Curious 3 year olds. . .

As my pregnant belly gets larger the questions become more frequent. . .I went to the doctor yesterday answering these questions as easily as I could to Emma as we approached the doctors office. . ."Are we getting the baby out today?; Why aren't we getting the baby out today?; When will we get the baby out?; Can I see the baby now?; What does the baby eat?; and Can it talk? She is getting more and more inquisitive about this baby she calls "brother" (Emma decided a long time ago it was a boy). Today we were at Chick-fil-A talking about how the baby eats. I told her as simple as I could about the umbilical cord and placenta! Emma just chuckled and said "nuh-uh mommy the baby just eats baby food. . .you're silly". It's incredible to see her little mind thinking and wondering about the miracle of pregnancy and childbirth. I let her watch A Baby Story or Birth Day with me sometimes to try to explain to her that that's how mommys have babies. For the most part she gets bored with the shows but she always asks those hard to answer questions! She understands there is another baby "like Anna" in my tummy and that it will come home with us soon but mostly she is excited that she and Anna will get to go stay with Papa and Wanka when Daddy and Mommy go to the "Hostibl".
