McKenna is really excited about having a baby sister. I wasn't sure how soon we should tell her but I think she totally understands what is going on. She often wants to talk to the baby and kiss her good night.
A few weeks ago over about 4 days we have a few adorable conversations about the baby. They went something like this:
Kenna: "Mommy is your baby in your belly?"
Me: "Yes"
Kenna: "What is your baby doing?"
Me: "I don't know Kenna. What do you think the baby is doing?"
Kenna: "Your baby playing?"
Me: "Maybe"
Kenna: "Your baby have toys?"
Me: "No, the baby doesn't have toys"
Kenna gathered up some of her toys and said "I have toys. Give them to your baby"
Another conversation:
Kenna: "Mommy, whats your baby doing? Your baby sleeping?"
Me: "Yeah, probably"
Kenna: "Mommy, your baby have jammies on?"
Me: "No, the baby doesn't have jammies"
Kenna got a horrified look on her face and said: "Your baby NAKED????!!!!"
Yet another conversation:
Kenna: "Mommy, open up your belly"
Me: "Sweetie, I can't open my belly"
Kenna: "But I NEED to tell my sister something"
Me: "You can talk through the belly"
Then a few days ago Kenna wanted to see her baby. I explained that we have a while before we can see the baby, that she needs to grow big and strong before we can see her. Kenna then leaned in and kissed my belly as she talked to the baby. Then she leaned even closer and tried to look into my belly button to see the baby. It was adorable!
