Did I miss the logic here?

Thats weird, its not like she wanted to take him out of the house... silly girl.

I have a relation, who will remain unnamed, that turned her nose up at FREE, age appropriate clothing, for similar reasons.

As to freezing in the house, well, you must keep it pretty cool in there for that to be a possibility. I have just never been a fan of Jonah wandering around in his underwear....though, I do know people that think it is no big deal at all. I don't even like him in just his t-shirt and pants!

This is not the first time I heard a reference to Ashley NOT liking Camry's choice of clothes. I am feeling quite like "Well, I am surely not going to spend any more money on gifts of clothes only for them to be rejected! " He will NOT die due to UGLY. Just wait until he chooses his OWN clothes....THAT will probably be uglier!

(p.s. I too prefer a clothed baby to a naked one. Don't know why, just personal preference)

Kim Perhaps she knows it bugs you and she is doing it on purpose. Maybe ignore it for a while...turn the heat up so he doesn't freeze and see what happens...although she isn't paying the heating bill so she won't care. I love it when my girls walk around in spaghetti straps and complain about how cold it is in the house

I'm 21 (and pregnant) and I personally wouldn't care whether or not it was ugly. If they still fit I would be glad to let my baby wear it. I mean if its just around the house, why does it matter whether or not it is ugly.
I wouldn't let my baby be in just a diaper when its cold outside, regardless if the child is in the house.

I feel your pain!

Some people just dont get it! My SIL wouldnt take used baby clothes from me, she preferred to go out and buy all brand new stuff! It is rediculous, i dont get it, they grow so fast that they only get to wear an outfit a couple of times anyways! Now my niece on the other hand, juts emptied out the attic with all of our baby stuff, cause she is due in march! She loved all the free stuff, i was so happy i could help!

I told hubby the story and he rolled his eyes.

All I know is the girl needs a serious wake up call... she's worried about his clothes being ugly more so than serious things like what his father does to support him. Things are getting too stressful for her. I haven't mentioned it but things are definately stressful and she's been on edge. He screamswhen he's with her all the time now, and quiets when we take him from her. He knows she's tense and he picks up on it. Hubby tore into her last night because she wanted to watch a movie and he decided to have a temper tantrum. She screamed at him that she is "tired of his crap"

Poor girl couldn't watch her movie.... awwww... pity party for the 18 year old mom

Hubby said she should NEVER tell her son that his crying is a bunch of crap. Its getting bad. Thursday should be "interesting" because hubby's sisters will be here and they plan on giving her a lecture on growing up.

that's kind of what I was thinking - not that I contributed to a gift or anything but seems like she is acting not only a tad immature but a tad spoiled too. Dare I say it? Sounds like she is looking a gift horse in the mouth also if some of those clothes were gifts. That's a good way to NOT get things anymore!

Good luck

Geez! That's kinda goofy.

I don't know, though, my sister in law will put a pretty nice (in whatever way. I don't know if they are expensive outfits but they're things you wouldn't wear every day) outfit on my niece RIGHT before she eats and then get all irritated when Grace (2 yrs on Dec 25) gets messy. She doesn't bother to help her out, put a bib on her, watch her, or put messy-clothes on. Gracie usually ends up wearing four or five outfits a day. Brandi also won't put something on Gracie if she thinks "it's ugly". She's 26.

My peeve? When she lets her clothes mildew!
