cajuncutie0169 · December 2009

i'm making a diaper cake for my sil, and a lady (who was also down the diaper aisle) walked up to me and said "i couldn't help but notice that you grabbed a box of size ones. clearly your little guy is too big for that size!"

umm...

i just looked at her and walked away. i was in too good a mood to let her screw it up lol.

lol, that was a great response.

"Thanks, but actually they're for me. You know, long car trips and whatnot. Hee heeee heeee." (insert awkward glance and twitch.) Seriously, people sometimes need to be scared out of their stupidity.

She doesn't know. You might want to paste two or three of those suckers together to make one for P-man. It would be an adventure.

seriously, its like she thinks someone else has been diapering your child the past year.

I would have told her "I have 3 more at home in this size."

Geez, talk about nosy.

Wait, they make them in different sizes?!

I dunno, I think she was just trying to be helpful. There have been plenty of times that I've bought something, only to get home and realize it is the wrong size/color/whatever. Acting like she's stupid for not knowing you're buying it for somebody else (seriously, how could she know that?) is a little mean.

This...she was just making sure you didn't grab the wrong case...

Was it said in a snotty or helpful tone? Maybe she was sincerely trying to help, thinking you accidentally grabbed the wrong size. God knows sometimes my brain is working on all its cylinders these days.

That would be a little more difficult to get wrong since "swaddlers" is plastered across the box in bright yellow print. But you didn't mention that in your original post. Still, I think she was probably just trying to be helpful. Unless, like the other poster wondered, she was being snotty in the way she said it. I say it's the holidays, give her the benefit of the doubt.

Nah. I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt on most occassions but sometimes I think other people become way too invested in what other people are doing "right" and "wrong" for their children. I think this is a prime example of a buttinski.
