Where do babies come from?


I have always dreaded having this discussion with my children, but much to my surprise Carly already knew a lot. . .
CARLY: (very matter of factly) "You know, I came out of your tummy."
MOM: "Yes, you did."
CARLY: "And then....Caleb came out of your tummy next."
MOM: "You are right!"
CARLY: (thinking.....)
DAD: (piping in with his usual sarcasm) "And Daddy came out of Mommy's tummy too, right?"
CARLY: (scowling at Josh) "No. He came out of his mommy's tummy."
MOM: "Yup.... and where did Mom come from when she was born?"
CARLY: (very sure of herself...) "You came out of your own tummy! . . . Silly."

This is so great. I'm scared of this conversation too... David has been asking some pretty detailed questions about how this baby is going to come out and WHERE this baby is going to come out ... and I'm trying to remain as vague as possible. =D
