Raising the next Brad Pitt...

(My beautiful baby BOY!!!)

I know mommy's tend to be biased when it comes to their own babies. I always say I have the cutest baby EVER, but what mommy doesn't?!? Up until lately people would stop me and tell me how cute my baby is, but lately it has turned into how beautiful my baby is. Let me say that Blake is always dressed like a little boy, he always wears blues or greens or red and my son does not have a single pink polo shirt in his closet. All of his blankets are blue or green or white with dogs on them, his diaper bag and stroller might be the only two unisex things he owns and even then they are both green and gray. So, why is it that people think Blake David is a little girl??? It hasn't happened just once, but multiple times!

The first time was in Costco. I was walking down the aisle with Blake and a lady stopped to tell me how beautiful my baby is. She then proceeded to ask if he was a boy or girl, and then told me that he is so beautiful it is hard to tell. Ummm... He is wearing a red sweatshirt with navy blue dogs on it, a pair of jeans, and black sneakers.... It's not that hard to tell. I shrugged it off though, at least she asked what he was!

Then there was the lady in Target. "What a beautiful baby girl you have right there!!!" I was taken back, I couldn't even correct her. He was wearing a blue sweatshirt and had a blue blanket. There was no mistaking that one. I smiled and said thanks and went on my way. I told Noah what happened and he thought I had him in a dress or something...

This morning I tried to drop him off in the daycare at the gym but they were full. I made a daycare reservation for later in the day and she told me how cute she is and asked what her name was. I told her HIS name is Blake and then she corrected herself. Seriously?! Today he was wearing a Navy Blue sweatshirt... I just don't get it!!!

I know I thought he was a girl when I was pregnant but come on... He is 100% boy. He looks like a boy and dresses like a little boy! Shortly after the Target incident my friend wrote on my facebook wall that during an interview Brad Pitt commented that when he was a baby he, too, was mistaken for a girl. I guess that means my little one might just be the next Brad Pitt... I guess being called a girl isn't that bad! lol!!!
