Also, Dizzy (or anyone), please post some comebacks if you see this!
This would be sooooo mean and I would never ever say it, but it would be flippin funny if you said in a really sweet voice, "Awww she must take after her aunt!"

oh, I love that! you crack me up! you could say that or shrug your shoulders and say "yeah, that runs in your family, doesn't it?"
not that I think you should say anything - but it's fun to daydream, isn't it?

Hehe--love the comebacks, jess and detroit (although SIL is very fit now, she used to be fat so it would really get under her skin)! It makes me feel better just to think about saying them. JMR--thanks for the sweet compliment, and thanks again everyone for your support! You guys are awesome!
your SIL and mine would get along. I think she lives for making underhanded comments to me. I do ignore her for the most part, but I don't think it really helps, though she's really volatile and it's probably a lot better than confronting her.
I try to remember that people who act that way have deep insecurities, and I try to feel sorry for her rather than hate her. You and your family are adorable, and she is probably just jealous.

You know, I'll bet this is why she is doing it. People probably made fun of her when she was younger, so she's trying to make herself feel better by doing it to your daughter.
