radegundWe met a three-month-old person yesterday evening, who was ridiculously cute even when nonchalantly emitting long streams of ecru vomit. I even got to hold him for a bit - and he forbore to throw up on me, which further raised his stock in my eyes. Hefty, he was, too - I see well-developed biceps in my future.
