Hmm?

Because you have that
nice clean soapy smell!

[sniff]

Or, maybe you smell

HARRY: [quack]

Hm!

Oh, hey, Harry!
It's Harry the Duck.

Hi. [quack]

Hi everyone! Quack, quack.
[giggles]

Hey, Harry!

Who's that?

Oh, that's Swannie Rivers.
The singing swan.

Swannie's my favorite
toy of all time.

Here, listen.

So, Harry what brings you
to the Big Blue House today?

Oh. Big news, Mr. Bear.

Oh, yeah, right.

Anyway, my mom's laid a new egg,

and we're waiting

Hi everyone! Guess what?

My Mom's laid an egg!

Oooooh.

Yes. And it's going
to hatch any minute now!

Wow!

So that means Harry's
going to have...

A little baby brother.

Or sister.

Yeah, that could happen, too.

Whoa... I never thought
of it that way...

Hey, that means
I'm gonna be a big brother!

[quack]

Or sister!

Um..

No.
I don't think it works that way.

Oh yeah.

Anyway, that's big news, Bear!

Big news!

Big news!

Yes, and that means we have
some phone calls to make.

[giggles]

My... this is some crowd
we've got here, isn't it.

Yeah, everyone's really excited,
about the new baby.

Uh.

You know,
everybody, I've been thinking...

maybe we should all go
back to the Big Blue House

and play for a while.

You too, Harry.

Cool!

Can I, Mama? Can I?

Okay, my darling...
go, go ahead.

Yay! Cool!

All right, Harry!

Maybe I should skedaddle
for a bit, too.

Bear, is it all right
if I come over to your house

and wait for the news?

Of course, Doc.

-That'd be... Great!
-Great!

Well thank you Bear,

I appreciate
your hospital-tality.

Heh-heh.

Okay.
Now listen there, little Mama,

you just give a good loud quack
if you need anything.

I’ll just be over
at the Big Blue House.

All right, Doc.
But I'll be just fine, I'm sure.

-Alright.
-See you later.

Bye, Bear.

Now, my little baby...

My, my, my,

there is nothing more exciting
than when a new baby comes.

That's right, Doc.

Hey, baby!

If your mom has a baby,

well the baby becomes
a new member of your family.

If the baby's a boy,
then you've got a new brother,

and if the baby's a girl,

-then you've got a new--
-A sister!

Yes, that's right, Bear.

New babies are really
exciting and a lot of fun,

but they are also a lot of work.

Oh, that's true too.

Hey! I've got a trunk full
of baby stuff up in the attic.

I bet Harry's mom
could really use them

for Harry's new baby sister,

-or bro--
-Or brother!

[chuckle]

I think that's
a egg-cellent idea bear.

You get it? Eggcellent?...

Only thing is,
I'm a lil' thirsty.

You wouldn't have anything
to drink around, would you?

Well, I think
I have some lemon--

Ade! I'd love some!

I'll go on up and start looking
through the attic, and you--

Get the lemonade?

Well... no...

I was gonna say "get the
glasses filled with some ice"

"and a nice lemon
slice for a garnish,"

but just plain old lemonade in
a dirty glass is fine, I guess.

-See you up in the attic.
-No, see

I thought you were gonna say...

okay, be right up.

[sighs]

Gosh, Harry, a new baby duck!

You, um, must be very excited,

you know, I mean to be
a big brother and all.

Yeah, I am.

Yeah, that's really
somethin' Harry.

A little baby duck.

Oh wow! Big brother Harry.

You're not nervous, are ya?

Nervous?

You know about being
all grown up and everything.

I bet you really have to be
grown up to be a big brother ha!

You know what I'm sayin'?

Boy, you're sure not
the baby anymore Harry!

Not the baby!

Well, uh, I never really--

And what about your toys?

My toys?

I heard the baby
gets all your toys.

What? [quack]

And they really eat a lot.

Eat, eat, eat, all day long.

Boy, if it's not nailed down,
they eat it!

That's what I heard, anyway.

-Really?
-And, and, babies,

take up everybody's time.

