I have a question. I am going to Texas for a family reunionthis weekend. we are driving and it usually would take 8-9 hours.my daughter is 18 months old and is going. When we get ther that evening we are suppose to go eat with my dad and some of his sisters and brothers. but they will not be able to get there until about 7. my daughters bedtime is 8 and she getsd irritable when she is sleepy so i told my sister they may have to go without me. my dad said he understood but my sister keeps on and on. She will be fine etc. etc. etc. she does not have kids, and i dont like disrupting my daughters scedule unless i have to.any suggestions.i know it is already going to be a long day for her in the car.

See if your family will have take out or some kind of food ready for when you arrive. That way you guys can eat right away and she can go to bed on time.

You can put your foot down and if it is to late say no how about a breakfast instead.

Ya know what you are her mom and if u feel she will make the whole dinner a headache for u then dont go . Like u said your sister has no children so let her understand exactly why u feel this way.
Maybe like the other member said a breakfast would be better.

the trip tur5ned out great. The car ride was very good. I couldnt have asked any better. She didnt cry or hardly fuss for 9.5 hours. i did get to go eat with everyone. when we got there she was so excited and wasnt acting tired. deveryone could not believe how good she was.thanks for checking back. i guess i was stressing for nothing.
