I'd rather someone asked than assume.

I get that if I put DD in green or something. But doesn't the pink blanket on her or the pink paci give it away? Some people I swear.

According to my grandmother brown isn't a baby color in general and she complained to my mother that I dressed my son in brown. *eye roll*

I've seen plenty of girl clothes in brown.

I was wearing DD in the store on Tuesday and the only thing you could see was her PINK socks and people still asked me boy or girl. Really??

 Ha.. DD is dressed in all baby blue today. Granted, it does have white polka dots and a pink heart on her onesie... but it is blue.

I dressed Dillon in a peachy Peter Rabbit outfit and he was mistaken for a girl ALL day. LOL

One of our fav outfits for DD is a brown/cream stripe with monkeys. I don't mind that people don't know her gender, but I was amazed when someone argued that it was "boy clothes." Come on, brown is the definition of neutral!

I also realized one day when DD was wearing a plain blue onesie that "Maeve" sounds like "Dave" - adding to the confusion! Now I make sure to use SHE/HER pronouns.

LOL, I used to feel bad when people mistook her gender, like I wasn't doing something right, until someone kept refering her as a boy when she was wearing a ruffly and flowery outfit and wrapped in a pink blanket! Some people just aren't paying attention.

Ugh I hate that. I was in Target the other day and a guy with a little GIRL asked if DD was a boy/girl. Um hello pink poka dot carseat, bow in hair, pink clothes, you freaking tell me you idiot
