Apparently I am rude
because I told SS8 that his pants were too small and to never wear them to our house again. It's like the 3rd time BM has put him in these pants and sent him with us and each time DH tells her that they are too small.

I decided to give SS8 'mommy time' this week
and at one point he asked me if I would talk to BM about spending more time (alone) with him.
But let's not get ahead of ourselves.

I always knew BM was a fraud
But I didn't know that she married one as well.
DH has been getting comments at work about the safety of his kids while at BM's house but didn't think anything of it until one of the guys at work told him the BM's hubby, "Chubby", got caught in insurance fraud and rolled on another guy that got busted in a big way, I guess he was the one in charge. The other guy was in the news so I went back and read the news article on the matter and it has Chubby's name in there and states the this other guy got him 'involved in insurance fraud' but charges against him have not been filed.

would it be wrong to involve skid in a little social 'experiment'
Sunday I let SS8 snuggle with me, I usually don't but I wanted to see what would happen. He LOVED it. In fact he ran and told MIL that we cuddled and I am sure he told BM after we switched custody.
IMO SS8 is too old to be snuggling but BM baby's him so much and he absolutely craves his mother's attention but rarely gets it. With EOW custody I am kind of a surrogate for him on our weeks. He just follows me around and pretty much ignores DH, who does try to snuggle him and spend time with him.
Gifting and Father's Day
So far BM hasn't gotten DH anything for Father's Day. It's in the CO though that they have to assist sKids in getting gifts for the other parent on some holidays.
Not that we are worried. She always buys him weird crap. But the reasons why interest me. We think BM is having money issues, when they first got divorced BM would buy him expensive things and DH would always get her something small but in recent year BM has started getting the hint and getting small things.

How do you step-mother a momma's boy?
I can't wait for SS8 to see the psychologist on the 24th, that kids has issues with an over attachment to his mother(IMO), depression, anxiety, attention and sleep. All of which drives me nuts because I am a SAHM and I have to deal with him. All in all he is a good kid, very sweet and loving.
SS8 and I have a good relationship for the most part. I am a lot harder on him than BM but I do more with him. But the bottom line is that he wants to be with her (and she doesn't want to be with him).

is it wrong to laugh at BM's mistakes?
Not like to her face or anything that would be rude and I just love that all of her problems are more or less of her own doing.

Do you ever feel like you showed up at the wrong time?
During drop offs or switches have you ever felt like you walked right into the middle of something you shouldn't have? how do you avoid getting sucking into BM's drama/life?

suggestions please on developing awareness and fine motor skills
in children 6 to 8 years of ages? Summer is almost hear and I have agreed to work with SS6 and SS8 over the next few months on developing age appropriate skills. As of right now SS6 is actually BETTER than SS8 because he gets help at school. But both of them seem to be in capable of doing mundane tasks, they either don't pay attention or give up too easily.
BM laughs at Ss8 sneaking stuff to school
The last time the skids were here we caught ss8 sneaking trading cards to and from school as well as sneaking them between house holds which we do not allow.
DH told BM about it and she just laughed. Ss8 has gotten in trouble at school many times for the cards and I heard teacher tell him no more trading cards at school they are a distraction to him.
