my cousin matthew is a very intelligent scientist but his wife is going to have a baby in 8 weeks and he is SO CLUELESS about babies. here, have some actual conversations?:
matthew: do you think we're going to need a car seat?
my auntie: um. you need one of those if you're going to drive the baby anywhere.
matthew: oh. the hospital's only a few blocks away so i thought we could just walk home with the baby.
my auntie: what if it rains?
matthew: i have an umbrella!
dad: matt, maybe you shouldn't buy a cot. maybe you should just use one of those cardboard boxes they use to transport bananas, those boxes have air holes and everything.
matthew: that's a great idea but i don't think i have any, maybe you could mail one to me?
matthew: is it okay to feed babies apple juice after a few weeks?
