He seems to think we can still do everything. The last two weekends my parents have kept DS over night on Saturday. The 21st of this month they are keeping him while we go to a work event for DH. The 31st we have a wedding reception to go to. Now, some friends of ours are going skiing for a weekend Feb 5-8. They do this every year and we have never been. So we would have to buy all the necessary clothing and DH wants to take a couple lessons first since they know what they are doing and we do not. Besides that, we have asked my parents to watch/keep DS an awful lot. We can't just get a baby sitter for most of this stuff because its overnight stuff. His mom is worthless and I wouldn't leave DS with her for more than an hour or two. He just seems to think we can keep doing all of this stuff. Oh not to mention we have 3 dogs so when doing stuff overnight we usually have to find someone to stay with them and that person is the one inviting us to go skiing so that's out of the question. I'm just frustrated right now. Yes I would love to do everything too but I'm realistic about it. I also feel bad that he will miss out. I would love to tell him to just go but I know I would end up being irritated about it because he was out having fun and I was not.

Re: DH just doesn't get it
what would i do with him while everyone else was skiing all weekend?? this is a group of single, no kids people. they'll go out to dinner and lots of drinking. it still would leave the issue though of no one to watch the dogs.
I feel your pain on the dogs thing. We have 2 and we only have a couple of people that we feel comfortable to stay here at the house with them. FIL flaked at the last minute last month and we ended up taking them to the kennel which was NOT cheap.
As far as the skiing thing, if they are advanced and you guys are beginner, does DH know that he's probably not going to see them much on the slopes?
I hope you figure it all out!
