I feel like my sister in law (my husband's brother's wife) is already trying to make things a competition between her almost 1yr old son & my due any day now daughter. My mom wants to put my baby in 1 pageant for Autism Awareness (April 24th) which is my nephew's 1st birthday. They haven't mentioned a party for him at all & usually don't do it on the day of anyways...but as soon as I start telling the family about the pageant so they can come she pops off with that's Blaze's 1st bday I said I know she said so you're going to miss is 1st bday party? I'm like well maybe we can work something out the pageant is at 2 & she replied with yeah we'll see...This makes me feel like she's about to intently make his party at or very close to that time (you know because there isn't other hours in a day) just to where the family will have to choose between the 2. :(
I hate to agree with your sister in law but if I were her it would feel like them picking your baby over hers. Even though I'm sure that's not what y'all are doing its going to feel like that to her. Even if there's not a party that day it will really be you making them choose between the two kids. There are plenty of pageants and that day should be about that little boy. It's not fair to him to have to share his day with your baby its his birthday. I would just do another pageant.
Yeah, but she had no party planned which means no one would have been at her house anyways. She keeps them away from us & takes them to her family. Never has any interest in our family until someone else plans something.
