[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand - why would you give a christmas themed dress for christmas, when there will not be an occasion to wear it afterwards?  ILs go to church on christmas eve (and DD has a nice dress for that) and they hang out in their PJs all day christmas day, so there's no opportunity for DD to wear the dress after the holiday when she opens it on christmas day.  And since it's in her current size, it won't fit her next year for christmas (and I would totally appreciate that gesture).  Can someone please explain what MILs reasoning might be?  [/quote]

How do you know she is getting a xmas dress as a gift?

Did MIL tell you?  Did she also say she was going to give it to you asap so the little one can wear it to the festivities/church/dinner/ whatever?  Did you ask?

It's quite common for grandparents to love to buy special occasion clothes for their grandchildren. Sometimes you might have to suck it up.  One year our DD1 only wore the xmas dress we got her for the holiday card pics, then had to wear Grandma's santa outfit all Xmas day.  oh well. $40, flush. [/quote]
