To update you on last year's AIBU?

[BangBangPipple]

I've name changed a lot since then, but this time last year I posted on AIBU about uninviting DBro and SIL for drinks on Christmas day evening.

The jist of it was that DH and I had just found out we could not have children, and DBro and SIL had just found out they were having a baby a couple of months after they had met. SIL was being particularly insensitive about it and said some pretty nasty things that upset me, and I didn't want to spend my Christmas day in tears.

So for those of you who remember, here's the update:
DNiece was born in the summer. She is a beautiful little ray of sunshine and I adore her.
SIL is still not my favourite person but I have put the past behind me and moved on and actually enjoy her company now, and we are building the foundations for a very good and very positive friendship.
DH and I decided to adopt and bring our own baby home in two weeks.

I look back on this time last year and cannot believe how much has changed. I'm about 5 minutes away from being a #feelingblessed wanker
