[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it sounds like you have great in-laws.  I wish I had that kind of help!  Here's what I would do:

Set up a couple projects that you need completed for them to work on.  If you own a home, surely there's something you've been meaning to do but just haven't gotten to.  Or create something - give her a linen closet to organize or ask her to make some dishes to freeze.  Ask him to put together a piece of furniture or fix something in the garage, etc.

And if there's something in the fridge you don't want touched, then label it so MIL knows to leave it alone.

[b]The not wanting her to enter your bedroom thing is sort of weird to me.  This woman is in your home caring for your child.[/quote][/b]

Seriously? OP knows this woman is in her home, caring for her child. So the woman should be caring for child, not touching OP's made bed and going through her closets. I would *never* enter an adult's bedroom without their express knowledge. Boundaries![/quote]

She CHANGED THEIR FREAKING SHEETS, didn't rifle through the closet and damage stuff.  Good lord, you people have no souls.[/quote]

Did you not read the original post? The MIL *did go through their closets* and cleaned and reorganized stuff unnecessarily. MIL sounds snoopy and controlling. [/quote]
