My Daughter's (Pre-Conceived) Conceptions

On Sunday we had a baby shower for a dear friend, C, who is due to have a baby shortly. E saw some of the decorations and after I explained to her what they were for I casually asked her if she knew how the baby got in C's tummy. We had previously had a one sentence discussion about where babies come from when she asked how the baby got in C's tummy a few weeks ago.

Emily's response was this: "Well, first you sleep with God a bit. And then the baby falls into a parachute and falls into the mommy's tummy". I thought this was hysterical. I don't know where the first part comes from, but I'm pretty sure the second part comes from the movie Dumbo, where the stork delivers the babies and they float down from the sky.
Here is E and our dog S, who grew by 40% while we were on vacation.
