Friend always wants to be included in family activities

[RaraWix]

I have a significant other & we have a 1 year old. I also have a best friend since childhood. She adores my baby and we see each other probably once a week. I love having her around.
the only thing is sometimes I feel like I just want it to be a my family thing. Idk if this is immature or weird of me. We are doing the pumpkin patch this weekend and she asked to come then asked if her sister could come too since they have no babies in their lives & I get it. (Although my best friend does hve many friends with kids that grew up around her). I just feel like this is a me, my man, and our baby 1st time fall thing.

how do I go about gently setting this boundary? Does this make me a terrible person? They say it takes a village… idk why I feel this way.

Fair enough. No need to be dismissive though with 'I knew there'd be one'. I've never not cringed when parents are patronising towards couples without children and it sounded like that to me reading your post. Apologies for misunderstanding.

I sometimes have felt like this about my inlaws - they were always around at key points when my DH was off work and I felt crowded by them.

Anyway, I think you will have to share your plans less with your friend. That’s how you start to create a bit of distance.

If it was me, I’d let her join this thing but next time don’t tell her your plans in advance. Then you can start to do stuff just with you and your little family

I can't get past "fall".
