Babies are gorgeous.
They’re tiny and sweet, with skin like butter and wildly excited and inquisitive eyes that want to get to the bottom of everything.
After nine months carrying and caring for a child, or even waiting for one of your best friends or family members to welcome their little bundle of joy into the world, it’s easy to fall head over heels in love with these tiny little beings.

Wails that make you question your own sanity and immediately shut down the idea of starting your own Van Trapp brood.
