Are you ready for the Grand Unveiling!? OK, I’m willing to bet that unless you work here or have visited our offices recently you haven’t been anticipating this at all, but lemmetellya: We here at 7135 Germs have been either working on these or waiting to post them for months. It started as a goofy gift from my brother and his fiancée at our baby shower. They gave us 35 tear-off sheets of paper with bald baby heads printed on them from the good folks at the Wry Baby company. It’s easy. All you have to do is quickly doodle some hair on the baby. So I set it as our next white board project, and it nearly took over the office. We started out light and fun, but it quickly turned into a competition, and as our supplies dwindled we started hoarding sheets, and calling dibs on different ideas. ‘Pirate’ was one that we all called at one point but no one ever actually did. Huh.

The rules were:

• Everyone has to do at least one.
• I you start it you finish and post it.
• Do whatever you want on the paper.
• You have to name the baby.
• You must draw a free-hand frame or mounting around for each post.

We finished them shortly after Lyra was born but, dang if I never found a spare ten minutes after that to post these. And now it’s a new year, and I really can’t delay any longer. These heads crack me up and I need the world to see them, or at least the very small slice of the world who reads our blog. Below is an image of all of them all mashed up.
