Question?

My MIL & SIL are having a shower for me. It's supposed to be a surprise. Anyway my sister called me last night and told me that she got an invitation to my shower, didnt tell me when and where, just that it didnt say where i was registered and wondered if it was just her invite or everyones. Then this morning i get 2 calls from my girlfriends asking me where im registered that its not on the invites. Should i call my MIL and tell her that she forgot and people are calling me or just let it go. Why arent people calling her RSVP # and asking her? (besides my sister who cant stand DH entire family, thats why she called me)

ETA: well scratch the i dont know where part out, DH best friend just called and said, Jenny his gf) got your invite, where are you registered? By the way Domenicos has really good food, good choice, and i said thanks wasnt my choice though. and he said uh oh you didnt know did you? I said nope, and he said sorry gotta go and hung up.
Well how long before the next dummy calls and gives me the date. So much for surprises.

I would call your MIL and tell her. Its too late now to do anything about it unless she mails something out today.

Did they put surprise onthe invitation? Maybe the attendees don't realize it was supposed to be. Oops!

I'd have DH call his mom and say that he thinks you may know more than you want to about your shower since people keep calling you to ask about your registry. Then have him ask if she could contact everyone and let them know about your registry.

I havent told DH yet that i know where it is.
I have a feeling he is the one who is supposed to get me there.

Re: Question?

I dont understand everyone calling you. Even if they don't have where you are registered on the invite, the RSVP must have their phone #s. So why involve you? Many many showers are surprises (or try to be) so I can't fathom why so many people would call the guest of honor. I guess I'm no help in your dilemma but I was reading your post and finding it annoying that so many people are calling you.

ETA: Sorry, but that is incredibly obnoxious of your sister. This is not about her and who she doesnt like, this is your event. She could have just s*cked it up and called them rather than spoil your surprise.

I think you ought to call MIL and let her know that people are calling you and asking you where you are registered. MIL - SIL ought to have know to put that information on the invite and also that it was a surprise Chat Icon

Re: Question?

I wonder if your MIL or SIL put an RSVP # on the invites (that weird)

But not for nothing - none of these people can look up the baby stores in the area and see where you are registered?

I don't understand why people are calling you. They should ask your MIL when they RSVP.
What is the matter with people?

Im going to call her when she gets home from work. Im going to tell her about people calling me, but im not going to tell her i know where it is. I know she would be really upset about that. I will just try to look surprised i guess.
