A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam's / Born on the Fourth of July
My nephew was born yesterday! I got to England at just the right time; they induced labor just before I got to the hospital.
Witnessing childbirth is a little unnerving but mostly just hugely fascinating. I still can't believe that I just saw a tiny little person entering the world for the very first time! Like whoa.
Real-life newborns don't look like newborns on TV. They're extremely purple, and their heads are way, way more conical than I ever imagined. Also, babies aren't like puppies or kittens; they can open their eyes right away! That was pretty cool.
Picture album here.
