Random Rants
Why is it, that almost every time I take my daughter to the grocery store, someone comments on what a sweet little boy I have? Now even though I think she couldn't possibly look more like a precious baby girl, I do understand that sometimes with babies it's hard to tell. What I don't understand, is why they think that when she is always dressed in pinks or purples. A lot of times, they will ask me "How old is he?" so I reply, "SHE is nine months" and then they still say something along the lines her being an adorable little boy. I just don't get it.

People need to just say "Oh Adorable" or "Oh Cute" LOL. Wait until mommy dearest makes the first move and you can drag the answer outta her :) or daddy dearest for that matter. I know what you mean and many times I've made that mistake. I don't think it's intentional however
ReplyDeleteThom~I shouldn't let it bother me as much as it does but I really get irritated when I politely correct them and they still call her a boy!
ReplyDeleteI get the same exact thing with Seth, except they think he is a girl. I know he's a pretty boy, but I dress him in blues and greens and just plain boy outfits and they still call him a girl! He does have longer hair, so maybe that's why they get confused, but I just can't bring myself to get his hair cut. Maybe some day people will just learn to say what a cute baby instead of what sex they think they are.
ReplyDeleteBecca~Whenever I see a baby, I check out the outfit before I comment. I know I've only seen pics of Seth but I definitely think he looks like a little boy :)
