I can’t catch a break. Saturday evening I totally forgot to lock the bathroom door while preparing what was supposed to be a relaxing bath. Several minutes into my relax, Drama Queen busts in, kneels by the tub and begins to question me. Invasive, yet adorable, I didn’t put up much of a fight to have her leave. She seemed perfectly happy to chill a bit and respect the quiet.
Several minutes later, Princess busts in, wiggles over tubside in her little lavender carter’s, looks me up and down and giggles.
Princess:(pointing to my breasts) ”Hey, Mama, look at those!”
themommykelly: “Look at what, sweetie?”
Princess: “Those, Mama, the suckers. You know, the ones I used to suck when I was a baby?!”
The kid slays me! Who the hell has been instructing my kid on breastfeeding? She never did!
I know. It must be the breastfeeding conspirators.
When my sis was breast-feeding her (brand new) third baby, her oldest kid, Jack, age 4, said, “Is she going to use that other thing?”
“What other thing?”
Pointing: “That other- milk thing.”
HaHa! My kid hasn’t talked about my boobs yet! yeay you are 6 weeks preggars ahead of me!
LOL!!
I can SO appreciate this. I didn’t breast feed either, although my kids have no idea what breasts are for.
lol! I’m a bfing mum with suckers!
:)
Tim (4) thinks men can do it too. He gets most put out when I tell him only ladies can. I try and console him with the fact boys can do other things but it’s a bit hard to explain what those ‘other’ things are yet. *snort*
Your comment over in Bahama land made me laugh. I am sufficiently put in my place
We are very fortunate to have had the opportunity, resources and nerve to get the view we have. Now I’ve said that… am I still allowed to be occasionally morbidly sentimental and weepy? My niece used to breast feed her dollies from her stomach when my nephew was nursing. Not quite sure she grasped the concept.
HA. My now 5 year old nephew was caught “pumping” like his mommy did when his twin siblings were about 4 months old! The pictures my brother sent around are definately blackmail worthy when the kid starts to date!
popped over from Amy’s Memories and Musings…blog.

My son points at my breasts, cracks up laughing, and says Momma’s!! I swear. I’m getting a complex. What’s so funny about my boobs, I wonder?
