Goku peers over the rail of the crib tentatively. Chichi is taking a much-needed nap in the other room, and Gyumao ran out to buy groceries, leaving Goku alone with his week-old son.
"Son Gohan," Goku says. "That's you!"
The baby coos at the sound of his name. Goku's glad they had a boy, because he didn't know what he would have called the baby otherwise. Chichi had already gotten kind of testy about his lack of suggestions until the four-star ball inspired him to try his grandpa's name.
Before Gohan was born, Chichi told Goku that babies do little more than eat, poop, sleep, repeat. Based on that, Goku expected to be bored by this small creature with no fine motor skills, but Gohan's eyes are already so alert. He does sleep a lot (never when his mother wishes he would, of course), but anytime he is awake, his eyes dart about, taking in every inch of his surroundings. Goku can't help but follow Gohan's gaze, entranced by his son's fascination with the world around him. So far, nothing is boring to Gohan.
Chichi has already made clear her intentions for the boy — "NO TRAINING!" — which is disappointing, but Goku will have to learn to live with it. Witnessing the infant's curiosity makes Goku excited for other things, though. If Gohan thinks the world inside their house is this interesting, just wait until he sees what's in the woods!
That day may be a ways off, however. The baby is so tiny, Goku marvels. He's not entirely convinced the boy won't break if he has to pick him up. Every time he's held Gohan, it's been from Chichi thrusting the baby into Goku's arms. He supposes it's a good thing at least one of them has some confidence in handling their child.
Goku relaxes just a little bit seeing how calm and happy Gohan seems lying in the crib. He rests his arm on the rail and wiggles his finger in front of the baby. Gohan's tiny tail ("See, Chichi? It can't be that weird if he has one, too!") curls around his finger with a surprisingly secure grip. Goku exhales the breath he hadn't realized he was holding. Tiny, yes, but perhaps not so fragile after all.