That's, um, what I heard.

That's right, they do.

Oh, yes, very true.
Very time-consuming.

Oh, oh! And probably,

your Mom won't have
as much time for you.

She's going to be
really really busy.

Um, isn't that right?

Oh, absolutely.

My own mother--?

'Baby, baby, baby,' Harry.

Huh, boy you better
get used to it,

because that's all you're
gonna hear from now on.

Baby, baby, baby.

See? It's startin' already.
Startin' already, Harry!

Really?

I don't think that
sounds right...

I just calls them
like I hears them, Harry.

Boy, anyway,
good luck with that.

Say who wants to
play in the Otter Pond?

-Yeah!
-All right! Let's go!

-Come on, Harry!
-Yeah, come on!

I'll be out in a while, maybe.

I've got some thinking to do,
I think.

Okay! See ya later!

Maybe I should ask
Mr. Bear about this.

What do you think, huh?

Well, lookie here.

Little Tutter's baby stroller.

They grow up so fast.

One day they're a teeny-tiny,
baby mouse,

and then you turn around
and they're... well...

still sort of tiny, I guess.

But growin' up,
and moving on to new things.

-Yessirree.
-HARRY [Quack]: Mr. Bear?

Mr. Bear?

Oh, hello, Harry.

Oh, hey, Mr. Doctor Hogg.

Just Doc would be fine, Harry.

Is there something
I can help you with?

Well, uh... actually...
I was looking for--

Bear?

He's down making some
lemonade at the moment...

if you can call it that.
[chuckle]

Well... maybe you can help me...

see, I was kinda thinking about
the new baby and all, and--

--and you wanted to give him
or her your toy?

My, that's certainly
a nice thing to do...

But, uh--

SWANNIE [sing]: ♪ Way down
upon the swannie river... ♪

Yeah, Harry,
the baby will really love this.

-Yeah, but see...
-Just love it!

You're going to be
some big brother, Harry...

some brother you'll be.

Yeah... okay.

"Oh, I heard the baby
gets all your toys..."

Do you think?

Nah… [laughs]

What's that, Harry?

Harry?

Hey, Doc, how's it going?

Oh, Bear just fine,
Bear, just fine.

I'm finding quite
a few useful items.

-Oh, that's good.
-Say, that lemonade looks good.

I must say,
I'm pleasantly surprised.

Oh, well, you know.

Hey, wait a second.

That looks like Swannie.

This is Harry's favorite toy.

Yes, and it was
the nicest thing.

He wanted to give
it for the baby.

Really?

Wow! That is nice of him,

but Swannie is pretty
important to Harry.

Doc, are you sure Harry
gave it to the baby?

Sure I'm sure...
he said so himself.

Or... at least
I thought he did...

[Doc blabbering]

Hmmm... uh huh,
I think I'll go find Harry.

Come on.

Hey... maybe Treelo
wants to play.

Yeah, that'd cheer me up...

Hey, Treelo,
wanna play up in the treetops?

Wah. Maybe later.

Okay.

Say, whatcha workin' on there?

It's a surprise.

A surprise? I love surprises!
What is it?

Don't look.

Okay.

Ta da!

Wow, it's the duck pond.

You like?

Like it? I think it's great!
Thanks a lot, Treelo.

No.

Drawing for the baby.

-Huh? The baby?
-Yeah, baby. Baby baby.

Oh, right.

For the baby.

'Baby, baby, baby.'

'You better get used to it'

'Cause that's all you're
gonna hear from now on...'

Wow. It's all coming true.

Huh?

Oh, never mind.

Okay.

Hey, maybe I'll go
see my mama at the barn.

Yeah, that's what I'll do.

Mama won't be too busy for me.

Here ya go, little mama.

Oh, this oughta get you started.

Oh, thank you Doc.

Mama!

Mama! Mama! Mama!

Ah, my leetle Harry.

Mama! What're ya doin?

Mostly sitting, dear...

That's right,
Harry, lots and lots of sittin'.

What can I do for you, dear?

