a funny story about my oldest brother, big al (who is still 2 years younger than me) goes something like this. when my first child (presley) was born 15 YEARS AGO THIS MONTH, allan came to the hospital (he was 21 i think) bebopped into the room full of people, took one look at baby presley and said, “how long before she opens her eyes?”
the room exploded with laughter and simultaneously we yelled out, “she’s not a puppy!” followed by me expounding with “YOU IDIOT!”
needless to say, after every baby’s birth since then (mostly all mine), we remind him of his stupidity and reassure him that we’ll never let him live it down.
well, big al, you got your first pup. her eyes are open and everything. congrats, little brother.

My little brother said the SAME THING! But he was 30!
Cute, cute baby.
Look! She’s got her eyes open!
What a sweet family! I love babies too. When they’re not mine. Been there, done that.
