uncle sp and aunty nixter

My sister-in-law has been having some mild contractions since 6am this morning and they have now started getting closer and closer together so they have headed off to the hospital. She was due on Sunday and we were in Canberra the whole weekend but NO baby. I said I thought she would have it on Tuesday so it looks like I might be right, I also guessed a 9lb baby boy (secretly hoping for a girl) so let's see if I get 3 out of 3. I am so excited to be an Aunt, it means SP and I are going to go down to Canberra again not this weekend but the one after which is a long weekend - WOO HOOT!!! Our plan was for her to have the baby this weekend but I guess that wasn't the babies or God's plan - anyhoo I am waiting by my phone to hear the news SP and I are an Uncle and Aunt - I can't wait.

That's so cool! Such exciting news! I am also very much looking forward to being an auntie some day, but my brother and sister-in-law appear to be dragging their heels... :-)

I remember being very excited about being an auntie for the first time. Now my niece and nephew live so far away. It's sad.

I became an aunt for the first time when I was 13. Now I am going to be a great-aunt...which sounds old. My hubby's oldest nephew is only 3 years older than I. Weird!
