don't you get the feeling he's missing having a little one at home? He sure looks like he enjoys them.

Any chance I can get copies of those photos for Nathan's baby book? I was busy snapping poor quality ones with my iphone. Those are amazing shots!

Your sweetie pie is SO SO SO cute! And from these pictures it's pretty clear that we DUers aren't the only ones who think so!

Welcome to DU!

Edited to add: Isn't it remarkable that Nathan was so smiley with a stranger? As I recall from my own kids, he's at an age when being held by strangers isn't necessarily a happy thing. Guess that says something about the touch that Obama has with babies, as well as something about Nathan's feeling secure and safe in the world in general. A great characteristic for both of them!

President and Baby Nathan.

And you just know if there were no cameras around President Obama would still hug and kiss Nathan.

I just love it.

I can't help but believe there's something that infants perceive that we've all-but-forgotten how to see. Obama's got it. No doubt about it. Love.

And I normally tend to agree with W.C. Fields:

I like children. If they're properly cooked.

Madam, there's no such thing as a tough child -- if you parboil them first for seven hours, they always come out tender.

They are also very good with mustard.


This time, I make an exception.

Straight or gay, rich or poor, man or woman. They only care that you love them and in turn they will love you too.
