Cuddle

A pair of our friends adopted a baby and he became one month old yesterday. Baby pictures galore on FB. Of course, I showed Austin the latest round of snapshots of their new little fella. And he just stared.

Austin: I'm just not into babies.

Me: Me either, but he is cute.

Austin: I just don’t want to laugh at him, because my friends won’t understand. I mean, I think babies look funny. I think baby X looks like a horned narwhal.

Me: He doesn't look like a horned narwhal.

Austin: I don't think babies are cute. I think lizards are cute. And octopus, with their cute little mouths. And cuttlefish! Cuttlefish are cute. That's why they're called cuddle fish.
