Mackenzie is very fascinated by pregnancy. She is particularly inspired by Leslie! She has seen Leslie's belly grow from nothing to the cute little basketball that she carries now. Every couple of weeks Mackenzie will comment on how Leslie's belly is growing bigger and bigger.
So for the past couple of weeks I have noticed her playing with her dolls again. Holding them and caring for them - really sweet right? Except now she is "pregnant". I have caught her stuffing her shirt to look pregnant and standing in front of her mirror "admiring" her belly. Then when she notices that I have peeked in on her she gets super embarrassed and "deflates" her belly.
I was able to snap a few "hidden" pictures when they were playing outside. When she realized I had taken a picture she was super mad! If she only knew I am blogging about it!
It's kind of funny to see her "pregnant" and I'm sure it's all due to fascination because of so many people having babies - but I hope this is a sight I DO NOT see until she is married and at least in her late 20's!
Look what an impact you've made Leslie!

OMGosh! She is just the sweetest girl ever! Maybe tell her to put on four pairs of socks so she can have swollen feet, too :)
On the flip side, Brytin tells me he is THANKFUL he never has to be pregnant. LOL
Carla and I have noticed she and Samara doing this during our stretch break at school. But, yes let's wait until her late 20's. LOL

Because this is my first time reading this blog and I'm unfamiliar with your daughter's age, I must tell you that my own daughter (who is 7) has done this, also. In a way it's cute, but at the same time it's kind of shocking and OMYGOSH-ish. I think it's just something little girls go through. Even her dolls have been pregnant, at one point or another. My oldest daughter didn't do this, so it was very strange when my little one did it. Glad to know I'm not the only one that's gone through this!
I remember playing pregnant with my girlfriends when I was about her age.
