Boobie eaters

The Dictator was not breastfed. Not once. Ever. Not in the hospital. Not at home. Not anywhere.
I simply wasn't interested and she seemed to like her organic formula an awful lot anyways. Judge however you will. It's what worked for us, and we're both happy, healthy and well-fed.

With that all being said, the Dictator is becoming increasingly interested in her body and other people's bodies. She has been starting to notice differences between boys and girls. She is also trying to figure out how the heck babies get here, and why they do the things they do.

While out and about today, we saw a woman breastfeeding. The Dictator asked me what they were doing and I responded "She's feeding her baby breast milk. That's what some babies eat." The Dictator looked skeptical. Her follow up- "That baby is eating her boobie! What a meanie! Why isn't that Momma crying? That must hurt big!" There was really no trying to reason with her. Telling her milk comes out of a boob is like telling her that when we get home flying monkeys will be in her room and want to eat cookies with her. It's not part of her reality. Cows make milk. And it's chocolate flavored.

As we were walking by (I could feel some horrible comment coming on. Knowing the Dictator, I know that she is going to blab at any moment.) the Dictator very loudly told that breastfeeding woman and her 'meanie baby' off.

The Dictator: "You should really give that baby milk in a cup! He needs to grown up and stop being a baby. Boobies go in bras!"

Oh well....I didn't really like that store anyways.
