My mother in law is due to stay with us from tomorrow for a week or so.
There's an event that I've been excited about for a month now that we can do as a family (mum, dad and baby)
I don't particularly want my mother in law to come with us because I just want it to be a family thing we do as we don't do too much as a family of three.
Am I wrong to be thinking like that or asking my husband?

How often do you do things with the 4 of you?
Well not a crazy amount but I've been talking to my husband about this for a while and she wasn't meant to come until sat/sun anyway

I don't know what she's like but I think generally the more the merrier! Unless she's awful hopefully she should just add to your day, it will be special for her as well, and you'll have someone to take pics of the 3 of you. I personally wouldn't even float the idea, I understand it's hard to get family time sometimes but she's family too and coming to stay. Without further context I think it would be unkind to leave her at home and hard to explain.
