On a throwaway.

I (22f) and my bf (24m) have 3 kids, aged 3, triplets. When we moved into the house it has 4 bedrooms. we have one, our daughter has one, and the boys share, and then a playroom for their toys. When they’re older one of the boys will move to the playroom but they’re still little, and I’ve read little kids should sleep in a calm, minimal room with toys separate for better sleep, so we’re doing that for now.

My brother (32m) has a daughter “Lucy” (2f). He and his wife married 2 years ago but weren’t able to go on a honeymoon because Lucy was only a month old at the time, so they postponed it and things happened, so they’re going now for their anniversary. They left yesterday for a week and I’m watching Lucy.

They left in a hurry for their plane, so I took her things and unpacked. I put her in my daughters room. It’s a bit cramped but for a week it’ll do and they don’t spend all day in there anyway. We FaceTimed that night, right before her bedtime. I told them Lucy was sleeping with my daughter, and they didnt say anything to that except they wanted to call after everyone was in bed.

So we called again, and they asked why Lucy had to share a room when they know the playroom is fine. I told them the playroom was very messy (my fault) and it was so cluttered and bright that Lucy might have trouble going to sleep, and my daughter still had room while the playroom would have to be emptied a bit to fit all her equipment. But they demanded I move her tomorrow, and I should have known their daughter deserved to be by herself since she is at home. So today while everyone was at preschool/playgroup I set up her things in there, but I’m wondering if it really was a super bad thing to do. I didn’t think it would matter, since they never told me she was to be by herself, but again they probably assumed. I don’t know if I did something terrible because they were acting like it was, or if they’re overreacting. They’ve texted every couple hours now to make sure I’m not forgetting things and they’ve never done that before when I watched her in the past, so maybe they don’t trust me anymore? Idk. AITA? (Before anyone asks, I don’t want to get my bf involved because he’s stressed enough with school and work)
