And definitely no more gifts.
So I ended up going at my mams insistence, apparently I'd look bitter and jealous if I didn't attend so to keep the peace, I went.
I brought some homemade scones because I didn't want to go with my arms swinging. Pregnant relative was none too impressed at the lack of gift, although a lot of people brought nothing at all :pac:
Everyone in attendance just took the p*ss, nobody had any idea what we were supposed to do or say.
We all just sat there awkwardly until the "reveal".
The name, as expected, was completely normal (Irish name beginning with C, rhymes with Reeva).
Bit of an anti-climax, everyone oohed and ahhed at how great it is, except for one aunt who loudly announced she hated it.
Everyone left immediately after, no one stayed for the "party", most likely due to the fact that they had their own plans with their own families for Easter.
My cousin ended up getting upset at the lack of shared excitement and is apparently calling us all selfish & ungrateful for not staying to "celebrate" the name of her child.
I'm glad I went now because she made a total wagon of herself with with overly precious notions :pac:0 -

Cringe!
So she was expecting even more presents. And the child is not even born yet!
Fair play bringing the scones. I would have been one of the ones with the arms swinging. 0 -

Robert Smith from the Cure would probably agree...Kids YouTube videos. The kids are watching one at the moment. Some American dad, with the most grating voice on the planet, screaming with excitement as his kids open presents.
And yet it has millions of views....
