Juju: "Will the baby be born in an Africa hospitable?"
Jack (after seeing a black and white sonogram): "Is the baby going to be black? Are you sure, because it's black in this picture, and that would be neat."
Bella: "Are you going to make me share a room with the baby?"
Juju: "Can I stay four until the baby is four so we can play together?"
Jack: "Will you bring me back the electrical cord from the hospital? I want to see it."
Bella: "If I have to babysit the baby, will you pay me? How much? Five bucks? TEN bucks? You know Mom? I'm getting really excited for the baby to come."
Bonus points if you can guess what type of cord Jack really wanted me to bring home. I would have preferred to reach for an electrical cord.

Congratulations on your newest addition. So glad you are feeling better, now, too. The questions your kids asked are priceless. They made my day for sure. And, how crazy is it that this baby is due on your daughters birthday. I think I've told you before that ALL FIVE of my children were due in January? Never on the same day, but in the same month none-the-less. The twins came in November though so I got a break. :)
Angie,
I cannot believe all 5 of your kids were due in January! You have me beat by a mile. I'm betting this baby will not make it to October, certainly not if I have anything to do with it! Although I will NEVER repeat the castor oil experiment I did with Juju. Once in a lifetime is more than enough. Can't believe people ever gave that to their kids.
What lovely happy news! Best wishes, Cathy
This is hilarious! Thanks for making me laugh so hard I cried this evening.
Congratulations!
Too funny! I love the things little ones come up with :-)
Did jack want you to bring home the umbilical cord?
First, I'm not sure how I'm so late to get this good news because I was on your blog last week and I missed it! Shows how perceptive I am! Anyway, congrats! And such funny, funny things kids say! When I had #3 I recall #2 ask me if he could "have a snack of boob too". It was a resounding no!
This really made my day! Still laughing.
When my daughter, Candy, was four and my son, Otto, was two, I told Candy that I was going to have another baby (planning to enlighten her a bit about gestation).
Her face lit up and she asked eagerly, "Then can I have Otto?"
