My DD is 2 and my DS is 1. DDs birthday is early January so planning for Christmas and her birthday needs to be done a while in advance. I've been buying things and putting them away and today, she's come home with a Disney doll I bought for Christmas from her day of childcare with my inlaws. My DS also got a toy which we had planned to buy for his Christmas.
DD was unwell last week and in laws watched her. They took her shopping and bought her a doll then too. I understood she wasn't well but today was for no reason.
We have asked on numerous occasions that they don't buy toys especially in the run up to Christmas. I now have to take this doll back for a swap or keep it for a birthday gift for one of her friends. Me and DH work full time and have been planning ahead buying things for months which we've mentioned to in laws.
AIBU to be annoyed that they've bought presents today when we asked them not to? What do other families do? We're already finding it hard to decide what to get DS for Christmas as it is with him being young and playing with a lot of his sisters toys.
