This weekend at FSIL birthday party, FI’s niece (wife of one of the nephews standing up for us) approached me about wedding stuff. She was telling me how her parents and her in laws are the only ones she trusts to watch her girls (1 and 4). She has a 21 year old sister who can watch them but she is afraid to leave them w/ her at night because she’s not used to keeping them for extended periods of time, and the little one won’t sleep in any bed besides her own. Obviously her in laws can’t keep them since it’s FI’s sister, so that leaves her parents. She told me a little about a situation with her parents, but couldn’t go into detail because she was drunk and didn’t want to start crying – but anyhow she is worried they may not be able to watch the girls and asked if it came down to it would she be able to bring them for a couple hours. I told her we’d cross the bridge when it gets here but that my parents (who are paying) are adamant about no little kids and a lot of family members would be pizzed if they saw someone with little kids at the reception when they had to leave theirs at home (especially the ones OOS). We couldn’t really talk because drunken family members kept interrupting us. I told her to call me any time and we can talk more. She said she’s going to start bringing them around her sister more often to get her accustomed to watching them more so it shouldn’t be a problem in 7 months but I really need to stand my ground on this and not let it bug me. FI already told his sister and his nephew that the babies were not invited and he was very adamant about it to her as well.
