Jelly on my Tummy?

Most kids are interested in whats happening when their mommy is pregnant. But Zachary has taken it to another level. Very early in Sara's pregnancy, he became convinced (on his own!) that he also has a baby in his tummy.

When he is hungry, he needs: "Food to make my baby grow."
If Avery plays too rough he says, "Don't hurt my baby!"
And ever since Sara let the kids feel her baby kick, we periodically hear "My baby is kicking me."

Today Sara told the kids they had to stop by the doctor's office to drop off forms for preschool. Zachary immediately piped up with: "And I get the jelly on my tummy and I see my baby moving?"

It took a moment to make the connection: he was referring to Sara's last sonogram.
