Auntie T... :)~

Wow!... been awhile, huh....Time seems to be flying these days! Been planning a baby shower for my sista in-law with her Mom. The party is in a week and a half, so it is crunch time! Instead of typing here, I have been constantly updating the 75 person response list in an Excel spread sheet...and revising lists of what needs to be done...

Hmmmm.... You know, I don't think I ever blogged about finally becoming a real Auntie!
My best friend's kids do call me auntie, and my other brother Nate has 3 kids, but they live in Canada and have never even met them...

So, Kat and I were one of the first people John and Roo told. I had to keep it a secret for a couple of months from our very large extended family. Actually the day after they told me I had gone to my cousin's salon...AnnMarie's Hair on Madison....And as per usual, in the hour I was there I ran into at least 5 family members. My cousin Claire had asked me how my brother and Roo were doing, and if they were planning on having kids soon???...I can't believe I was able to keep a straight face... then again, I didn't really lie.... I said yes to her question about kids.....just didn't mention how soon.....Ha!

I can't wait for this precious child to make her way into this world. I can't wait to hold her and feed her and stare at her for hours with complete and total amazement...maybe even change a diaper or two...Ha!....and of course I can't wait to spoil the crap out of her. After all that IS what Aunties are for... Riiight!! :)~

Congrats on becoming an auntie (again!) I adore my nephew and niece... there are no words to express the amount of joy that those kids have brought into my life. Spoil her rotten!

I didn't even know you had another brother!

PS did you mean to tag this entry "root vegetables" or is that a code word for something? LOL

Yeah... we can't wait to spoil her rotten!

I have a brother Nate who has lived in Canada for the past 10 yrs. Haven't seen him and his family since he moved there. Miss him bunches!

Ha!...The "root vegetables" tag was supposed to be my sista in- law's name Roo...Ha!...
Good catch Jess!
