[quote=Anonymous]I feel your pain OP. I love my mom to pieces but she is in her upper 70s and is more hassle than the baby in some ways. AT the end of the day they just want to be around the baby and cuddle, that's it. Now that you have realized her limitations I would advise identifying 1 task she can actually do and ask her to step up and do it and let the rest of the stuff slide. That way she is at least helping a little but still getting in all the cuddle time she wants. Speak up without being rude. I would suggest urging her to get up in time to take your older kid to school maybe? When my mom is here I wake her up just like I would a kid. Or whatever task you think she can actually do....[/quote]
