Last night, while Ali and Isabella were having a bath, Ali asked a question that led to Isabella asking a question, which led to me giving the girls a short lesson in the female anatomy. I know grown women who don't understand how all of their parts work, and so I figured I might as well start teaching some of this stuff to the girls now. Knowledge is power - right?

"So, this part of your body does this, this one does that and that part is where the baby comes out." (I used the correct terms, but I will spare you those.)

Thoughtful Silence.

"You mean the baby (and here she creates a round circle with her hands) comes out of that tiny hole!!!!?"

"Yep, Isabella it sure does."

"Well, too bad. I'm not having a baby!"

"Yeah, I know what you mean."

"And, I am definitely NOT having a girl because she will probably want to paint her nails and do her makeup and all that gross stuff."

"But, Isabella, I'm gonna have a girl because boys are so gross and stuff. I don't like boys. They are so stinky" offers little Ali.


"Well, whatever. All I know is I'm not havin' nooooo baby!"
