so irritated with the BM and her mother

OK so quick background summary- the BM has been in and out of my SS life since he was born for men and drugs and is now pregnant so she is back living with her mother. My DH's mother and BM's mother have custody but he lives with us and they rarely take Him on their designated weekends and when they do its 'we will call you when we want you to bring him' and 'we will call you when we want you to come get him' making us wait by the phone cause we can't do anything in case she calls okay.... Now the issue...

It is their weekend to have him however they have a wedding to attend on Saturday (tonight) and so the plan was, he come overnight on Friday and we will pick him up Saturday afternoon however the BM called on Friday and said that cousins were coming over and it might be better if he stayed home (he couldn't act crazy cause he got his tonsils removed and was still recovering so in this case I believe they made the right choice) so he was going over their on Saturday for a couple hours.. No big deal, so I thought I would organise a sleepover with the girl I babysit on Saturdays and me SS and the friend went and got our night snacks and so on and I went to drop him off at BM's grandmothers (where BM is staying)... I get there and she informs me that her mother is bringing over clothes and might take him after all for the night.... Like what the hell!!!!! They always change plans on us and now I might not have him tonight but I'll be babysitting all night now?? I rarely want to go out of my way for my SS so when I do I get so proud that I'm making progress to be in his life, and shit like this ticks me off.. I want to say no you said.... And pick him up but its their weekend and there is nothing we can do about it!!!!! Grrrr... So I offered them next weekend (which is not their weekend) as a gesture to not take him tonight and have him for a whole weekend which they missed out on this weekend, logically that's the better choice but to piss me off I bet they will keep him tonight... Oh and what am I doing right now???? Waiting for the damn call of what in the world is going on.. Grrrr would this annoy you too???
