Her Cheerios


I think Julie is starting to show.

When I leave for school, Julie and Lyla are always upstairs. Julie gets ready for work (stuffing the beach ball up her shirt, etc.) while Lyla eats Cheerios. The other day, Julie was blow-drying her hair, and Lyla stood on the stool and started pressing Cheerios against Julie's belly.

"Sweetie, what are you doing?"

"I feeding my [our son's name]."

"Oh! Well you know, when babies come out, they only drink milk."

This information blew Lyla's mind.

"Tee-ohs."

"Cheerios are for big girls. Babies only drink milk because they're so teeny-tiny."

Lyla nodded her head pensively. "Babies dink mihk."

"Yes."

"My Tee-ohs."

Read her thoughts: "So you're saying I don't have to share with the baby. Score!"
