I call Elise "Baby Baby," as in "you are a tiny little version of a baby." She was so small when she was born, and she still is small. People comment on it all of the time. Just yesterday at the grocery store, one of the cashiers that we used to see a lot when I was pregnant came up to us to see the baby.
"She's so small! How big is she?"
"Just a little over 7 pounds right now."
"Oh, see my daughter had my first grandbaby 7 months ago, but she was never that tiny. She was 9 and 1/2 pounds when she was born..."
Baby Baby is growing fast and soon she won't be a baby baby anymore. But I'll probably still call her Baby Baby for a while-- it's become a habit.
