say it like it is, son
last night after dinner, we showed the kids the video of my sonogram, and ethan was more than thrilled to see the baby's heartbeep... again and again and again! i think he actually understood that the chicken nugget-shaped black mass on the screen was the baby in my tummy! i wanted to show him how it would end up looking more like an actual baby as it grew, so i whipped out caroline's 20 week sonogram video. we hadn't watched it since the day we brought that video home 2 years ago--how neat to watch it with that little baby sitting on the couch with us exclaiming, "baby! baby!" ethan loved telling her, "that's YOU, caroline! that's YOU!"
anyway, after we watched her heartbeep several times, i reminded ethan that this baby would get bigger and bigger and that mommy would also get bigger and bigger. as i put my arms out to show him how big i would get, he replied so matter-of-factly....
yes. fat.
