Last night at the dinner table the girls were talking about when they were in my tummy ...
Chatty: "Mom how did we get out of your tummy?"
Me: "The doctor"
Chatty: "No really tell me the truth how did we get out of your tummy?"
Mr. ESPN: "Mommy threw you up!" - Nice one dear!
Chatty: "No way, that's not true, your mouth is too small, how did we get out?"
Me: "Mmmm"
Chatty: "Did the doctor cut us out of your tummy?"
Me: "Yeah that's what he did"
Chatty: "That doesn't sound like fun"
Me: "Are you rethinking you desire to have 11 kids?"
Note - I did NOT have a c-section with either of my kids, but I figured this was an easier explanation than the truth. They can't handle the truth right now ... especially after saying my mouth was too small!!

HA! That's pretty funny!
nice one cous!!!
I like Mr. ESPN's version better.
I had 3 c-sections and use this reasoning all the time. My kids don't think there is another option!
That is hilarious!
I got flustered just like you when my kids asked me the same thing. no c-sections here but that was the answer I gave. Have a great weekend!
I'm lucky to have had the c-sections so that is my answer. Strangely enough though - Shaun just asked last night how babies are made. Not as easy to answer. hmmmm....It was an interesting and SHORT conversation.
lol! love your conversations!!
i told kate that she was surgically removed. i did have c's, so it's true. i like the 'surgical' part of the explanation. a lot easier to explain!! :)
threw them up... HAA
I love those questions!
