[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Also, don't most people ask before buying furniture? [/b]My grandma wanted to buy the crib, so she asked us to send us the link for the one we wanted. My ILs wanted to buy the dresser, so asked us what we wanted - FIL & DH brainstormed and picked it out together. Someone offered to get the rocking chair, but we had already picked up at a 2nd hand one, so they decided to get something else. The people who didn't ask ahead of time were buying smaller items. OP, I think for the crib, you can let MIL know your plans - if she wants to buy the model you picked, that's great, if not, she can pick out something else to gift. It's not a big deal IMO. Saying we already have a crib picked out is not the same as turning away some one's sticker book as a birthday gift. I think it's fine, and what you would do if you had a normal relationship with MIL.[/quote] No, they don't. [/quote]
