I just wanted to share with everyone that I have been an aunt since 10:03am this morning. His name is Jonathan Daniel. 20 inches long and 7lbs, 20oz. :)

Sweet. Feels kinda weird, doesn't it? It wasn't until a few months after I married my wife that I realized that since her brother has a daughter, I was an uncle.

Heh

Im 26 , have a 25yr old sister , and a 21yr old brother , and the prospect of the lineage of this family being continued by any of us is enough to bring down a NATO Airstrike on this abode.

I have six sisters and two brothers (yes, Catholic - how did you guess?) and a few weeks ago one of my younger sisters gave birth to her first child, but my fourteenth niece/nephew.

My wife commented today that she became an instant aunt when she married me.

I have four cute cuddly little niece beasts. Two from my brother (poor kids), and two from my sister (cute little things).

There's nothing to match the feeling you get from unconditional baby love.

Same here. I was in the middle of E-mailing flickguy my picture and address when I realized my mistake.

God bless the beasts and the babies.

This is making me remember fun times with my uncle. I saw him very rarely, but when I did see him, my sister and I would climb all over him. He'd say, "I love my nieces to pices!". Then I'd say, "I love my uncle to skunkle!".

Then there was the time I jumped on his lap with my shoes on and he yelled, "My pecker!" and I demanded to know what a pecker was.

I need to stop reading so fast. I read...

I have four cute cuddly little nice breasts.

My eldest nephew turned eighteen in April - I was only nine when he was born. My youngest ...nephew? Damn, it was a few weeks back, and I can't remember if she had a boy or a girl... anyway, not yet a month old.

I don't know how my youngest sister thinks of our eldest nephew. You beat her, Obi - she was four when he was born. Like you, I think she condiers him to be like a cousin. To me, is a kind of like the little brother I never had. We have a family friend with fifteen kids, and the youngest ones have nephews and nieces who are older than them. What a whacky concept...

Condiers = 4am version of "considers".

I think it is time for bed.

I may not have any family, but I don't have precocious kids tapdancing on my nutsack and calling me "skunkle", either.

Bah! Humbug!
