The Baby Girl and the Baby Boy

Two babies were sat in their cribs, when one baby shouted to the other, ``Are you a little girl or a little boy?''

``I don't know,'' replied the other baby, throwing it's hands in the air ``I don't know how to tell the difference.''

``Well, I do,'' said the first baby excitedly. He carefully maneuvered himself into the other baby's crib, then lifted the blankets. After a couple of moments, he resurfaced with a big grin on his face ``You're a little girl, and I'm a little boy,'' he said proudly.

``Oh, you're ever so clever,'' cooed the baby girl, '`but how can you tell?''

``It's quite easy really,'' replied the baby boy. '`You've got pink booties, and I've got blue ones!''
