Step-MIL posted a pictures of new nephew to dh's Facebook wall with the caption...."Mr. Nephew, the greatest thing to happen in 2012". Cute right...excited grandma? Except for the fact that our bs-8months was also born in 2012.

It would be one thing to post that on her own wall, or o SILs wall.....but posting it on dh's wall was just a slap on the face. He was enraged but decided to just delete the post rather than start some juvenile crap on FB that makes him look petty. Smart move.

I decided to take it one step further and block her from my page. We aren't friends in real life so why should we be friends on FB?. If I can't see her passive aggressive crap, then I can't be bothered by it.

Dh thinks blocking her was petty and I am above that. Was blocking her an overreacting?

If blocking her removes a stress from your life then do it. Why is it petty to not want to see someone's crap on fb?

^^^^^^^^^Agreed^^^^^^^^^^
Life is too short. If blocking her makes you feel better, do it. You don't need to be bothered with someone's nonsense if you don't want to.

Why does your DH think that was petty?

I am with you. I don't need the drama and will block or unfriend anyone I feel like as it is my FB page.

This is why MIL and SD both do not know I have a fb page. Its under a weird name. I don't think it was petty at all.

I think he's afraid of the drama and bull crap when she realizes that I blocked her.....and how silly and petty it will sound to others when mil runs her mouth.

He asked me what he was supposed to say when she asks about it.....I told him to tell her I got tired of her cuntish way (OK, that part was a bit petty,lol)

Why would you want to be friends with her? I don't think it's an over-reaction! It's your page, you decide who to be friends with.

The other part of it that bothers me is that she has taken BS's nickname. We call the baby Mr.Bioson. No one else in the family is refered to like that...just a cute little nickname we started using that everyone picked up on and calls him too. And of coarse she has to steal it and use it.

I would remind her about your BS' birth. Then block her.

Any possibility she may have forgotten?

No, it wasn't a slip. Totally intentional. She doesn't like me and constantly does stuff like this. She is also dhs stepmom and takes every opportunity to elevate her kids over him and push him to the sidelines.

I totally get that biograndson means more to her than step grandson.....buy posting it to dhs wall was just a dick move. She also includes the skids as her grandkids....just my two (also dh's)are excluded.
