    Ok may be long but here goes

    MY MUM IS DOING MY NUT IN!!!!!!!! she is being a total Mumzilla!!!
    She has been invited to a 2nd or 3rd cousins wedding in june and all she keep saying is how posh it will be and how she has spent so much money making it perfect etc Well I am not as lucky as my cousin and everything me and H2B are having we have paid for ourselves the cousin has been lucky enough to have her mum and dad pay for alot and her fella is in quite a well paid job so they have been able to splurge good for them!
    I found little footbal gift bags for the boys coming to my wedding (only having 7 children there 6 boys 1 girl) and was telling her they were £4 each but got them with 75% off so was quite chuffed but she adds your cousin is doing that but she has asked for the ages of the children so they go with their ages

    and to top it all off my mum has gone all out and bought an outfit from Marks and Spencers with shoes and hat all posh for the cousins wedding but has said pick something out of the catalogue for mine as she doesn't have the money to go out and buy an outfit for mine even though she has had over a year to save up for something!!! and I have been butting heads with her over the oufits she wants to wear at mine (I will add some pics) She is giving me away but wants to wear one outfit to give me away and one to change into for the night (I don't see why she has to change outfits)

    and then to top it off she has said when I am reading my speech I will be coming over and standing next to you I said why? most people just stand at their seats and faces the bride and groom and she said well I want to I am reading my speech stood next to you because her OH will be filming it and she is the MOTB and that is what she wants to do!
    It feels like she just has to have centre of attention sometimes I don't know if she does it on perpose but I find it really annoying!

    I need strength because it's really starting to P me off it really feels like she is trying to compete with me I know that sound silly to most people but she has been like this for a long time
    any advice is welcome but just had to vent
    xx

    I don't think she knows she is doing it but it's really frustrating because she then feels like I just having a go but I want her to look the part not just for me but whatever she wears is going to be on my photos forever and If she is going to start having a mid life crisis not to have it at my wedding lol
