[quote=Anonymous]Meanwhile, the economy is tanking, thousands of veterans families are learning to adjust to life without parent X, the election had become a strange farse (honestly, from the outside it looks like lame reality TV), the Middle-East is waiting to implode, Europe is on the brink of potential crisis and your SIL annoyed you.  I'm just devestated for you.

I think there's a lesson here that you might want to share with your DC: if you don't want others to access/publish/change/use/view/change personal information then don't put it out there. And not withstanding the fact that your SIL might be a festering idiot, might it just be that she wants to be part of the huge fuss of having a first grandchild.  Might she have just thought it was a nice thing to do?

What I've learned about family is: unless it's a deal breaker, don't sweat the small stuff; sometimes the right (but not easy) thing to do is to be kind when you could justifyingly (not sure if that's a word) be snotty; you might think everyone/someone else is quite wrong.  Really??  Are you always right?; it's a baby album - not soemone trying to burn your house down.

I suggest perspective OP.  Tell her it's lovely that she's taking such an interest in your baby.  Be nice.  It's extrodinary the extent to which one's effort to be nice to people comes back in kind.
