Awe she's so cute
Isn't he precious
Awe do you have a boo boo on your tuddly tush
Ok so that last one might not be as common, but these are all things you hear when a baby or toddler enters a room. It seems like women just melt over these tiny, miniature versions of themselves. The lose all semblance of maturity, and start talking gibberish. I mean what does "Gha Ha" mean anyways? It certainly is not in any oxford dictionary I ever saw. I have never felt the desire to coo and cuddle a baby. It was a learning experience to be with my niece and nephews during this phase of their life. I was very happy when they became old enough to play tag.
This is the age I love. Their youthful endurance is inspiring. When they smile because their having fun playing with their aunt makes is far more understandable and rewarding then when they smile cause they just flashed their belly.
I do like babies. They are cute, usually, and pretty simple. Food, Sleep, Poop, Food. That's a life I understand. Simple. Clear. What I don't understand is the reaction of most women to their presence. My reaction is to hold them, tickle them, but funny faces and high pitch voices are not natural for me. Maybe this would change if I had a kid, but I can't imagine that.

"Tuddly tush"? That's a good one. I'm glad you're not a goo-goo-ga-er.
