Oh I forgot to mention....
So MiL mentioned that she didn't say anything to SiL about us not wanting to take her girl apple picking with us.
Then her and aunt tried to tell us how mean we were and how well behaved she was when they went to Florida with her etc etc.
This is AFTER MiL told us a story about how the niece threw toys and refused to play with and threw tantrums with other kids. And after aunt told us how they lost her in a store once.
Then they try to guilt us and tell us that she's well behaved. AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Give me a damn break. We've been around her... we know damn well how well behaved she is.
Let me just say, I have absolutely NO delusions that Zoe is some perfect child and doesn't have a chance at being the same way.... it's just that right now, she isn't and we shouldn't have to put up with our niece that DH and I would end up having to watch on this trip.
Then they tried to tell us that she was great when they went strawberry picking. Uhm... again, not the same. Strawberry bushes are tiny little plants on the ground and you can see clear across the strawberry field, so even if she ran for it, you could still see exactly where she was. An apple orchard are frickin thick bushy trees that she could easily get lost in if you take your eyes off of her.
So yeah, it's just going to be a small family trip with just us which I am totally happy and fine with.
They are not going to guilt us for not wanting to bring her and I was SO glad when she wasn't with us for dinner too.
I must sound so mean right now lol.
She is a really smart little girl that has her moments and she could very well be great and really well behaved during the trip, but no..... we would just rather not deal with any potential headaches.
We're taking her to the fair on Wed and we'll even let her play some games. That's good enough.