Mama, I just wanted
to see you for a minute...

Oh my goodness,
something's happening!

Something's happening, I think!

Oh, my! I'd better take a look.

I'm sorry little fella,

I just need to look
at your mama for a minute.

-The baby, ya know, the baby!
-Sure, okay.

Harry, I'm sorry, darling.
We'll talk later, okay?

Oh,
sure, I guess I could do that.

"Your Mom won't have
as much time for you."

Gosh, I guess those
guys mere right.

Everything they said
seems to be coming true.

When the baby comes,

everything's going
to be different.

[quack]

Harry, here you are.

I've been looking for you.

Uhm, I think you left
something in the attic.

Swannie!

Oh Swannie, but...

I thought...
the baby got all my toys.

What?

Where would you ever
get an idea like that?

Well... Ojo and
Pip and Pop and Tutter

they all said I had
to be a big duck now...

you know, on account
of having a new baby brother

or sister and all...

[sigh]

Harry, you are getting bigger.

-That part is true.
-Yeah.

But only a little each day.

And just because your
Mom is having a baby now,

doesn't mean you have
to stop being her baby.

Really?

You mean,
she'll still have time for me?

Oh of course.

In fact,
I'll bet she would love it

if you would help
with the new baby.

You know, a little duck

"the might and need
to be shown ropes."

You mean like paddling

and flapping
and quacking and stuff?

-Sure...
-'Cause... I'm a good quacker.

Listen: Quack!

[chuckle]

That was good!

You know,
I'm feeling a little better now.

All thanks to um "Mr. Bear."

Oh, don't mention it, Harry.

And really it's just Bear.

Come on,
we have to get to the barn.

It's almost time
four the big event.

Yeah, yeah. Come on, Swannie.

You come too. Come on!

Oh, my leetle Harry,
where have you been?

Well, Harry was off thinking.

He kinda got the impression that

he needs to grow
really fast right now,

because he was going
to be a big brother and all.

Aw, you poor little quacked...

How'd you ever get such an idea?

Oh, Harry? Is this true?

Yeah.

Oh, my little boobala,
don't worry.

Bear, maybe we should leave
these two alone for a minute.

Oh good idea.

Oh, that reminds me.

You know Harry,
I may have to pay

special attention
to the baby for a while,

but that doesn't mean
I love you any less,

or you stop being my baby.

-Really?
-Really. Of course.

And don't you dare
grow up too fast.

I love you so much
just as you are.

I think you're the perfect
size for a big brother, Harry.

Really?

Definitely, my little cabbage.

Well...

It's a baby girl!

-Oh!
-Oh, my goodness!

Come closer Harry,
and meet your little sister.

I think that
I'll call her Hallie.

Short for Hallinska.

That was the name
of my dear babushka.

Is it a baby yet?

Can we come in?

Sure, sure...
just try to be quiet now...

Wow... she's so... itty-bitty.

Hey Hallie... can you say...

[quack?]

Quack!

[laugh]

Good Hallie, good.
Hey mom, did you see that?

I taught her! I taught her!

Oh, Harry, I'm so proud of you.

I know you're going to be such
a big help with little Hallie.

Here, what would I ever
do without you, my little babka.

Come give mommy a kiss!

Yaaaaaayy!

Wow! Wasn't it exciting to
see little Hallie hatch today?

I bet Luna will want
to hear all about it.

Come on.

Ah, hello Luna.

Hello, Bear.

And how was your day, today?

Oh, it was quite a day, Luna.

Harry's mom laid a new egg.

Uhh.

But he got worried that

he needed to grow up
fast to be a big brother.

Oh, my, what happened?

Well, he learned that,
now that his mom has a new baby,

things will be
a little different,

but he's just the right
size now to be a big brother.

Well, it can be hard
for the little ones

when things change in a family,

but it's important
to remember that

change is what makes
life interesting and fun.

It sure does.

-Say, Luna--
-Uhm...

Speaking of
'interesting and fun'...

Yes, Bear?

Would you sing
the Goodbye Song with me?

I'd love to, Bear.
