Must be rude comment day!

So, my last post was about the mail man making a comment about our lawn. Well, after Taylor's nap we went into Burley to meet Melissa and the boys at Story Book Park then it was running errands. My first stop was at the Book Plaza and as I was checking out the lady helping me looks at Taylor and says, "She's FAT! Look at those legs!"
Then I went to Wal-Mart and I ran into my ex sister-in-law. She came over to talk to Taylor and the first thing out of her mouth is, "Wow! She is chunky!" Are you kidding! Three deep cuts in one day huh? When Taylor was little (4 months) we went to Texas to visit my sister and I would always get offended because every one would comment on her weight. It's one thing if it's me or my CLOSE family but complete strangers? Keep your comments to your self thank you! Any way, the whole "Taylor weight" slowly faded and no one has told me in a long time anything but compliments about her. I just think it's rude to make a comment to someone you don't know (especially negative), I would never tell anyone their baby is fat or ugly! I guess I don't have a loose mouth and let things out like that! :) Plus, she's not fat-she's healthy!

She is not fat! Besides she's a baby! It means she's healthy. Don't pay attention to any of those comments. Taylor is a gorgious kid!

I wouldn't worry about it too much...people always mention how "healthy" Bentley is, when in all reality he only is weighing in the bottom 15th percentile. And his doctor is concerned about his weight (or lack of it). Obviously people don't know what they are talking about!

Taylor is not fat, she is beautiful! If she was any skinnier people would probably say, wow she is to skinny. At least she's not as big as my sister, Mandy's baby, He weighed 31 pounds at Taylor's age. It's good to be healthy, even if it brakes the mom's back. Can't wait to see you!
Love,

I hate people who make comments like that! The worst is when they imply you are being a bad mother... I've had comments about Kate's binky, or if she's fussing.. that bugs me the most!!
