How many of you included stepchildren in Wedding?

Alright...we can't come to an agreement on this...and I won't set a date anyway until we move out of the crazy house.

My reasons for not wanting children in the wedding or ANY children at the reception -

1. I think receptions are for adults...it's a night for couples and single people to get out, mingle, laugh, drink, dance, and have a blast to celebrate a marriage. My parents used weddings as their escape and a night for "them" when we were little. We NEVER attended weddings with them.

I am devising an evil plan...anyone want to help?

So....I avoid BM at all costs. She doesn't appreciate anything I do for HER children...maybe it's because I parent them better than she does...anyway...I have decided that every weekend we send them home I will send them home with something annoying and messy...here are my ideas so far...

1. Microphones (the girls are already naturally and severely LOUD).

2. Paint.

3. SAND.

4. Maybe a project involving water.

5. Noisemakers.

6. Teaching them horrible annoying songs.

Any other suggestions?

So he goes for a review...they raise his CS...and he receives a packet in the mail today from HER new attorney...sueing him for more money...and before we received the mail this morning...he called out to ask her if she could meet us half way this morning (we drive to get them every weekend and take them home every weekend) She throws a huge fit and says absolutely not? This is the first time in years we have asked her to do this. What an ignorant you know what...So...after getting the packet in the mail...he is going to a lawyer this week and we are praying he will take payments.

Finding ways to keep busy...

So I have two weeks of school left - which will get rid of some stress. And I am starting a CAREER soon - no more part-time jobs. My wonderful parents sat me down and basically told me they don't know where their daughter went. They want me to get out of that house as well as FH. They told me FMIL is creating a very unhealthy enviroment for me and I am not good at handling stress - it physcially takes a toll on me - like I will lose 20 pounds and then gain 30 back...if anyone looks at me the wrong way - I burst into tears. my anxiety is so bad I want to hide in a corner.

Just blowing off some steam...

FSD turned 8 years old this weekend...holy cow. Although the birthday party was a success of course FMIL attempted to put a damper on things by complaining about the food. Complaining that "we" did not find HER a pillowpet to give to HER grand-daughter...apparently she couldn't go out and scour every store herself to find out that they were sold out EVERYWHERE - lazya$$...complained that I made "her" grandchild's cake the Wrong color? Which by the way - my fsd LOVED her bday cake!

Too nice...somethings up.

So after five days of crazy BM NOT allowing the fsd's to speak to FH and us recording it - and the fact that of course she let them speak to evil FMIL - she finally let them return his call on Friday. And...we picked them up Saturday A.M. with no issues...and she was as nice as could be...something HAS to be up. Who calls one week and threatens we cant see them for months?
