Squeaky Baby

This is a picture of mom and me when I was a new baby. When Mom went to the hospital to get me, she had a list of people to help out, but since I came early, no one was ready. Mimi was on the top of the list, but she was in Alabama. All of Mom's other friends were also out of town so Mom had to call Papa who was sailing that day. Papa said that since he was finished sailing, he would help out. Mom said he wasn't much help but did manage to stop talking long enough for me to show up.
Dr. Baker said I was a nice-sized baby, but I think I was small then. After I arrived, Mom was very hungry. The nurse brought her a sandwich and a piece of chocolate cake--she said it was my birthday cake.
