EuroLIfe: Day 259 (Babyblog: Day 1)

Little Peanut (the poor little worm)

After showing me my baby this morning, the nurse looked at him lying there red, blue, and naked, and said, "the poor little worm." She said it in a sweet tone of voice. I can only assume that this doesn't sound nearly as bad in German as it does in English. He did, in fact, look something like a worm at first. However, Dolores and I decided that "little peanut" is a far better nickname. Here he is, David Josiah Morris, doing his best peanut imitation



He got better looking as the day went on, leaving all resemblances of a worm behind.

He looks adorable like a "cute little peanut".
A good recovery and as much sleep as you can get during the next weeks.
