Big Brother

I got some new books a few weeks ago; they're books about babies and being a big brother. I have learned a lot and am very excited about this big brother thing. Did you know that babies can't walk or talk at first? I know that! Did you know that babies can't eat pizza? I know that! The "Big Brother" book is my favorite. The day it came, I had mama read it three times. Then we read two other books. Then we read the Big Brother book again twice.

I am very careful with mama's belly and take very good care of her. I make sure she drinks water and keep her covered up with a blanket when she's lying down. If she tells me her tummy hurts a little, I kiss it and say "there, now the baby feels better." I tell everybody that her tummy's going to get bigger and bigger (there are hand motions that go with this...) and pop and the baby's going to come out. It's a little fuzzy in my head what happens after that part.

Mama keeps asking me if I'm going to have a little brother or little sister. I keep telling her little sister, but she keeps asking. The doctor will tell them in a couple weeks anyway. I bet I'm right.

I'm going to be a great big brother.
