when it is time to do push aways, or push ups, or to just buy a push up bra

Since I have several friends and a sister who either are breastfeeding, or have recently breast fed their babies, Annabelle has gotten quite an eye-ful of the chi-chis lately. And since I breastfed forever, I think it is totally natural and no big deal that Annabelle tries to nurse her dolls and sometimes even tries to get her Papa to act as a wet nurse, which of course, Hyphen does.

She is also becoming more aware of bodies especially the parts that are covered up and occasionally and randomly says "boys have a penis, girls have giants."

Today, while we were coming home from the library, was one of those random annoucement days and it went like this:

Annabelle:Annabelle has little chi-chis. Mama has big chi-chis.

Me:(partially grateful, remembering in high school how someone referred to me as the great plains and Audrey as the rocky mountains, and partially annoyed, remembering a time when I was voted to have the best boobs in the office and now viewing what was once perky and pleasing to have become somewhat National geographic in nature): Yes that's right Annabelle.

Annabelle: Annabelle has little chi-chis and papa has little chi-chis. Mama has big chi-chis. Mama and Grandma and Grandpa have big chi-chis.

Okay, so maybe there should be someone who is more annoyed than I am.
