Nothing makes a woman feel more glamorous than having her 3 year old son stare at her boobs while she is nursing and ask "Mommy, what are those?" or "Mommy, what ARE you doing?" Boobs seems to be the big topic of interest at our house since bringing Cally home and it never ceases to amaze me the things that Xander will come up with to ask regarding them. Questions like: "Do I like mama milkies?", "Do I want to try mama milkies?", "Can I make mama milkies?" We have informed Xander that only babies like mama milkies and when he was a baby he like it a lot too. But...now that he is a big boy he only likes big boy milkies out of the refrigerator. He quickly then informed his sister that she is way too little for milkies from the refrigerator and only HE could have that. She seemed alright with not getting refrigerator milk.
Two nights ago was a first though. I was putting Xander to bed and we were giving hugs and kisses when he picked up his baby doll and let me know that it was very hungry. He asked if I would please feed it so it could go to sleep. Trying to hold in my giggles I had to break it to the kid that my boo boos could only feed our baby Cally. Xander gave me a very perplexed look, almost as if he was saying..."You selfish mommy this baby is hungry!!"...and said "I will feed it then." He held the baby doll up to his button on his jammies and fed it on the button. The button milk must have been good because the baby was able to sleep through the night.
Last night we had the same sequence of events and the same look of disappointment in me when I couldn't feed the doll. Thankfully my son is very resourceful and was able to nurse his doll on his belly button.
