The cutest part of newborns? It is undeniably their feet. So small (as everything on newborns tends to be), soft, and adorable. I don't know anyone (female) who is not enamored by the feet of an infant. I did try to confirm that many people believe this by using Google (as many of us would), but when I typed in my question I got a somewhat disturbing suggestion, so I decided to just stop searching before I was scarred for life. Yes, that is an undoctored screen shot and yes, it made me go "WTF?" too.
Annnnyway....I still think the cutest part of a baby is their feet. My favorite part about them is the Plantar Grasp reflex. "This reflex occurs when you stroke the sole of your baby's foot, his toes will spread open and the foot will turn slightly inward. It is also known as the Babinski reflex. This reflex is fun to watch. By the end of the first year this reflex is usually gone," (from about.com). I am pretty sure I have tortured quite a few infants by constantly stroking their feet just to watch them react. Its. So. Damn. Cute!
Because this topic is hard to expand on and Google freaked me out a little with their "Did you mean:" stunt, here are some pictures of little toes and feet to make you go "Awww. They're so tiny!"
