Is our baby a Hutt?

As everyone knows, the Hutts are gangsters that are the tough guys on the planet Tatooine. Jabba featured prominently in some Star Wars adventures, until Princess Leia strangled him (unlike Pizza the Hut, who was trapped in his own limousine and ate himself to death).



It has come to my attention that when he cries really forcefully, Owen looks a little bit like Jabba. Notice the tongue sort of floating in the middle of the mouth, and the strange Hutt gangster sign he is making. It almost looks like a Hutt salute or some kind of secret handshake. I don't know how my son became associated with the Hutts at such a young age -- I am thinking of suing the hospital where he was born.

That is hilarious!!!! At least baby owen is not a jawa, or a furry ewok. I mean, Hutts have phat rides, pimped out desert palaces, and hang out with cool aliens.

Katherine is a little Huttish (is that word? it is now!) when she cries too. Her tongue floats in the middle of her mouth, and she keeps us chained to her - not literally but figuratively.
