Realized there were no pictures of your kids anywhere? How bad would that be? What if you had sent many many many pics with frame included and still...they were not up? Would you say something?

Probably not. Some people are just that way. We sent my MIL tons of pictures and when we went to visit, she pulled out a box that they were in. For whatever reason, she doesn't display any pictures. In her case, I guess it could be because she has 4 kids, 9 grandkids, and even a couple of great-grandkids. Of course, at the time, she didn't, but I figured it just wasn't worth the effort. Still tickles me that every once in a while she complains that I don't send her pictures very often.

I don't know what to tell you. I'd probably steam over it silently as opposed to starting something.

Are there other pictures up? If my kids where the only grandkids not up I'd just ask about it...if there were none I'd assume they didn't like to put up pictures. I'd probably stop sending them so many then though.

I would B*tch about it to my friends at BBU and whoever would listen. But I wouldn't say anything to them. I have no back bone when it comes to family.

I should add that this is my dad and step mom. There are tons of pictures of her grandkids but none of my kids or my brothers kids. My brother went to visit in October and there was one really old pics of the 3 oldest grandkids (there are 6 total that are my dad's). My brother came home and
b*tched at me cause I never send my dad pics. Well since I have had kids I have sent a Christmas pic every year including frame as well as other times. My brother just got back from a visit and there were a few hastily put out pics of his kids and they were ones they had just sent. I do not know if I will have to back bone to say anything. I am not sure it is worth it and I really do not want it to ruin the visit. Although I will be steaming the entire time.

I really do not like my stepmom at all. When I told my dad I would be visiting he said Pat will be so excited and I thought to my self yeah right...

In the case, I may just comment on how adorable the other grandkids are and innocently ask if he'd received the pictures you sent. Would at least be interesting to hear his excuse as to where they are.

At least he'll know that you noticed and maybe feel bad?

I would ask. I would make a comment that was kind of joking... kind of serious. even though I'd be severly annoyed!!
