Is it just me or is everyone around here a comedian?

MISS POPULAR

I can barely hold my head up and already I've got a couple of bff's.



Wendy and Alanis threw me my first party. (True I was still in utero, but I partied hard just the same.) Since these two fine ladies threw me the shower to end all showers, it's only fitting that they would be among the first people I'd get to meet once I got here.

Now I just have to find out where they got that cake.

MY GRANDPARENTS

Most people have four grandparents. I hit the jackpot - I've got six. And every one of them thinks I'm a friggin' genius.

This here's Bob and Susan Gassman, otherwise known as "Bobo" and "Susu".













This is Christine Gassman. She goes by "Nana".


















This is Gail Stein. No, she doesn't go by "Gaga". She's old school, just wants to be called "Grandma".



















There's two more I've yet to meet: Nana's other half, Cliff Leeds ("Cliff-Cliff"?)... and then there's Walt Stein who I believe wants to be called "Mr. Stein".

MY FIRST PHOTO SHOOT

I think these are beautiful. And I'm not just saying that because I had no choice in the matter.

MY PARENTS

So it turns out that these people really are my parents.













I guess I could have done worse.
