People causing drama.....I don't even want to have my shower anymore :( (Long vent)
I don't have any family here except my mom. All of my family lives at least 14 hours away and won't be able to come to my baby shower. My husband's whole family lives here. They kept saying we needed to have a baby shower, but as time went on, no one planned anything. So, my mom decided to plan something with my best friend. It's going to be on a Sunday afternoon and they're having it at a really nice banquet hall that has really good food! I was really looking forward to it.
Well, my husband's aunt has decided that she doesn't like any of the plans we've made (day, date, location, time, food) and so she isn't going to help anymore and that she wants to throw a seperate shower for my husband's family at a much later date. My mom and my mother in law both think that is so stupid. With the money she would save, she could just buy something nice for the baby. My mother in law said that her sister is a control freak and has to have everything her way or no way. So now, she doesn't want us inviting anyone from her side of the family, so that she can have her own shower.
There are 2 problems with this...#1 She may mean well, but I doubt she will actually throw us another shower....#2 There won't be many people at either shower. I'm just afraid that there won't be many people that show up, and my mom will end up spending a lot of money for nothing.
Why do this have to be so difficult? I just wanted to have a nice day to celebrate the arrival of our first child. Every time I think about it, I start crying. I don't even want the shower anymore.
