[quote=Anonymous]Add activities! Have DH take his mom out for a drive, out for lunch, even a sightseeing tour. Have things that YOU have to do-take your nursing baby out and about with you (then just drive away for a few hours, go to a new playground and sit) and have MIL babysit the others. Could you embark on an at home project while MIL is visiting and be over the up grateful that she can watch your kids while you do X in another room? I’m thinking; pulling out your winter clothes or filling a bag with donations that you’ll immediately drive to a thrift store? Or, even laundry - get in all done. Limit your one on one time with MIL. Do something engaging as a family. A walk around the neighborhood? Have MIL play a board game or bake cookies with older kids? [/quote]
