IL fails of the weekend

MrsNiner · June 2011

1) MIL wanted to see C push himself up on his elbows while on his tummy (to them, this is like watching a baby fly). So she puts him on the hard kitchen table. He screams obviously.

2) FIL grilled out yesterday while we were over. We sat down at the table to eat and he started cutting up his steak into tiny bits and mashing some potato up. H asked him what he was doing. His response was, "Well I'm getting C's dinner ready for him. He is eating that cereal stuff now, so it's okay for him to have this!".

Lol! You'd think FIL would have taken a clue from the parents (who I presume were NOT "getting his dinner ready for him" that maybe C wasn't getting any steak and potatoes.

I'm sure that's exactly what my face looked like when he said he was cutting it up for C.

And they wonder why I have not yet left them alone with my child... Confused

No sh!t. These are the same people who have almost dropped him twice because they were around him when they had been drinking.

I actually feel bad that I just typed that. They have been trying really hard recently to be more involved and less annoying.

Niiiiiiiice.

My FIL asked yesterday why I hadn't mashed any potatoes up for DS. And SIL tried to feed him some of the filling from a lemon tart. Which he promptly spit out and made a face akin to "WTF are you thinking trick!?"

My mom gave DD some whipped cream and was halfway to her mouth with a strawberry before I walked in the room. So unlike her!

It's like having a grandchild made them lose their minds.

My inlaws now fear me. It's tough love, but it's the only way I can trust they won't do anything stupid with my kids. Because they have tried it all before.
