Wardrobe meltdown part one

I have had a pretty busy weekend. Well, the busiest it has been before Christmas and for me.

Yesterday, Sim and I were invited to Julia's Christening. Julia is my friend Anna's ADORABLE little girl. They're Russian Orthodox which was a experience to behold. I knew from their wedding that they do everything in threes which makes the service a little long and you stand for the entire thing. Julia was such a good girl. She hardly cried at all until they "slam dunked" her in the baptismal "pond. After they stripped her down, the Priest took her and laid her face down with her head in his palm and body along his arm. Then they dunked her whole body 3 times head first into the pond.

Simon didn't up going because of a diva moment. Getting ready at our house is always an epic battle. For the amount of clothing we have, finding an appropriate outfit shouldn't be a problem. Sadly, about 50% of the time one of us has a major wardrobe problem.

I was hoping we would have warm weather this weekend and Simon could wear his nice dress shorts. I was under the impression that he had nice dress pants as well but apparently he doesn't. Instead he wanted to wear his suit pants and I thought that would be way too dressy. So he put on his brand new Tommy Hilfiger polo and dress shorts.

When we pulled up to the church all the other guys were in suit pants and nice shirts. Simon threw a massive fit. Going on about how he was underdressed and it was all my fault. And how he really wanted to go but now he was going to miss it. Oh and it's all my fault because I made him wear shorts. In the end he went home and I went inside with my friend Sharon and her kids.

After the Christening, Sim came and got me because we had to go to his friend's 30th birthday party. She was having in the park near our house which was very good for us. The weather had gotten even colder and the wind picked up so we dashed home for a quick wardrobe change. The weather got even worse and we didn't stay more than 2 hours which was fine by me. We ended up going over to Simon's parent's house and the future sister in law made us all dinner.

I feel like there has been lots of other things I have been wanting to write about but keep forgetting. Don't you just hate when that happens? Oh well!
