Since Mom is pregnant again, we've been talking about what it's like to have a baby in her belly. She was surprised that I remembered so much about being in her belly when she was pregnant with me! Recently we had a conversation that went like this:
Mama: "You used to be in my belly, do you remember that?"
Me: "Yeah, warm."
Mama: It was warm in there?
Me: Yeah, warm. Dark.
Mama: Wow! What else do you remember about being in my belly? Was it loud or quiet?
Me: Loud!
Mama: It was loud, really!? What did it sound like?
Me: Loud. Like waves outside. (pointing to our view of the ocean)
Mama: It sounded like the waves outside! Wow! How long were you in mama's belly?
Me: Two years!
Mama: Two ears?! You heard the waves with two ears?
Me: Two YYYears.
Mama: Oh, years. You were in there two years?
Me: (nodding)
Mama: What was it like to get out of mama's belly?
Me: Traffic cone, come out!
Mama: You came out of mama's belly through a traffic cone!? (laughing)
Me: (seriously) Too big!
Mama: The traffic cone was too big?
Me: No (pointing to his own chest) Too big!
Mama: Oh, you were too big!
Me: Yeah, squeeze, squeeze. (squeezing his hands together)
Mama: You had to squeeze to get out! Who did you see when you got out? Did you see Papa?
Me: Papa. Yeah, NO! See Grandma!
Mama: You didn't see Papa, you saw Grandma when you came out?
Ma: Yeah, see Grandma! See Grandma!
