CestLaVie , oh shit. I'm not sure why people don't get that it is a parent's right to protect their kids in any way they see fit. I know. I feel like we were more than fair. We had said she can see the kids anytime she comes into town (but agreed to ourselves that she would not be alone with them). We said if she wanted to be able to take them for a weekend, etc, then she needs to do some counselling. Poof

CestLaVie, oh fuck no times a million. MHs mom would just leave him alone from age 3. Once was with a boyfriend who beat MH and possibly did more but MH won't talk about it... so I'm with you on the fuck no being alone with my kid. His mom also recentlyish drove drunk with other grandkids in the car. No thank you, psycho bitch. PDQ

So my BF got his hair cut last week. I got mine colored and trimmed. DS got his cut, and we made a big deal about it leading up to and after it. DD is very upset she hasn't had hers done yet. She asks every night at bedtime and every morning as soon as she gets up if we can get her hair cut. Even on the way to daycare, she asks to just drop of DS so she can go get her hair cut. I feel awful telling her soon but my BF wants to be there for her first cut so we wont be able to get it done until next week. (I forgot, "dear diary" at the start of this brain dump lol)

Kids are at daycare. I'm home alone!!! I'm debating going to work or working from home. Decision decisions. Work pros: I have a computer to work at and free printing. Home pros: you can nap during break and eat whenever you want Oh, and get paid to poop.

flippinchica I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. I know how frustrating this stage can be. FWIW I had basically zero pregnancy symptoms with B, and as awesome as that sounds... it was really hard mentally. CestLaVie yeah fuck that. Given the situation I think you're being more than fair. Does she really think threatening to sue is going to help her see the kids more??

avocadotoast, exactly. I don't even think she could get a lawyer to take her case honestly. It's a waste of everyone's time, and destroys any sort of relationship she had with DH in the process. Logical.

I know not everybody has symptoms but given that I had pretty bad nausea for a long time with DS and none with my loss, it is really hard not to think the worst. Especially since I felt like crap last weekend.

CestLaVie I'd really love to see out the courts feel about her being around someone like that. I'm so sure they'd side with her *sarcasm*

CestLaVie, sorry for the MIL drama and that you are getting the brunt of the "blame". It sounds like you have gone above and beyond to safely include her in your kid's lives. And she thinks the courts will give her something more? Major eyeroll.

My church is having a yard sale on Saturday which I'm trying to use as motivation to spring clean today and get rid of stuff. So far I'm watching music videos and sipping coffee so I haven't gotten very far. Have I mentioned how much A loves the Shake it Off video?

For him, he was more upset to have to eat healthy food (lol). If he wants to buy cheaper shit and eat it, he is welcome. You know he won’t lol.
