Babies are supposed to be chubby!

   What do people not understand about this? No, you don't want them fat at 2 years old but have people not heard of "baby fat" and that it does go away?

   Rayne and I were in Walmart today, getting my new prescription and some other things when the man behind the pharmacy counter leaned over and started talking to her. Not a big deal. Then I hear, "You're going to be a big girl". Okay... that can be taken one of two different ways so I tried taking it the good way - that she was going to grow up and be a big girl. No harm. Then as we were leaving...

   "You're going to have to get her to do some exercises..."

   She's 9 months old you old fart! (9 months old today to be exact and we had just left her 9 month check up where they said she looked good. She even gained 2 inches in length!)  Comments like this don't upset me like they used to - I would have been reduced to tears once we got home about 4 months ago - but they annoy me more than anything. No, not all babies have to be chubby, mine just is. And she's beautiful that way, chubby cheeks and all!
