I've called all my kid's "Baby", usually until the next baby came along.  Which would explain why I still call Noah "Baby".  Here's the conversation I had with Noah the other day.
Me:  Whatcha doing, Baby?
Noah:  Playing with my blocks.....You know, mom, I'm not a baby.
Me:  I know, you're not a baby, but you'll always be my baby!
Noah:  I know.
Me:  I'll always call you "Baby".
Noah:  I know.
Me:  I'll even call you "Baby" when you're all grown up and have your own baby.
Noah:  I know.
Me:  You're ok with that?
Noah:  Yeah, I like being your baby.
Me:  I like you being my baby, too!
Then he gave me a big hug and a kiss and went back to building.  I love those kind of moments!

Sweet!
I love the book Love You Forever. I remind my kids often that they are never to big to be my babies and they seem to like to hear it. Cute Noah!
