  Actually, he might actually be... If I remember correctly from the shows I've seen on TLC, Discovery, etc., newborn babies don't see in depth, they merely see color at first. It takes a while (not sure HOW long, so maybe this kid just see's the colors still) before you can see change of depth, etc... So maybe it's REALLY a case of wanting breasts. Woot woot. You go, kid!
