A few days ago Gavin wished me luck on the road to fatherhood by linking to his photoset of pictures of his newborn son, Oscar.

Is it possible to imagine a child more perfect?

Surely, even the least broody person in the world couldn't help but coo at Gavin's photos.

Aileen and I looked through the photos (cooing madly) and agreed that if our son-or-daughter--to-be comes anywhere near Oscar on the cute-o-meter we'll be very happy parents.
