I survived the IL's

Oh good gravy! The IL's called to say they were coming for a couple of days and asked to watch the boys while we were at work.  I called my very wise mom and told her I didn't want MIL watching them.  She explained that I was being a jerk and that although it's not ideal they would be safe and I could get them back on schedule within a couple of days...

WELL... I got home from work and there was Oliver chewing on a plastic bag! A PLASTIC BAG?!?!? I freaked and grabbed it from him, and they said "Oh, he loves it, he's been playing with it for an hour."So much for them keeping him safe!

I went ballistic and  said I was glad he didn't die!!!! They went on to make jokes about it the entire night- then DH got home and let them have it.  I have never been so pissed in my life- they will never be alone with my babies again!

ARGH!

    Ha! It's only funny because Oliver isn't dead.  Of course he liked playing with it, it makes a great crinkly sound... and that's why all bags come with the warning "This is NOT A TOY" printed on it.  Oy!

    Wait, plastic bags aren't toys?  But the boys love them!

    Seriously, how dumb do you have to be to let a child play with a plastic bag?  Another vote here for never letting your ILs watch them ever again.

    It sounds like your DH is on the same page as you, which is great.  How does he feel about it?

    How did your husband make it out alive?

    While I was changing DS2 this morning, he decided to grab the almost empty bag of diapers and start to eat it.  I was all, "oh, excellent grabbing skills, hon!  Is that yummy? Oh wait... you probably shouldn't be eating a plastic bag.  Give that to mommy."

    In my defense, I'm still new at this. Big Smile

    They have FOUR kids! All of which survived! It's insane- I have no idea how they made it!

    I can't believe they did that and THEN made jokes about it. I would have gone apesh!t over the comments, I know it.
