[quote=Anonymous]Can you do your “Christmas” dinner with your parents Christmas Eve or New Year’s or something? Since Thanksgiving will necessarily be primarily with your parents (since they’re hosting) I think your MIL might be jealous your parents are getting two holidays and she’s getting none. But if you are clear that Christmas Day is entirely sans grandparents maybe that will help? But tbf it might not make a difference and I definitely think you’re right to not plan to host stressful holidays this year with a new baby. If your in-laws were the sort to be helpful (babysitting older kid, doing laundry/dishes) I think it would be nice to include them in a low key Christmas but it sounds from your post like they won’t help and will expect to be hosted so definitely hold firm![/quote]
