Son's FIRST bday, and my MIL misses it.. the..(2 pics of his bday included after my rant) Update..

[katiebugg319]

So.. my son's Bday was the 19th, we had it all planned out that my mom would come down in the afternoon and on the 20th we'd celebrate his bday, my MIL lives literally 2 minutes away.

So every thing is fine and dandy, we wake up to my DF's dad calling(on the 20th), he said "DO YOU NOT HAVE A BRAIN?! REALLY?" and he hangs up.. so after getting conor up and all that, he goes over to his parents house, his mom's playing the "victim" so to say, saying that "You guys NEVER listen to my advice you only ever listen to Katie and her mom!"  -and- "Katie is always making the decisions, she never lets you have a say and you just sit and let her! you could have brought conor over on his birthday for 2 minutes!"-my DF then said "no, we compromise, WE make decisions you don't see that, you don't live with us YOU don't KNOW, and bring him over? we bring him over all the time, we didn't do ANYTHING special the DAY of his Birthday, we ran around trying to get his party all set and ready!" so shit hit the fan and she and her hubby said "Well i don't like the way he shoves cheerios in his mouth, like he's starving, and why did YOU guys take his paci away?!" DF then said "are you insinuating we don't feed him enough? yes when you try to take his cheerios he does shove them in his mouth real fast! and WE didn't take his paci, HE stopped using it hat do you want us to do? FORCE him to use it?!"

That's right.. pissy about cheerios and a paci.. SHIT he stopped using his paci at 6 months, and NOW at a YEAR old.. They are accusing us of "paci snatching".. even if we did WTF he's fine. we didn't but so what if we would have?!

so DF said "fine you want to be this way don't come. it's up to you but if you come you better leave this shit behind, this is CONORS DAY not yours. if you're going to come and start drama don't come."

That freaking bitch.. she REALLY missed his 1st Bday.. REALLY?!.. my gosh.. WTF..

anyhow here are a few pics from his bday we had fun without her but it's the fact of the matter >.<

EDIT:: just to add some of her 'advice'--i expressed BM because my DS wouldn't latch on and ETC, at 3months before it all dried out she suggested i give him whole milk "we fed michael whole milk, he was such a fussy baby" (really? ya think)

"around a year i gave mike straight apple juice.. i think at one point he had some soda in a bottle too"...hell no we aren't taking your advice! she's nuts! (micheal is my DF BTW)

(By the way we obviously think she's jealous of my mom.. but ya know.. i don't give a rats ass, this woman lives 2 minutes away my mom lives 2 HOURS away.)

UPDATE:: we've been driving her car because the NEW .. BRAND NEW carseat fit in her car, and that car is safer. today she called wanting her car back, said she didn't care and he was old enough to be forward faing "so get over it" she justified missing his first bday because "my feelings were hurt and it's not like he'll remember his 1st bday anyhow"

THAT MF BITCH GEESH! she pisses me off. so FINE she can sit and wallow in her little pity pool, and WE as conors PARENTS will continue to NOT CARE. ugh that bitch!

AWWW what a little cutie! That sucks about your mil..I can kinda relate. Mine sucks too. About two weeks before my son was born she faked a suicide attempt to get the attention of her married boyfriend. It worked and now they are married and their families ripped to shreds in the process, but they act like them being together is this huge fairy tale because they were high school sweethearts. When my son turned one she showed up for 30 minutes. Now with my daughter they both try to act like these loving and doting grandparents. Makes me sick. They've done much more that I won't get into but I will NEVER have my family and dh's family together. (dh feels the same) I do have sis in law that is awesome though.

I'm sorry she acted like she was the 1yr old.  I really lucked out with mine.  The worst thing she did was not bring the kids home at a decent time one mothers day when I had to work all day.  Other than that she was great, even sided with me when my dh and I were having problems.  She's been gone 4 1/2 yrs now and I miss her.

that would piss me off to my mother in law use to be a HUGE bitch like a week before i had her 2nd grandkid first granddaughter my hubby was talking to her on the phone he asked me a question i answered it and then i had stated it wrong so i corrected myself so he could tell her about the baby and she says do you want me to tell her to shut up for you it pissed me off so bad she did shit like that all the time!! so when i went into labor i was furious with her he called her telling her and she wanted to come i said NO i don't want her near me so my DH told her i didn't want her in the room so she waited in the waiting room while his sister and brother came in and kept me company he spent time out there with her! after i had the baby she was gone he called her and told her she asked if she could come back to see the baby obviously she would have to come in the room so i agreed so my daughter could see her but UGH made me sick now she's as nice as can be and we get along lol

 Seriously, dont move an inch for that woman!  Sounds like shes jealous of YOU taking her son away.  IDK  Bringing up stuff she knows nothing about shows shes grasping at straws.  Just let it roll off your shoulders.

[mcsmom1]

What an immature bitch!

Why did you have to bring your child over on HIS birthday?  If she wanted to see him so desperately she could have come to your house! 

Good luck dealing with her in the future, you're going to need it.

Awww, he's adorable! Happy Birthday little man!  As for the MIL, she'll regret missing such a special day.

[Bopples]

Wow she sounds plesant lol. Sorry you have to deal with her and her crap. I wish for your sake that is was the other way around and your mom lived 2 minutes away and MIL lived the 2 hours away. But your son is ADORABLE and it looks like he had a great time without her. Reading all these stories makes me so thankful for my future MIL, she is wonderful now, I just hope that doesn't change after the wedding. Don't let that woman get to you, and honestly, if she's going to act that way, I wouldn't bring your little one over to her anymore, if she wants to see him I'd make her come to us. Good luck & sorry she is so rude

[FuTureMrsPaRRy]

what a cute pie!! Oh and he looks half starved and deprived..WHATEVER. I think its best she didnt come, she sounds manipulating and would of probably ruined the day anyway!! He is soo cute, I just want to pinch his cheecks!!lol

Quoting FDNYwife:

that as well. she's just being a bitch and i don't get it. ugh how can you miss your grandsons 1st bday over jealousy.. but yes i do think she's jealous, it's so childish! UGH! i'm tryin to let it go, i've let a lot of things go with her.. this is just like a WTF moment. but DF said "no from now on SHE can come to us, i'm not catering to her shit" i mean.. i feel bad because it's his mom but damnit it feels good to know he is standing up for us as a family.
