Welcome to the World!

I'm not sure what got in the water 9 months ago, but it seems like everyone around me is giving birth this week -- The Boy's sister,  J.,  just delivered a healthy, handsome boy and my good friend R. is giving birth any. minute. now.

It's pretty exciting for me since, as an only child, I was never really around babies or pregnant women. It's kind of like a magical, slightly gross, other world. I am DEFINITELY not ready to jump on the bandwagon any time soon, but it has been beautiful to see how excited J. and her husband are to add a second baby to their brood and how R. and her fiancee are being transformed by the idea that they're about to be parents.

So in celebration of these great parents and parents-to-be and their lovely tykes (one boy and one girl, how perfect!), here are some really ridiculously cute baby things:

Mobiles are like baby's first entree into the art world. It's a powerful first statement, right?

But, cute as they may be, these human babies will never be as cute as this baby sloth. Sorry.
