Hey guys, thanks for all the advice. The new issue is... I can't get my wife to see any advantage in the situation. She just thinks that it is not her house, and there is some alternative motive by my parents. I've spoken with them, and they do not have anything like that, they are just looking out for their grandkids.

It's a control issue for her. Not that she's trying to be controlling, but that she thinks your folks are impinging on her/your territory, somehow.
It also sounds like you're in the middle on this one. You're talking to your parents, and your wife is talking to you, but your wife isn't talking to your parents. That needs to happen if you need to her sign off. And you do. If hard dollar savings don't do it for her, if she only sees the negatives, then there's another negative there for her that you're going to have to find out about and deal with. Do they all get along together well?
