I have a pretty cool MIL. Infact, my FIL is pretty cool too

Although I think my MIL is kind of scared I'm 'taking' her baby away from her, so we try to go out to their house regularly, and kinda 'prove' to her that I'm not stealing her boy! Lol.

We're off to the IL's to cook dinner for my FIL tonight... MIL is in Holland... FIL is a typical Dutch Farmer and can't cook to save himself, and he's been going to everyones house to eat so far lol...]]> Mon, 12 Jul 2010 15:44:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34628&PID=1095830&title=my-mil-is-great#1095830 <![CDATA[My MIL is great! : yep i think my MIL is great! never...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34628&PID=1095784&title=my-mil-is-great#1095784 Author: heaf3

I don't have a MIL becasue she is dead, but I wish I did, especially now my own mother lives so far away.
I can see why my own mother is a PITA. however seeing hte disgusting way my sisters in laws have treated her over the years for nothing really, makes me feel sad. Its always their families first and mum and dad missed out on everything, christmases, birthdays, new babies etc. i know you often just want YOUR mum, but it really hurt me to see how much that bnehaviour hurt my mum. I hope I am a great MIL but I know it will have to be a pretty darn special woman to look after my wee man the way I do! lol ]]> Sun, 11 Jul 2010 16:50:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34628&PID=1094730&title=my-mil-is-great#1094730 <![CDATA[My MIL is great! : My MIL is awesome too.

I know there's a lot of griping about MILs, so I just thought I'd say (for the sake of any MILs reading this) that mine is great!

She is so supportive of what we are doing with DS, offers advice ion the nicest possible way and doesn't mind if it is rejected, always tells me what a good job I am doing (even when I think I'm not), and helps out whenever she can. She loves DS to bits and never compares him to our nieces and nephews. She loves getting him stuff but always asks first what we need, and she gets on with my parents too!

I would offer to lend her out, but I'm afraid I might not get her back

So thanks MIL!! ]]> Sat, 10 Jul 2010 20:22:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34628&PID=1094200&title=my-mil-is-great#1094200
