Kara has been fascinated with where babies come from lately. She is convinced that you can go to the doctor and get a baby. This is a conversation we had this morning on our way to a doctor's appointment:
"Mommy, you got Jessalyn from the doctor. Are we going to get another Jessalyn?"
Me: "No honey. Jessalyn was in mommy's tummy. Mommy went to the hospital and the doctors helped get Jessalyn out of mommy's tummy. Mommies go to the doctor so their babies can be born."
Kara: "oh. When I was a mommy, my dolly came out of my tummy! That's the rule! Babies have to go to the doctor all the time!"
Sadly, Kara has a very skewed idea of how often people have to go to the doctor. Between me and Jessalyn, poor Kara has been to the doctor probably between 12-15 times these last 4 months! So in her world, it makes sense that she thinks babies have to go to the doctor all the time.
And she still doesn't believe me that you can't just go to the hospital and get a baby. I wish it was that easy!
