Controlling Mom-In-Law

I'm going to keep this short, because I could talk about it all day, but basically, my husband and I came into hard times almost a year ago, so we moved into his mother's house. His mother, I hate to say, is overbearing and very controlling. She has had me on edge quite a few times this year, but what she said this morning almost made me snap.

My daughter just turned one about a month ago, and as many mothers know, this is that time when they get rebellious when it comes to their schedules, especially sleeping. Well since we moved in when she was only a few months old and there are a lot of people in and out of the house, she has never had a very good schedule to begin with. Last night she didn't go to sleep until almost 11. I know that's bad but it's normal for her right now. What is also NORMAL is for her to wake up around 8 in the morning. This morning, she woke up at 6:30am. So naturally, I tried to put her back to sleep. And naturally, she fought and screamed.

Now I thought, with it being Monday, everyone would be gone to school and work, but apparently it's a holiday, so everyone was complaining to my husband (even though they were actually supposed to be up to go somewhere anyway, but I digress). So I gave up putting her to sleep and let her watch cartoons. Eventually my mother-in-law came in to "apologize" saying that she knows that we are breaking her into a schedule, but we can't expect her to sleep for even 8 hours (even though, and I told her this, she NORMALLY sleep 9-10 hours a night). She also said that since her husband is about to get some days off, my daughter can't be crying all night and day. I try my hardest not to be rude to her because she's letting us live here cheaply, but in my head I was thinking :But she's a freaking BABY!!!!! That's what babies do! You've raised 5 kids and you don't remember that they cry until they can really talk?! And even then they still cry!"

I just don't know what to. At the most we'll have enough money to move in two weeks, but we cold still be here for a while and we can't raise our daughter the way we want or the way she needs to be raised if there is always an extra governing force on us. And MIL is not very reasonable or negotiable, and even though she claims that I'm raising my child well, she's making it much harder than it needs to be.
