I've always liked this one.

One question:

WHY ARE ALL THE BABIES NAKED???

Thank you Liv! I have been dying to ask that!!

Good question. Did they have "litter boxes" for those babies? Hmmm.
Or were the moms so busy that getting babies dressed just didn't happen?

Maybe it gives us insight to how the pioneers potty-trained their kids? Or all the cloth diapers were being washed at the time.

I don't know but it is cause for wonder isn't it?!
