After reading your most recent posts, it sounds to me like the MIL is deliberately sabotaging your efforts. You've really got to wonder what's going on there. I think NC or minimal contact would give you all a break. Prepare for some crazy when she realises she doesn't have her audience.
I think you're doing a great job in the face of difficulties and sabotage and I'm sure your SD will appreciate it as she gets older.
