Innocence

Caught this pic a few weeks ago and thought how adorable and innocent Kolby looked clinging to Plex, Teddy, and Preston the dinosaur. Don't you just wanna squeeze him?!

Here's a few recent Kolby Convos:

1. Daniel was telling the kids that they were smart.

Kolby: I know, because I have a brain. Its in my head under my bones.

Daniel: Who has a bigger brain, mommy or daddy?

Kolby: Daddy, because he's just bigger.

Daniel: But who is smarter, Mommy or Daddy?

KOlby: um kolby is!

good answer kolbs!

2. The other day my heart was breaking as Kolby looked at me and said, "Mommy, you're always tired and you're always sick!" I just had to tell him why.

*

Me: I'm tired and sick because there's a baby in my tummy

KOlby: You are having a baby? Just for me?!

Me: ya, well for our whole family

Kolby: We need to buy a carseat! Then the baby can go places with us and i will play with it. Is it a boy or a girl?

Me: I don't know. What do you think?

KOlby: Its a girl.

Me: Why?

Kolby: so she can share a room with Olivia and i will give her all of Olivia's dolls. I will be very careful with your belly and with the baby. We need to tell dad!

Kolby: You can go to the hospital and there will be nice doctors there and they will cut open your belly and pull the baby out.

I prefer to keep some of Kolby's innocence in the matter of child birth. His aunt is having a C-section so we may just let be the only known way to birthe a baby for now:) Certain realities are too scary for even me to contemplate at the moment.
