The birds and the bees

I was hanging out with my cousin's 3 and a half year old son last week and he asked me a tricky question. I think I handled it pretty well. Here's how it went down.

A: Did you used to be a baby?

J: Yeah, did you?

A: Yeah. I was in my mommy's tummy. Were you in a tummy?

J: Yeah. I was in Tiss' tummy.

A: Why?

J: Because she's my mommy. Jared was in her tummy too.

A: Two babies were in a tummy?!?!

J: We weren't in there at the same time. First Jay was in there, then I was, then Jared.

A: How did you get out of her tummy?

J: God takes babies out of their mommy's tummys when they're done growing.

A: (after thinking about this for a minute): I think I came out her mouth.
