So, I know that my shower is next week - I have to fly in for it.. Anyway, my mom was handling the RSVP's. OVer 20 people on FMIL's list have not even had the courtesy to respond.
Then FMIL calls my mom, and says XXX is coming and so is YYY. My mom says YYY isnt even invited!?!? FMIL says, well XXX and YYY always go everywhere together! W T F?
Then.. it gets better. We are having an adult reception - NO KIDS. FH's cousins are coming from FL, and are planning on bringing their 8 and 2 yr old children. FMIL said this will be ok, since they are out of state, and 'she' doesnt want to cause any problems..
Well, I have family too that has small children, and I am not flexible on allowing kids to come to our wedding. IF that was the case, I would be inviting people and their kids.....
Who the h e l l is she to make determinations about our guest list. She is gonna get an earful this weekend.. I really cant stand people who act like this, and that FMIL thinks it's ok to invite people that WERE not invited.

Re: FMIL rant.. getting ready to kill her.
Gotta love FMILs!!! I totally hear you!!! About the kids tell her NO and suggest they look into having a second cousin or family friend that can babysit the kids. Thats what we're doing. If there is no fam or friends tell her to check w/her local church and see if anyone from the community offers babysitting services -if their church going people they should be trustworthy for one night to babysit. Good luck!!!
