Plot
Peppa, George, Mummy Pig and Daddy Pig are going to see Cousin Chloe and their new baby cousin, Baby Alexander. Peppa and George try to play with Baby Alexander with their own respective toys (Mr. Dinosaur and a ball), but Mummy Pig explains that the baby is too little to play with the toys (as the baby can be seen crying). Peppa asks what the baby does instead of playing, in which Cousin Chloe says, "it eats and it sleeps". Then the baby burps, in which Chloe responds, "and it does that".
Peppa asks if she can hold the baby, which Auntie Pig says yes, and tells her that if she is very careful, she can hold Alexander. Peppa does not know yet who Alexander is and is puzzled for a moment until Auntie Pig tells her that the baby is called Alexander. Peppa then admits that he is quite nice, and he coos happily at her. Baby Alexander's face turns red when Peppa smells something in the air. Auntie Pig says that maybe Alexander's nappy needs changing. Peppa is then disgusted, but Daddy Pig comes up to her and said "Peppa, when you were a baby, you wore nappies". Peppa yells at him, claiming she did not. Then Mummy Pig, Daddy Pig, Uncle Pig and Auntie Pig laugh at Peppa. Peppa, George, and Chloe then want to play.
Chloe asks her mum if she could play with Peppa and George in the garden, and her mum says yes. They went outside and then bounce the ball down the hill and go up another, as they stop when they reach a colourful shed. Peppa then asks if it's nice having a baby brother, to which Chloe says yes. Then Peppa says she wishes George was a baby piggy and Chloe gets out a pram from the shed. George disagrees with the idea. Then Peppa and Chloe successfully convince George to be a baby by (Peppa) promising him she will be nice to him forever and let him play with all her toys and (Chloe) saying that George can play with all her toys.
George then gets in the pram and pretends to be a baby piggy. Then Candy Cat, Suzy Sheep, Rebecca Rabbit and Zoë Zebra come to play. Suzy asks why George is in the doll's pram. Then Peppa responds by saying that it isn't George, but a baby piggy. Their friends then ask if it is a boy or a girl. Chloe says he is a girl, but George does not want to be a girl, so Peppa agrees that he is a boy.
Suzy Sheep then has some cookies and offers George one, but Peppa says that he can't eat cookies. George cries because he likes cookies. Chloe then says that he can have one cookie. George happily eats it. Then the parents come with Baby Alexander, and everyone goes to him. George is then left alone and after Candy Cat says that Baby Alexander is "much sweeter than George", causing him to cry. Mummy Pig comes to George and says that he will always be her baby piggy. George then plays with his dinosaur to scare and chase Peppa, Chloe and their friends.

Trivia
- This is the first time when Baby Alexander cries, as that's also his first appearance.
- This is the first episode in the episode in the series to feature a baby.
- When Peppa says that Baby Alexander is quite nice, even though he is a boy, he happily says "Goo goo goo" afterward, meaning that he likes her.
- This is the last episode featuring Alison Snowden in the animated series as a whole. Beginning with Season 3, Auntie Pig is voiced by Judy Flynn.
Goofs
- In this episode, Alexander has a completely different cry; a high-pitched version of Richard Rabbit’s cry. After listening to the cries closely, they realized they should’ve searched for an actor for Alexander instead of lazily using Richard’s actor. Alexander’s correct cry is first heard in "Baby Alexander".
- In this episode, Peppa simply replies “I did not” to Daddy Pig reminding her she wore nappies while she was a baby. In "The Olden Days", Peppa said she wasn’t a baby.
- When Chloe brings out a pram from the shed, in the next shot, the flag disappears.
- When the Peppa family meets the Chloe family, George's eyes are wonky.
- When the Peppa family have got out of the car, the car did a little stutter.
