Nelle - I don't see my MIL very often as they live about 40mins away, so by the time I see her next I guess it just seems too long ago IYKWIM? She is treating Xander like he is her own kid, totally ignoring our wishes. She even tried to feed him chocolate at the Xmas do! I'm just about ready to choke her.

Shell - Sounds like you and I are having very similar issues! I hope that it resolves very soon for you. My MIL seems to think that she knows best when it comes to feeding kids... yet she is very overweight herself (dietary indescretions, not medical). I know that sounds rude, but she really needs to butt out as I plan on raising my child as healthily as possible.

Caddie - How are you doing today?

Jodi - So what is young Nina up to? I hope you are coping with this latest phase ok.
