Seriously, I am so tired of saying
"she's a girl"
EVERY.SINGLE.DAY someone says "oh he's so cute" or
"he's so handsome" Are you Effing kidding me? SHE is wearing pink shoes and a barrett in her hair and most likely a pink shirt. One day I had 3 people comment on how cute my little boy was. It is getting really old.

Re: Seriously, I am so tired of saying
Maybe they think "he's" Emo??
Whatever, she's adorable!
people are morons. SHE's adorable.
people used to mistake DS for a girl all the time, and he would be in blue from head to toe. i'll never understand it.
sorry, this cracked me up. What did you say?!
I have the same problem, especially when she was younger. No matter how much pink she had on, people would ask if she was a boy.
When we were on holiday in the Dominican, everyone asked if she was a boy or girl. When I said "girl" they said "well why doesn't she have earrings?" I guess the little dresses and pink outfits don't mean anything if you don't have earrings : )
dh and i just looked at each other and smiled at them. he was wearing his "dad's team" baseball outfit that was navy blue.
I can relate. I don't get it a lot, but sometime ppl think DS is a boy. We were in the elevator at the mall the other day and some woman with kids said, "awww, she's looking at you."
My Mom always tells me that when my sister and I were babies (we are twins), we would be dresses in pink from head to toe with dresses and all that, and ppl would still think we were boys!
We get this too.... last week on our cruise she was wearing PINK LADYBUGS and got called a boy, she has also been called a boy with a nice giant BOW in her hair. Hello people! I get she has no hair...that does not equal a boy.
She is sooo adorable, people are just dumb.
When my DD was approximately 6 months old we were at church.
She was dressed in a dress and the her outfit was ALL pink.
An man came up to us and said, "Oh what a beautiful boy."
I said to myself are you for real. I said thank you, but it's a girl. He looked again and said who can tell.
When he walked away I said to DH - i dunno she is dressed all in pink - that would be a clue.
People don't pay attention. To be honest if I don't know the sex (it sometimes happens) I keep my conversation gender neutral.
Sorry - DD is now 2 and I still get people who are confused. I don't see how - but it happens.
Thanks! I do it after every bath. It is amazing how long it is getting! That is how I can tell her hair is growing.
People are ridiculous.
DD even had a ton of hair and was wearing it in pigtails from the time she was 5 months old.... I still got comments about what an "adorable boy" she was. Did I mention she also had earrings and was always in a dress???
Meanwhile DS now has a mohawk and is usually sporting a blue superherp shirt of some kind but all I hear is "how cute! Girl or boy?".
Yep, ridiculous.
