[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry, OP, but I suspect you're trying to get people to tell you what you want to hear...that you don't have to go. But I think you do have to go and I think you should want to go, frankly. It's one weekend and it may be miserable. So what. Suck it up. It's family and it's important, and please think about our husband for a second and how important this is for him...for you NOT to cause problems with something relating to his family.  Your children will survive a 3-day trip with less than optimum sleep...and so will you. I think you're trying to throw out all sorts of "logical" reasons why you can feel better about bailing but they all seem like a stretch to me. Why not just get a hotel room at the 25 mile-away place and then YOU and baby can sleep there while DH and son stay at the lake house. Just drive back and forth...you might relish the break from all the family. And to me you do sound a little princessish. PS: i'm sure you've learned by now that things change with children quickly...the singing to sleep thing might be over by the time this event rolls around. [/quote]

+1 but I think you need to suck it up and stay in the house.  This has a lot of potential to blow up and for you to end up being considered the difficult in-law by MIL, SIL and the extended family.  It's 3 days...[/quote]
