[quote=Anonymous]Another vote that you all go and suck it up. I propose that you look for a bedroom/office/linen closet that would be available from when DS 2 goes to bed-->an hour or so after DS1 goes to bed. That way, you can put the baby down, and move him after DS1 is done with his talking-in-bed routine. Alternatively, you could just plan on DS2 being awake when DS1 goes to bed--take that opportunity to wake DS2, feed him a bottle, rock him to sleep somewhere else quiet while DH puts DS1 to bed. Then bring DS2 back in once DS1 is asleep. If you are still nervous, I would get ONE hotel room as a backup, and if the kids are really bad at sharing rooms, then you and the baby go to the hotel, and DH can still be part of all the adults staying up late and chatting. We have a HUGE extended family, and I have never regretted attending a gathering, no matter how chaotic, exhausting, and miserable it all was. That time with family is so precious.[/quote]
