Right here is the deal, we have a 9 mo DD, we have decided that this year we will go to MM on Xmas Eve, MIL Xmas Day and DD on Boxing Day - crazy I know!!
Anyway you would have thought that she would have been pleased with this, all she keeps on at is are we staying the night, we have already said twice that we are not staying and that Xmas evening when DD is i bed is going to be our time but she keeps on, it is driving me absolutely mad, my DH just keeps saying, " well we are not staying so just ignore it" but I just find it childish that she keeps on at us hoping we will change our mind!! ARGHHHH Sorry, Rant Over!
Has anyone had experiences like this with their inlaws!?

Isn't it standard MIL practice to keep on asking in the hope that somebody will give way?

The best answer is You have already asked me and the answer has not changed with a nice smile!

Will do Jackstini!! I told DH last night that it is his mother and he must deal with it so no doubt... nothing will happen! haha.
Need to be firm.....
