To occasionally be in pyjamas when in laws come over?

Dhs parents ring us every Saturday and Sunday morning to see what we're up to. They always want to come over early. They often turn up earlier than arranged. They ring at 8am.

I got fed up of always worrying about being ready and having the house tidy (it's not a shithole just lived in). I was fed up of feeling harassed every weekend to be honest too, so I decided they'll have to take me as they find me. It's the weekend and I want to do things at my leisure.

On a couple of occasions I've still been in pyjamas when they arrived and mil has commented negatively or laughed at me.

If I've been upstairs showing and getting dressed mil wanders upstairs to find me.

Aibu to do as I please in my own home?

Blimey this awful. You have a DH problem . He needs to tell them not to call before 10 am and not to come over before you have said you are ready for them.
Also you need to start being busy . Park around the corner and don’t answer the door if they turn up anyway.
Once a weekend is ample .
