on the invitations for me. Hopefully, I'll be able to sit down and decide what should say on the cards this week. (Sorry for the wait Megs! ^_^; ) My ultimate goal is to have the invites sent out by November.

All in all, wedding plans are going smoothly.

I haven't entered in that phase of my life yet but it seems interesting to notice things like that. Congratulations to your cousin and you grandmother, she's going to be great grandmother soon XD. My grandparents were great grandparents three years after I was born and they were expecting to become great great grandparents or something like that a few years ago ^^U.

The design for the wedding invitations is cute ^^

Yeah, I had that phase a few years ago.

And the illustration for your invitations look really cute! But then Isa does good stuff anyway...

I hope you'll show them to us once they're complete.

Hey Disney World! You'll be in my neck of the woods!!

Very sweet and personal.

My daughter got engaged this summer after several years of watching friends get married and having babies, although not necessarily in that order. We're just getting started with the wedding madness. We've recently had fun at David's Bridal. Since my husband and I basically eloped, it's all a new whorled to me!

It's never going to happen to me as I love the single life!

Now if I were to have kids then my grandmother would also become a great-grandmother...it's rather scary to think about. o_0

But I am excited for your wedding plans!

That phase in my life has come and starting to pass me by. LOL I think I will cry if my youngest cousins get married and have kids before me. LOL

Glad you guys love the invite!

And yeah, it's the time, where everyone is hooking up and making babies. I,m always a little puzzled by it, since i,m more interested in making comics, but whatever makes folks happy, you know? :D
