Up until the day DH and I got married I called his rents Mr & Mrs (even though we are pretty close). Well, ive started calling them by the first names every once in a while (or avoid calling them anything at all). But they sent be a B-day card signed Mom & Dad. I dont want to call them Mom & Dad (my dad passed away when I was young and my mom is my BF). I didnt know what to write in the thank you note. I ended by writing: Hi . . . Thanks for the giftcard. But i thought they would think that was wierd. What do you call ILs? and how did you decide to call them that? Sorry so long.

Re: What do you call your ILs?
I call my FIL by his first name... I called my MIL mom a couple of times, but she recently passed away...

I love my IL's. They are amazing people. I'm so happy to call them Mom & Dad cause they truly are a second set of parents to me.

Re: What do you call your ILs?
i know you said calling them mom & dad would be weird but would you mind writing it? I sign everything mom and dad to his parents, but when i speak to them I usually just avoid any name...
