Gehrig and "his baby"....


You know how when you are pregnant your kids notice stuff and you don't even know it. Soon they are mimicking you and the next thing you know all of you are "pregnant". When I was pregnant with Gehrig, Satchel use to pretend to run to the bathroom to throw up. With Emma it was all about listening to each other's tummies to hear the "baby". This time Gehrig has created a new twist.


This morning he began holding his stomach. When I asked what was going on he said that "something" was kicking inside him. Later he said, "I think it is my baby." I tried to explain that only women get that privilege and he was absolutely convinced that I was wrong because he had "a baby teddy bear in there". Then I said how exciting it is going to be for Daddy when he gets home to find two "pregnant" people. Gehrig then said that it was okay to tell Dad, but not to tell Satchel because it is going to be a surprise. :)

I love it! Keli's boys always like to play mommy after the pregnancy. I have seen both boys "nursing" whatever animal, doll or whatever else they can find a few times!
