So I thought I was pretty avant-garde for having this in my living room, but whoever has this on her front lawn is my heroine .

So where is that fountain?
It doesn't look like a home in the background.

It's in Piazza Maggiore, Bologna, Italy.

I love it! and for me, one MORE reason to love my heritage. I mean, regardless of your religious background (I'm a very lapsed catholic myself), you have to appreciate a culture where one of the central religious images is a mother and her baby, like this (breastfeeding!) Madonna and Child.... http://www.hermitagemuseum.org/html_En/03/hm3_3_1b.html

Ah, I should have guessed that statue was in Europe. Americans are too prudish for a realistic, natural, sculpture like that!

Love Love Love them. I would love a replica of the first one. That would be a great new mama gift.

Me too! I'm not a gnome person, but this I would have to have. Where do we get these nursing gnomes?

I have two left in stock - and that is what people have bought them for, as gifts for new mamas (I think it would be a great weaning gift, if we had such parties).

One acquaintance said it best, "See there is more than one hole!!!".
