I knew it was a matter of time. Impressed that I lasted 13 days.
I simply went off tonight- which resulted in their belongs getting thrown out in the snow. DH isn't even home but when he gets home- he is sure going to have an earful.
OMGoodness, please tell me it was all caugt on video and will be posted on u-tube for us to see? I say yea!!! Glad they are gone. I have no idea how you lasted so long.
Today has just been a very long day- Chase has been up since 515am and took ONE 20 min nap. I gave up trying to get him to go down around 2pm- because it just wasn't happening. So I went over to a neighbor's for a playdate.
My best friend comes over every Wednesday to play with the kids/visit. She has 4 brothers and 10 nephews. She was OVER THE MOON excited when I told her I was having a girl. So she is very close to Gisele and spoils her rotten! (Chase too..). My BF is closer to my children than ANY family we have. I have been BF with her since I was 10. Well- (not that it matters) but my BF is gay. My inlaws had choice things to say about her in the past- but never to my/her face.
Tonight while Becky and I were playing in the living room with Gisele- they walked into the room and told me that I shouldn't allow her around our children or they will be gay. And they called my BF a 'cat' licker. RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY DAUGHTER and to my GF's face. I kid you not.
I saw about 10 shades of purple. Told GF (rather calmly) to take Gisele out and go get icecream. The second they left- I LAID into them and seriously went off. I told them they were NOT welcome in my house and they were to leave immediately. They said no. I said YES. Went upstairs and chucked their stuff out the window. When they went out to get it- I locked the door.
No one will EVER insult another person in my house like that. It is one thing if you have choice comments that you want to say TO ME. However- DO NOT dare insult someone in my house. Especially in front of my children.

That is unbelievable. I can't imagine anyone actually acting like that. Sounds like you were kind throwing their stuff out and kicking them out. I hope you're able to have a glass of wine tonight after that!
Wow! I can't believe they said that stuff in front of your BF or Gisele. That is just ridiculous and uncalled for. I love that you threw their stuff out in the snow and then locked them out!!! That is awesome!!!
I honestly do not know what DH is going to say- and I really don't care.
If my parents behaved like that in front of DH's best friend and our daughter- I would EXPECT him to throw my parents out. And I would be angry at him if he didn't.
Now if he doesn't feel that way- and he is angry at me. So be it.
I didn't mean he *should* be angry at you. Only that I wouldn't even know how to talk to my parents if they did something like that. There probably would be a LONG period of silence.
and for you.

Good for you! What a bunch of inconsiderate rude people! I only hope that if I was in the same situation as you I would have the guts to do the same because I know I would want to.
Wow! Before I even opened the post, I knew this was going to be a good one since there were already two hundred and something views and already 22 replies!
You are amazing for even hanging in there that long. I am sorry you had to deal with their BS while having your two young children at home with you too! That sucks! I really hope things are ok for you when your DH arrives home.
How did you hold off on calling him and telling him about his dad and girlfriend?

DH is still at work dealing with an important deadline with his international Singapore staff. I am sure he is going to be less than pleased- but oh well. such is life.

This entire situation is just epic. I can't imagine your DH can be mad about this. Not only have they been continuously disrespectful to you, but now they were completely derogatory and rude to your guests face and your children witnessed that behavior. He can't expect you to allow your children to be exposed to that (and he certainly shouldn't expect your friends to have to put up with your ILs BS). If your DH tries to place blame on you for anything, please bring him here so that he can see that you are a hero to many:-)
What a-holes to say that kind of stuff and in front of your friend too yet. I hope you told them that it's toxic people like THEM who will mess up your kids.
Holy s*%# Stacy!!! Damn, I am impressed. And for the life of me, I cannot BELIEVE they uttered those words AND in front of your friend.
btw, how is your friend? Was she pissed? Upset? Hurt? Annoyed? Dang... that is intense. But good for you. I still just can't believe there are people who not only think those things, but then say them out loud in front of others. Amazing.

Thanks for asking about her- that was sweet. She is ok. hurt of course. But sadly she is used to people judging her because of who she fell in love with-
She brought me back icecream and we all made sundaes. We didn't talk about what happened until Gisele went to bed.
Really makes me mad because my GF is one of the most caring person in the world- she was really hurt that my FIL's gf said that she would turn Gisele gay from hanging around with her. You could really tell that got to her.
Good for you for standing up for your best fried and your daughter and your family!!! No one should have to hear that and be subjected to that abuse. I am dying just imagining the scene... and why the heck were they there for 13 days!!! OMG.. that is just too long in itself.

Well I'm really sorry for your friend. I would probably have wanted to cry if someone said something so hateful about me, in front of me. You are a good friend to her I'm sure, and that was very sweet of her to get ice cream so you could all make sundaes. Ugh... I hope both you and her can just forget this one and leave it in the past.

You kick butt! I like to think I would have done the same thing, but honestly, I don't know for sure, since FIL mostly keeps his mouth shut. I am impressed!
Yes, yes - like the others have said, you are awesome.
But I am so angry for you!!!! What kind of ignorant piece of crap are these people?!?! Between that and the 6-9 month board post with the girl saying gay people shouldn't be parents, I am PISSED.
Why are people so dumb? Seriously.
I am so angry that there is still so much ignorance and hate about the gay community.
Sorry, this is an issue that I'm super passionate about.
They were awful for a million other reasons anyways though. Blah!

At first I was kind of side eying the fact that you threw their stuff out the window. Now? You're my hero. Seriously. You are AWESOME. You don't want their hate around your kids.

Me too! Wow. I cannot get over the disgusting behavior of your IL's. Good for you for making sure LO's were out of the house and for getting rid of the awfulness that has been invading. I'm sorry your very good friend was hurt.

WOW. I just spent 10 minutes of my day reading this thread, but it was totally worth it! I'm so glad you had the courage to stand up to them like that. What awful people. And you must update with DH's reaction. I can imagine he's stuck between a rock and a hard place, but hopefully he realizes that they went too far.
On our way to 3 under 4!

Seriously.
That is so awesome, Stacy! We need details whenever you have a minute.
Good for you!!

I would have lost it, too. That is ridiculous! Especially in front of your daughter. Unacceptable.
I have a great mental image of you chucking their stuff out of the second story window into the snow. You are my new hero.

Holy frijole your FIL and his GF have a lot of nerve. SO many levels of craziness. It's almost like they were trying to provoke you.
What is your DH going to say to them??
Nope they didn't bang on the door.
I think they knew better at that point.
I honestly do not know what DH is going to say- and I really don't care.
