It's a boy, not a lizard...

Bill Cosby once said that when a newborn baby comes out it looks like a lizard and often needs to be put back in to "cook more". This is what I expected when I went to the hospital to meet my newest nephew. Fortunately, Luke Apollo Hoppe neither looks like a lizard nor needs to cook longer. He's a pretty cute little guy


Granted, I did see a few pictures that Athena, my 10 year old niece who attended the birth ("I got to play with the placenta! It was slippery!") took when he first came out. He did look a little purple and slimy, but we must cut him a little slack. None of us ever looks our best when we first wake up.
