Most boy clothes for babies is navy blue or gray pants, with the rainbow of blue and gray broken only by occasional red, green, or orange. Also, baby clothing companies decided stripes for boys and polka dots for girls, in general. But if you ignore all that, then you don't have to miss out on outfits like this.

"Uncle Fif: -holding my son-
Mommy: So if he cheeses on you, I've got a napkin here.
Uncle Fif: Cheeses? What is that? I don't know what that is.
Mommy: Well you know how he drinks milk all day. It's all he eats.
Uncle Fif: Yes...
Mommy: Well sometimes when he is burpy he brings up curds and whey.
Uncle Fif: I cannot deal with that."
