Shruggilly

I've noticed lately that one of Lila's invented words has become part of our family's everyday language.

"shruggilly" - adj. uncomfortable or irritating due to wrinkled fabric.

She uses it to describe her socks (she hates wearing socks!), her shirt sleeves inside her coat (she hates wearing coats!), her footie pajamas (she hates footie pajamas!), or anything else that gets all shruggily. --Can you blame her?!!

In the past few days, I've noticed Emma, myself, and even Ryan using the word in conversation without even realizing it. And why shouldn't we be using it? It's a good word! I challenge you to try it for yourself.
