[quote=Anonymous]I found my ILs' visits a lot less annoying and a lot more helpful once our first was a little older and then we had a second kid. I echo suggestions both to a) push visits off from all of them a little longer so they are a bit more spaced out, because you do want time as a nuclear family after all b) lower expectations of how clean the house will be, etc, when they come and c) enlist them for help when they are there. Whoever's parents it isn't should get a hair cut or do some of there kind of errand/activity that is easier to do alone when their ILs are there. Also you and DW should go out on a date![/quote]
