      Beckett: Babies like to breathe, and they're good at hiding it. I put a pillow over a baby. I thought she wasn't breathing, but she was. She was sneaky, but I'll try again.

    Sweet and funny
    This is an enjoyable watch. It won't change your life, but it won't waste 2 hours of your life, either. Pretty humorous with some actual laugh out loud moments. Sentimental enough without being tissues-required. So, yeah, an enjoyable watch.
