Big Sister Madeline

We have been trying to prepare Madeline for the arrival of her baby brother in a few short months, while at the same time trying not to make too big a deal too soon before the big event. We've been telling her, "Madeline is going to have a baby brother," to which she replies, "No baby brother--baby sister!" While she likes babies, she prefers that Nathan and I steer clear of them and only admire them from a distance - a very far distance away. She caught me off guard today while at the doctor's office, proudly putting her hands on my belly while explaining to her pediatrician, "Baby Grant in mommy's belly."
