Back from Vacay & In Law update!

So, Vegas was a blast. ?Even though it was hard to leave the lil one, I managed to make it through with all the fun things to do. ?Only sucky thing was when I was packing I went to grab my stuff from the bathroom and on the counter right infront of my cosmetics bag was a HUGE moth. ?I'm kind of terrified of bugs so I freaked and attempted to turn and leave the bathroom. ?Of course while doing this I slipped and fell and hit my cheek on the counter and bent my knee backwards so I'll be going to the Dr. today about the knee. ?Oops!

As for my in-laws, while I was gone I got about a dozen nasty voicemails and emails. ?And when I say nasty, I mean HORRIBLE!! They were from FIL, SIL, and BIL. ?To give you an idea here are some examples.

"DID YOU CONSIDER NAMING MIA AFTER RHONDA? NO!!!!!!!!!THAT IS OUR CUSTOM/ NO YOU DID THINGS YOUR WAY.NAMED FIRST AND MIDDLE NAME AFTER YOUR SIDE.

YOU THINK THAT YOU ARE AN ANGEL, YOU ARE A B*TCH"

From Vmails they said I was

*Evil

*Vindictive

*Baby stealer

*Selfish for ruining the birth experience of my daughter for MIL

*Said at the first chance they got they were going to tell DD that she was an "accident"

*Disgraceful that I chose to have mother's day brunch at Newcastle, which is where SIL had her wedding, knowing it was "her location" and should have gone elsewhere.

*They are going to sue me and are retaining an attorney because we replaced SIL/BIL as G-dparents (huge mistake)?

And what really got me...

I am a druggie who broke into IL's house and went through their papers and am trying to steal an inheritance so now they are changing their locks and passwords.

So, I did it, finally! ?We told them all that they are out of our lives and we only want positive people around and any future voicemails, texts, or emails will be deleted. ?I'm not bending this time.?

So, right now I'm feeling pretty good about having no drama or negativity. ?The only thing I wish for is cooler weather or AC.?

  • I'm totally serious when I say my IL's and yours could be bff's. I've only posted a fraction of how totally insane they are. Good for you for sticking up for you and your family. I'm just sorry you're having to deal with it at all.

    Oh my God.  These people are nuts.  This is the same group that has the couple pretendign they're your DD's parents on FB right?   weirdos.

     

    Good for you for standing up for yourselves.

  • I sincerely applaud you for standing up for yourself and your family.  I've only read of a couple of your posts about them, but they sound like incredibly selfish, vindictive and horrible people who do not need to be you or your DD's life.  I cannot believe the "accident" comment.

    Glad you had a great vacation, minus your knee!

  • OMG I think that is about the craziest thing I have ever heard. And I thought my MIL was a nutcase. I hope things get better for you now that you are taking the drama and pushing it out. No negative is what you and your family need.

    Glad you had fun on your trip though. GL at the Dr. =]

  • okay, first of all, I'm so glad you had a good time in Vegas. Sorry about your knee. I know how you feel, I've definitely taken falls like that running from bugs.

    Now, I can't remember what the deal with your in-laws was in the beginning, but oh my gosh! I cannot believe they harassed you like that! I'm proud of you guys for telling them they are no longer allowed to be a part of your lives if they're going to be that way. I feel like there's more to the story than I know, I'm sure, but my goodness you are a strong woman for putting up with it as long as you did! I'm glad you are feeling good about it and I hope that they eventually just get tired of bothering you and leave you alone. It's sad that Mia may not get to know her grandparents, but it seems like she might be better off.

     Good luck! I hope they leave you alone!

  • Ohh, I feel you!! ?We should start a club. ?It gives a whole new meaning to monsters in law. ?Do you have to have a lot of contact with them? ?Cutting them out was my last possible option but at some point, no matter if they are DH's parents or not, no one should have to put up with such abuse.

    Thanks for saying I have PPD and need to get my med's checked (I don't have PPD and am not on meds) and for saying I am a slut for wearing open toed shoes...door...exit :)?

  • I'm so sorry you have to go through this and breaks my heart that your DH has to realize his family is crazy. Brave of you for breaking it off - no one needs that - good luck - thoughts are with you!

  • OMG Carrie!  Sueing you for replacing them as Godparents?!?!

    Can you sue for something like that?!?!

    Keep them far, FAR away from your daughter!  Good for you!!! 

    I'm still just shocked.  How the hell can you steal your own daughter?!?!?

    Time-out - they have a different couple pretending to be your childs parents!? WTH? Dang, I am even more proud of you for cutting them out now!

  • I am glad you had a good trip in Las Vegas sounds fun except for the fall.

    And I am so sorry you have bad IL's to deal with. I can't even imagine being treated like that by family. I am so sorry you are going thru this.

    Open toed shoes?! LMAO!

    "You better not show too much toe! That's slutty!"  

    Both DD and I haven't seen or talked to IL's for almost 3 months and won't be until certain people get help and apologize to me. (To ME and not to me through DH, that doesn't count.) DH just saw his mom on Sun and shes just as crazy as ever. It's all a bunch of bull honky. I told DH he could bring DD over to see his mom if he feels comfortable with it, but even he doesn't want to. He doesn't trust her. That's tellin' ya something.

  • Good.for.you.  Even though this was a last resort, I agree with pp's about ridding yourselves of the negativity.  I think you tried a lot harder than I would have.

    Glad you enjoyed your trip, minus the nasty bug incident.  That sounds like me around spiders. :-P

  • My mouth is literally hanging open.  I vaguely recall the craziness around your wedding and a few other shennanigans post-Mia's birth, but this is just lunacy!  I had no idea you were putting up with such nonesense for 3+ years! How you even put up with this thus far is beyond me.  As far as I'm concerned, these people need to EARN their place in your daughter's life.  Based on their behavior it should not be a given.  Bravo to you for setting firm boundaries.

    Family rifts are so painful to endure. Especially when kids are involved.  I hope that sometime down the line, these people come to their senses and do some major apologizing and groveling to you and your DH.

    Ugh...just makes me sick to my stomach. I'm sorry you've had to endur this.

  • Good lord, they sound horrendous!! Sounds like staying far, far, far away from them is the best thing. Ugh, what awful people to say such nasty, hateful things.

    But, sounds like Vegas was a blast!

    And, yep, I'm quite the hooker with those shoes huh? ?Shall I be more like their daughers who commit charity fraud and cheat and lie? ?I'm definitely the horrible one :)?

    I totally forgot about your SIL and the charity thing - what ever actually happened with that?

    So your SIL owns Newcastle and you aren't allowed to go there anymore. Wow...

    You win the unfortunate prize of having the WORST ILs in the world!! What a bunch of crazy wackos.

    Sorry about your knee..hope it gets better. And I am glad you are kicking those crazies out of your life.

  • Oh my gosh.  How sad!  If I were you, I'd keep copies of all emails, texts, and messages in case you need them in the future.  You might want to consult a lawyer just to have the upperhand here.  Yikes.

  • That is crazy!! I agree with keeping all of the emails and messages, just in case.
  • Stick to it...it's hard, but it gets really easy when you think about your little one around all that mess. I don't talk to my 'dad' or his family, and I figure because they're all older than me...

    I'll just outlive them.
