So, we all know how are dh's are all like.. LOVE my kids like your own, if you had kids I would totally be understanding.. I would love them unconditionally yada yada yada!!

Well. I have a nephew who is 2 yrs old. He is adorable and I love him.. I occassionally help out my sister by watching my nephew.. Today was one of those days.. He came here w/his mom at 1pm, we put him down for a nap and he was fast asleep by 1:15pm.. While he was sleeping.. dh took the skids to the park, out for ice cream (we all reward kids for being rude right??? see earlier blog for reference on that sarcastic remark). They came back at about 3:30pm and he set them up w/a movie.. Nephew was still sleeping. At 4:15pm I decided to go get him, as I wanted him to be able to sleep for sister tonight. I bring him down and now my baby is crying and stuff (had a burp he wasnt giving up) so now dh is helping w/the baby, while I change nephew and give him juice and a snack..

Here is where I got mad.. My nephew was picked up at 5:15pm.. he was here and awak for a total of 1 hr. my dh showed more annimosity in that 1 freakin hour than I have dared to show toward skids in the 6 F N years that I have known them. I quickly told him at about 4:45pm that he needed to quit w/the annimosity toward a 2 yr old that he doesnt see that often.. that he isnt living here EOW, he isnt intentionally RUDE, and HE FREAKIN LISTENS when you ask him to do something.. I think his mere presence annoys dh.. and I dont know why, other than he is NOT his kid! SO, I said, if you want me to start treating SKIDS that way.. keep it up!! Otherwise knock the crap off!!!

I am so freakin mad. My fav is all the times he said to me.. if the shoe was on the other foot.. yada yada yada!!

I also keep my sister's kids. I use to spend more time with the 2 oldest when I was single - than their own parents. Whenever my sis kids want to come over - 7, 3 & 1 - he gets an attitude. He treats me like crap & them usually. If I need help w/ changing a diaper or making dinner - he acts like it is not his problem.
However - do we ever act that way with his kids? No - we love them and treat them like gold. After I reminded him of how important my sis kids were - and how I have always treated ss as if they are my own - even better than their own mom - he finally got the picture. He still pouts though -so I totally understand - It must be a man thing... (sorry for those of you are are SD)

WATCH MY NEPHEW, AGE 2, WHILE MY SISTER WORKED. LONG STORY SHORT, MY SISTER IS NOT THE IDEAL MOTHER FIGURE, SO MY POOR NEPHEW HAD SOME INSECURITIES. HE WAS VERY CLINGY TO ME. HE IS HALF SPANISH SO MY BF WOULD CALL HIM 'BROWN" AND MAKE FUN OF HIM FOR CRYING ABOUT HIS MOM LEAVING OR IF HE DIDNT WANT TO WRESTLE WITH MY BF AS MY BD2 WOULD. CALLING HIM A SISSY AND TELLING HIM THAT HE NEEDS TO MAN UP. THIS CHILD IS SO ADVANCED MENTALLY AND LISTENS SO GOOD, SO WHAT IF HE CRIES ALOT? HIS DADDY IS GONE AND HIS MOMMY DOESNT WANT HIM SO SHE SHOVES HIM AT WHOEVER WILL TAKE HIM.

WHATS FUNNY IS THAT SD11 IS HALF SPANISH, AND ONCE I CALLED HER A SPIC UNDER MY BREATH BY BF HEARD ME AND HE FLIPPED OUT ON ME. SD11'S MOMMY DOESNT WANT HER AND BF FEELS SOOOOO BAD FOR HER. SD11 HAS HAD MANY MANY ISSUES AND STILL DOES DUE TO BEING TAKEN AWAY AT AGE 4 AND HAS ISSUES WITH THE DARK ECT. BUT HE MAKES MY NEPHEW FEEL LIKE SHIT....WHY? BECAUSE HE WAS A BOY AND CRIED ALOT? CAUSE HE DIDNT WANT TO WRESTLE? HE WATCHED HIS DADDY BEAT ON HIS MOMMY FRO CHRIST SAKE!!! I TOLD HIM THAT WASNT HIS SON TO MAN UP AND HE, JUST LIKE SD11, NEEDS PEOPLE HE CAN TRUST AND FEEL SAFE WITH.

SO I DONT WATCH MY NEPHEW ANYMORE.

My H does the same crap. I often had my nephews and niece overnight. My H made them feel so uncomfortable, for many reasons, that they don't want to come overnight anymore when he is home. But I told them, he lives here, they want me to call when he leaves! Of course, they don't no what they are really asking, there just 8 years old.

I'm glad that you at least said something to him. He should feel like an a$$ for acting that way. One hour....give me a break!! I'm know your nephew is better behaved than skids and he is only two. I'm sure that is embarrasing to DH. I would just ignore him and give nephew extra attention next time he is there just to annoy DH.

Never thought of it that way!! that he is better behaved than the skids, and he is embarrassed about that!
