Yesterday we were talking about how moms who breastfeed in public are terrorists but women who show off their breasts for men are sexy.

I was walking around the mall last weekend and noticed that a section of stores were blocked off to prepare for a new shop to open.

Our theme this week has been babies. If you’ve been stopping by, you’ve already read about how you can’t spoil a baby and fun baby games. Today we’re talking about women after pregnancy. And babies.
