Belly Button

I was texting with a boy and we were discussing the recent snow storm. He texted "I'm taking a break from shoveling my driveway. The snow was literally up to my belly button."

Is it acceptable, as an adult, to use the word "belly button?" Couldn't he have just said "stomach" or "chest"  or "above the knee"??

I don't think I'm being picky. I think the only time I've referenced the word "belly button" was when in college I proclaimed "I want to get my belly button pierced." That was quickly followed with "I just got my belly button pierced!! Woo-hoo!!"

Don't think I've used the word since....
