No kidding, that kid doesn't look newborn! Idris is way too formed-looking (and handsome). He just skipped right over the whole Winston Churchill phase, didn't he?

That's six hours old. apparently he was purple when he came out, but has faded to a normal color. However, he has a HYOOGE testical sac that has maintained its purple hue.

Wow. It took Lillian MONTHS to get that big.

he has our nose. and unfortunately, our huge flat feet :)

That is a perfectly-sized young man. And handsome!

Congratulations, CaBil!

Jilli, want to bring that hatpin over here? This finger needs to be lanced, I'm chicken to do it myself, and DH has gone to bed to rest up for his MRI at 7:45 tomorrow morning.

Ah, I'll woman up, find a bullet to bite on and do it myself before I go to bed.

Oh, Bev. I hate that! I bite my nails and have ragged cuticles. I've had infections more than once.

Vortex, I'll track you down and see what's up on flickr.

And I'll try the thread trick on that pesky tag.

Ack. Can't see bruiser. Vortex, I'm Bchas in flickr.

The bruiser could be *me* - I was 10lbs 12oz at birth. Stayed a spherical child until I was 2 - ash-blond hair, bright blue eyes, 2 feet tall, 2 feet around. The family called me "GusGus" after the fat mouse from "Cinderella".

Then I abruptly got taller, but gained no weight, and remained a 4-foot-tall stringbean until highschool.

I'm a mutant. (And happily so.)

My mom still boggles at me being such a GINORMOUS baby. (Her first; my younger sister was half my size. Mom was Relieved(TM).)

Congratulations on aunt-hood.

Jilli is a tool-using goth EXCEPT for the arc-welder. NO. rolled up newspaper NO.

I wanna see Idris! I'm truejavachik on Flickr.

Oooooh, arc-welders...

Polter-Cow on Flickr, naturally. My curiosity is piqued!
