When I was pregnant, I used to tell Ivan he was a big boy and he was about to be a big brother. He would then tell me "I'm not big, I am little" After discussing it numerous times, we finally agreed that he would be my "little big boy" It seemed to please him to know that he was still my little boy, but was also a big boy that could do some big boy things. It made me a little scared that he would have a big problem with a baby taking his place. It also made me sad that, in a way, I was about to replace him with a brand new baby. Much to my surprise, Ivan seems to be doing great with mommy having a new "little boy" However, that does not stop him from wanting to play with all of the baby's toys :)
