We are in the thick of getting the house ready for Maddox’s Woodland Creature-themed 2nd birthday party… which is funny, because there are still decorations from her 1st birthday party hanging up in our hallway.
Specifically, I’m talking about the banner I created, featuring Maddox’s monthly baby picture from birth through 11 months.
This morning, Maddox came racing out of her bedroom and, upon spotting me, ran into my arms for a Good Morning Hug. Then, she saw her birthday banner.
She pointed and said, “I have a baby!”
“That’s YOU when you were a baby,” I told her.
“No….” she said, smiling. “I have a baby in my tummy.”
“You don’t have a baby in your tummy,” I chided. “MOMMY has a baby in her tummy.”
“Right here?” Maddox pointed to my chest.
I laughed, “No, right here,” and showed here my protruding tummy, which she happened to be pretty much perched on.
“No, right here,” she corrected me, and pointed to her own tummy. “My baby cute!”
Oh man. Wait until this baby comes… it’s going to be a madhouse around here.
