Baby Cat Calls

This week I took Katy for a walk in our neighborhood using my baby carrier.  After strapping Katy to my frontside, I put on a lightweight jacket in an attempt to hide my leggings.  The jacket did little to cover the tightness of my pants, but it did hide the straps of the baby carrier on my back.  Being too lazy to change into more appropriate pants, Katy and I left the house.  After walking for a few minutes, I heard someone yelling, "hey baby" from behind.  I turned my head just in time to see a car driving in my direction. There was a kid in his late teens or early 20's with his head out the passenger window staring at me and making kissing noises in my direction. As the car passed me, however, the cat calls stopped when the baby strapped to the front of my chest became visible to the vehicle and its passengers.  I guess the gawking kid was interested in tight leggings but not so interested in a mom or a baby.

This story was brilliant. I hope you leave your house in leggings more often ;)
