Bombarding Family

We don’t live in the same state as my parents & siblings. My mom is coming in March to stay with us. However, she is such an instigator for my siblings to come up to visit in June for two weeks. I have many dilemmas with that

1. I have to pay for their flights and they are not cheap.

2. I have to fly them to Minneapolis and drive there (10 hours) and drive back (10 hours)

3. I can’t have them fly directly to me because my sister is 12 and brother 16 so I have to pay a child fee on top of their regular flight prices.

4. I work full-time and will be back to work in June so they’ll be home alone while I work, husband works, and baby is in daycare. This also makes the trip to pick them up a pain. Nor do I want to take my 3 month old on a trip that long.

5. They are expensive. They eat a lot and my grocery bill triples when they visit.

I love them but I can’t see how I can have them this summer. I just don’t have the balls to tell my sister this. She is in love with me and this baby already and her summer plans are to come visit us.

Rant over. Just needed to get this off my chest. Thanks for reading! Lol
