Ugh - haven't even finalized the guest list and probs already!

my FSIL is pregnant with twins...which we are all excited for.... Her 9 month old is the flower girl (will be 2 at the wedding)

my other FSIL, her sister, says to her the other day..'what are you going to do with the twins for the wedding?'

and the pregnant one replies 'im going to bring them' (they will be 8 months old at the wedding).


um helllloooo....how do you know they are invited?? because they aren't!!

isn't it too early to deal with this??? she hasn't even had the kids yet and she's bringing them already!

oh boy....well i am in a similar situation...My sister in law (my brothers wife) is pregnant too and is due this December) the baby will be 6 months at the wedding....As for me..I dont mind....I don't care if the baby is there...

My FSIL (FH sister) is pregnant now and is due this May...so the baby will be 13 months at our wedding and our flower girl!!!

i wouldnt stress...i dont think you will get charged for them....is it that you dont want kids at the wedding?

yeah, it stinks to have problems like that already. I DO NOT want children at the wedding but with that said we have made the compromise that my sisters children and FI's sisters children will be invited. NOONE else's. I'm sure at some point in the future this will create drama but money wise that's just how it has to be. You have to decide if this is a battle that is important enough for you to fight.

the kids in the BP are invited, other than that I don't want any kids, because if I let FSIL bring hers, then I have to invite everyones, so it will add up - and i just dont want 25 kids running around during the wedding.

Would you consider offering to help find a babysitter for her twins? It might break the ice and start the conversation as far as the guest list goes.
