my son, the girl...

so on our daily constitutional this morning, otherwise known as our morning walk, some older man steps out of the way to let us pass and then proceeds to tell me he needed to make way for the future president?! hmmm....that got me to thinking, i'm not sure i'd like jack to be the president. i think there's way too much pressure and let's be honest someone always hates you no matter how good of a job you do. i think i'd rather him be a ceo, or entreprenuer, ooo, how about a professional athlete. i guess he can be whatever he wants to be as long as it makes him happy:)

now onto my post title...we were on the swings today and another woman was there with her grandson. we were just making small talk...well finally she asked "how old she was?" and i said oh, no it's a boy and he's 6 1/2 months. so now i'm a bit perplexed b/c j couldn't have been dressed more like a boy today, and not only that, but it was the 5th time in the last 2 weeks that someone has mistaken him for a girl--WTH?! i don't really care, but i thinks its kind of odd considering he's in blue a majority of the time. does anyone else think he looks like a girl???

i took these this morning after breakfast...jack loves to roll around and hang out on our bed!

Jack,
You are so beautiful I guess it is understanding why you would be mistaken for a girl. You and mommy look as if you are having lots of fun these days. See you soon.
Love, Gram Taylor

I hear stories all of the time about people getting the gender wrong despite some obvious cues- makes mommies crazy. Don't sweat it... he's gorgeous but in the manliest way! :-)

Don't worry about it...Madison was referred to as a little boy for almost a year. I almost slapped a young woman who was wearing glasses (so obviously could see) who told me Maddie was an adorable little boy when she wearing all pink!

Hi Jack,
You are adorable, I can't believe how big you are getting. I agree that you are beautiful enough to be a girl, however the way your mom dresses you, I find it hard to believe that anyone could make that mistake.
I am sending you lots of hugs and kisses.
Love,
Grandma D
