In September, the actress opened up to PEOPLE about the unbreakable bond the two siblings share, despite her worry over their 6 ½ year age gap.

"I was always wondering with the age difference if it was going to be easy to connect, or a little bit more challenging to connect," she said of her firstborn. "But they really connected right off the bat and she adores him. He idolizes her."

"They're just a lot of fun together," added Dewan. "And she plays with him, she's good helping me with him. They love sharing each other's food. I mean, they're just constantly together and it's adorable."

The bond between the siblings is so tight, Dewan said little Callum's first word wasn't 'mama' or 'dada' but a form of his big sister's name.

"The first word he said — before 'mama,' before 'dada' — was Evie. His first word he started saying was a version of Evie," revealed Dewan. "And trust me, that is something she'll tell anyone and everyone that she sees. She is very proud of this moment. I loved it too. I was so happy."
