Early fashion sense

Went to the mall with firstborn today. As we walked past the maternity shop, I noticed he was paying a lot of attention to the mannequins who were all sporting maternity T-shirts saying SALE in big red letters. Obviously the neatness of it all intrigued him. I wondered if he noticed the little bellies on the headless mannequins, until he said:
"Boy, those shirts sure make them look fat!"

"They're supposed to be pregnant," I replied.

"Oh!" Silence.

I guess he did notice.

You could have told him what my grandfather told us as kids...those ladies (the pregnant ones) swallowed watermelon seeds and now have watermelons growing inside them.

He was a real kick!
