The Talk

So, I know I haven't posted anything in a very, very long time, but I had to write this funny thing down before I forget. Then maybe I'll try and update you on what's going on in our crazy lives. My computer is very, very slow so it's been hard for me to keep up on the blog. That will change soon as we get it overhauled hopefully this week or next.

Anyway, as we were driving back from my nephew's ballroom dance performance tonight, we started talking about when the kids were babies and when they were in my belly. So Asia brought up the dreaded question, "How do those babies get into your tummy?" Gaaaaah! She's only 7! I don't think I learned about that stuff until sex ed. in fourth grade! So
I guess it was time to tell her the truth before finding out some crazy story at school. We sort- of had "the talk" with Ethan last year because he had heard some things at school and was just curious about it all. But he, apparently, had forgotten some stuff and started saying babies come from Jesus and it's like some sort of miracle how babies get into a mommy's belly. But then he started to remember little details and said, "Oh ya, that's where a mommy and a daddy put their private parts together!" And Asia got this disgusted look on her face and said, "Eeeww! That's just NASTY!" Ha Ha Ha! Cracked us up so bad! Then they wondered if anyone could do this "nasty" thing. So we had to have a talk about who can do the "nasty" and what it's for, etc. etc. And then Ethan said, "Can't you do it just for fun?" That's when Mike and I totally lost it! Man, I gotta practice some sex ed. answers for these tough sex questions! YiKeS, I'm not ready for my kids to grow up!! HELP! :)

Hahaha, sooo hilarious! I was worried there would be a bunch of questions with this pregnancy, but so far, none really. Good thing, too, cause I still have no idea what to tell them!

That is awesome! We were having dinner the other night and Alivia bursts out "So where do babies come from anyway?" And Lacey's immediate response was, "You DON'T wanna know!" It was hilarious! :-)
