My family and other animals

I'm not saying for a second that four-and-a-half-months pregnant Vanessa is massive or anything like that, but Jamie clearly would.

This morning, whilst she was in the shower, I thought it would be nice to try to explain to him just what is in Mummy's tummy.

Me: "Jamie. Do you know what's in Mummy's tummy?"

Jamie: [No comment]

Me: "Jamie, Do you know what's in Mummy's tummy?! It's a baby! Yes, Jamie, a baby!"

Jamie: [No comment]

Me: "Jamie. Mummy has a baby in her tummy! A baby! What does Mummy have in her tummy?"

Jamie: [No comment]

Me: "It's a baby! Jamie, Mummy has a baby in her tummy! What does Mummy have in her tummy?"

Jamie: "A baby!"

Result. And, right on cue, in walks Vanessa. It was time to impress.

Me: "Jamie. What does Mummy have in her tummy?"

Jamie: "Monkey!"

Me: "Nooooo. What does Mummy have in her tummy?!

Jamie: "Elephant!"

Kids.
