[quote=Anonymous]op here. Thanks for the suggestions. I think she buys the things because they're cheap or on sale; she shops mainly at consignment stores and Marshalls/TJ Maxx etc. When we first got married she would randomly send us boxers of these treasures and I just didn't like it so I said something to her about it and she backed off and now only sends t stuff for birthday, Easter, and Christmas. But now with baby I can see her upping the frequency. Also, I sometimes wonder if this is a control issue for me. I feel like I should be the one dressing my kid and deciding what toys he should play with, not my MIL or other people. A few outfits wouldn't set me so far on the defense, but I have a feeling I won't need to buy the kid any clothes til he's 2 if we keep everything she gives to us.[/quote]
