Out of the mouths of babes

Last night we had our small group and William stayed with the babysitter they coordinated. The leaders of the group had been using this sitter so they arranged for her to watch any kids of the group (which for now is just their one and our one) She watches the kids at their house while we are at the neighborhood community center down the street. It works great and William loves their daughter. She's 1 and he told me all week he wanted to go back to her house and that he has to be very gentle with her cause she's a baby. 

I asked the sitter how he was and she said he was perfect - duh :) she said she asked him if he had any siblings. They had this conversation:
Do you have any siblings?
Little by little
What? What does that mean?
Little by little.
Do you have a little brother or sister?
No
Is there one in your mommy's tummy?
Not yet. Soon. Maybe February.

While I sure hope I don't have to wait until February I really don't know where he got any of that! Don't know if it's funny or intuitive or both. But he has been telling us lately that he wants a baby sister and a baby brother. And the baby brother will be named Case. He has voiced an opinion on a baby sister's name but I'm betting it's just a matter of time. Sounds like he's got it all planned out!
