Five Year Old Curiosity

Found this full-term little lady sitting on the counter. My heart went out to her. Although she is radiant and glowing- in a swimsuit no less- I could sense her urgency to get that baby out!

I asked Liberty if Barbie belonged to her. "Yes" she giggled "and look at this mom" she said pointing to Barbie's protrusion, "she's pregnant!" I nodded with a look that pretended I had not noticed. "She's having twins!"

Poor Barbie. It might be another 9 months til she is rediscovered among the piles of pregnant ladies in the basement and her abdomen can become a little as a pencil again.

Liberty and her pregnant obsession.
Next up, I'm anticipating the question "mom, where do babies come from"?

  1. I love this! Last time I was over she asked me if I was pregnant, and when I said no, asked when Scott and I were having kids. She also explained family trees to me...cousins etc...and that her mom had a baby, even though it was a while ago. She makes me smile!

  2. OH My! That picture of the prego Barbie is hysterical! Did Liberty do that to her - like stuff her bathing suit? or does she come this way??

    Too funny! Good luck with the baby questions - hee hee.

  3. Liberty impregnated her with some left over fabric scraps. I think she did a very realistic job. Let's hope barbie doesn't ever come pregnant from the package!

  4. That's funny. My 4 yr old nepheew asked me the other day how babies got into mommies tummies. I told him to ask his mom. Hopefully I have a while before I have to tell Braxton about how it happens.
