CHUB

Sunday, April 19, 2009

Chub is crazy stuff. In the first couple years of life, we spend lots of time oohing and aahing over how cute it is. Sometimes it's so cute, I whip out the camera to get some shots like these:

We get lots of comments.
Nice ones like "Oh she's such a healthy little baby!" "She must be a really good eater!"
Then less nice comments like "Boy, she ain't missed many meals!" and "Look at those rolls!"
And then we get comments that furrow my brow. "Do you think she's getting a little too chubby?" "Her cheeks are so big!"
And my personal favorite "She's fat!!" (This particular comment usually comes from someone I could say "Right back atcha!" to with no regrets.)
Personally, I'm lovin' the chub. At least for a couple more years.
