Very annoyed. hub and I are planning a anniversary trip on nov to Taiwan tgt with lo. & mil commented that LO is still too young. Never mind. than after that, she said to go with them to Taiwan in dec. Damn annoying, in nov LO is 6 months old, Dec is 7 months old. 6 months old counted as young, 7 months old is not?

Oh dear. I reckon maybe your MIL is worried that you and your husband cannot manage with LO and maybe that's her way offering help or hinting that she wants to join the family holiday, Old people are like that sometimes, they say things one way but they actually mean well. Can be quite irritating but I'm sure we are all accustomed to how old folks are with these things. Since it's an anniversary trip, just tell her that directly, say you need privacy (to make baby number 2 maybe -- that should stop her from coming along haha) and insist that you and your husband can manage just fine.

hmm.. I don't think it's tht.. as I'm the main caregiver.. and I DL only.. I was thinking maybe she just want us to go as a family and spend time tgt.. I know her intention is good, but just tht her way of telling me, I find it a lil annoying. hahahaha.
