Recorded here are a couple of conversations, artificially combined into one conversation, that we've had with Moses about "the new baby."
Mommy: So, Moses - do you want to have a baby boy or a baby girl?
Moese: Ummmmm, maybe a girl or a boy or a baby or sumpin..."
Mommy: What would you like to name the baby if it's a girl?
Moses: How about Posie?
Mommy: Oh, so we'd have Lily and Posie, huh? Good idea. What about if we have a boy - what would you like to name a boy?
Moses: How about Missus TinkeeWinkle (Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle, ala Beatrix Potter).
Mommy: I think that's a girls name - how about a different name.
Moses: OK, Peter Rabbit.
Daddy: Well buddy, you know that it's not going to be rabbit.
Moses: (with enough exasperation to convince you that he's actually 15 or 16) I KNOW daddy. It's a baby, not a rabbit (inaudible "duh!" followed by a long ponderous pause). But maybe there could be a rabbit in there too!
Oh, that's what those two long, pointy ear-like things were in the ultrasound...well, now the only question is, what should we name the rabbit?
