We had a new baby at the house on Sunday. Alicia is 2 weeks old and is breastfed by her mommy Deanna. Once Alicia's lunchtime came around the breast came out. Faith was very intrigued and probably oogled & googled poor Deanna's chest a little longer than she should have. Later on after Deanna took the baby home Faith started up this conversation with me:
Faith: Mommy, did you see Deanna's boobies?
Me: yes, she was feeding Alicia
Faith: baby eats boobies?
Me: well, she drinks the milk in the boobies
Faith: Well that's silly * giggle giggle*
Me: Lots of babies drink milk from their momma's boobies
Faith: NO WAY! That's funny, Mommy. You're so silly
** So it's apparent that Faith forgot she was breastfed for a year. I think if I told her that she wouldn't believe me. Anything that doesn't come from a sippy cup or a small cardboard box with a straw isn't a feasable way to quench thirst.
