Babies in tummies

While taking a shower, Todd examined his bellybutton and wanted to know what it was and where it came from. I explained to him how he grew inside Mommy's tummy and how a cord was attached to his belly so that when Mommy ate food, it would go through the cord and into baby Toddy, so he could grow. This sparked a discussion of where other members of the family came from: Mommy grew in Oma's tummy, Oma grew in Ama's tummy, and Daddy grew in Grandma's tummy.

Todd's next logical leap? Who grows in Toddy's tummy? I explained that babies don't grow in boys' tummies, only girls'.

But Todd begged to differ: "Boys grow in boys' tummies!"

Later on, while in SB, he asserted that while he was in Mommy's tummy, he had his stuffed turtle with him in there ;-)
