[quote=Anonymous]OP, streamline your menu; one turkey or whatever, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce from can, green beans in butter, roasted sweet potatoes and red onions; pumpkin & apple pie. Buy premade items wherever possible. Announce ahead of time who is responsible for what. Practice saying "Mom/Dad, can you please give me a hand with X?" Keep everything else simple. Like a PP said, this is your Thanksgiving and you get to decide what it's like! Don't be afraid to say you have to go lie down, don't be afraid to take the baby away from them (or, conversely, ask them to take the baby for a walk in the stroller). [/quote]
