I'm sure she thought I was crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-lo-this-weekend-#post-368047 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 14:46:41 +0000 DpeachLu 368047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well sounds to me that your BIL and his FI will do a better job than your MIL if she cancelled for the reason she did. Geez.<br /> I wouldn't mind if parents of a LO I was watching left detailed "tips" :-). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-lo-this-weekend-#post-368043 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 14:44:38 +0000 birdofafeather 368043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: yikes on the reason your MIL canceled! i'm sure your BIL will do great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-lo-this-weekend-#post-367858 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 13:17:56 +0000 MamaMoose 367858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: OMG no she did not. She sounds like a real treat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-lo-this-weekend-#post-367846 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 13:12:52 +0000 autumnlove 367846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: Ugh! She told me that she gave it more thought and doesn't think I should attend the wedding and leave LO so she decided to cancel! She doesn't have new plans or anything!! :-( I was so annoyed but acted like it was no big deal and just asked my BiL if he was available. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-lo-this-weekend-#post-367831 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 13:05:31 +0000 MamaMoose 367831@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well the good news is you guys aren't going any where that you'll be unreachable! So you know they can always call you with questions. And it sounds like they are more than capable. It will probably a fun weekend for all three of them!!</p> <p>Stinky that you MIL cancelled on you last minute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-lo-this-weekend-#post-367814 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 12:54:38 +0000 mrs. wagon 367814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awww... I would be anxious too!! I left lots of detailed instructions whenever we left Wagon Jr. with family members. Like, an hour by hour schedule, detailed step by step for meals and naptimes, etc. They all found it very helpful.. both my mom and MIL would "study" the instruction sheets at night. hehe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/leaving-lo-this-weekend-#post-367718 Tue, 30 Oct 2012 12:19:58 +0000 autumnlove 367718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are going to a wedding this weekend and we are leaving LO with one of my BILs and his FI after my MIL cancelled on us! I'm totally nervous but they are great with LO and they are expecting their own little one in a few months!</p> <p>Any tips? Do you leave really detailed instruction lists or are you more laid back when you leave your LO? </p>
