Sould I be annoyed...

So my MIL has not yet given us a wedding gift!
now the wedding was paid for ENTIRELY by my parents! Minus the Photographer and Videographer which DH and I paid for...

so the day after our wedding DH and I opened all the envelopes and nothing from his mom, DH said his mom said she will give it to us later...ok fine, alot of people either gave us their envelope before or after the wedding so with all the confusion of that day didnt want it to get lost or anything..fine...
we got back from our honeymoon and on our door was a bag with two pictures frames welcoming us back and a note from his mom saying 'here is a little something before the better one'

24 days we have been married, just curious when she planned on giving us our wedding gift? not to sound greedy but umm i was told on serveral occasions 'it was coming' well where is it?

and now its time for her to pick out pictures for her album that we are paying for, meanwhile we didnt get his father an album (oh his parents are divorced by the way) because the package we got only came with two parent albums and everyone was like the fathers really dont care about having an album...so they threw in extra printed pictures to give him...but now he gave us a gift! and she didnt! so i almost feel the father should get the album!!!!!

i will prob just look like a spoiled brat when she finally does give us our gift...but i kinda would just like it before our 1 year anniversary! especially cuz my BIL is getting married Oct 2 and i was just curious if they would get their gift before us!

Maybe she has something invested in a time account and it hasn't matured yet. If it were me, I would have told my son what the gift was, so you don't sit there wondering if and when you were getting the gift.

I would say, give it a little more time before saying anything. Hopefully, you should get it before your bil's wedding. I can't imagine her giving you the frames and mentioning the other gift if she wasn't planning on giving you something.

Is she able to give you a gift or is she struggling financially. If she has the means, I have to say, I would be annoyed. There's really nothing you can do, but it would bother me.

Hmmm, that is a tough one. On the one hand you don't want to sound greedy and ask for a gift, but on the other hand...WHERE THE HECK IS IT??? Like she said she was giving you a gift...but when??? I'd be annoyed too, but honestly, what can you do???
