She's just being a kid

I have to remind myself this 

when my daughter....
swallows a spoon full of bath water
and says, "Mmmmm.  This juice is good!  I wike it!"

*sigh* 

Kids.

Just When You Think It's Over...

Interesting comments is what I mean.

Remember how I would get all kinds of comments about my belly? (If you have read my various posts about pregnancy, you know what I mean.) Well, apparently those days are not quite over...yet.

On Monday (a week exactly after Alayna was born) I decided to "venture" out and get the mail. Mind you, this is about a minute walk, and the hardest part was walking up and down the three flights of stairs. I just had to "get out".

When going through the mail, I found a letter that did not belong to us and decided to take it into the office and give it to one of the managers. After handing her the letter and explaining it did not belong to us, she looked at me and said:

Manager: "Oh. When are you due?!"

Me:"Um. Actually I just had her a week ago. I am just not quite down to my normal size yet."

Manager: "Oh! I am so sorry."

Me: "That's ok."

She then proceeded with some small talk about the baby. (I think in her mind, this was making up for the earlier comment. Yeah right.)

What's funny about this whole encounter is the fact that I saw this person all the time around the apartment complex and she would ask me how much longer I had left. And... not to mention the fact that these people have never seen me NOT pregnant since I was 5 months pregnant when we moved here. So, anyway, I should look pretty dang good to them considering I don't look like I have a HUGE basketball under my shirt. I honestly think she didn't recognize me.

You may think that this event may have bothered me and that is why I am posting it, but actually, I think it is rather funny. It just goes to show some people have a hard time thinking before they speak. Now, if I encounter a similar conversation in a month or two, THEN I will be a little bothered.
