Brother and new SIL (married in early June) already in a family way. :-)
Bro just sent me a link to indicate he's already thinking hard about raising this kid right...

Lemme tell ya. That's a load of my mind. :p

Congratulations. Just remember, all kids (whether yours or not) eventually grow up and kick you in the slats. It's the nature of the little beasts.
(I became an uncle at the tender age of seven)

Congrats RS! I have three nephews and I love the little boogers. :) They're a joy and you aren't responsible for raising them.

Music to my ears. :lmao: I've been "Uncle" to my best friends niece, now 4, since she was 2. It's great to get all the love and fun and none of the responsibility, LOL.
Update: Wedding pictures...
(informalish State Park affair, pastor was a long time family friend)

You can see why the baby came so soon. :uhsure: Early June wedding, early February due date! :naughty:

Congrats!

I love being an aunt. Like Mia said, when they get unruly or need a change, it's nice to be able to pass them back to mom and dad. :-)
-
Wow, they didn't waste anytime at all!
Congratulations, Uncle. :cheersmate:

It was a big joke in my family how my aunt and uncle were married on March 26, 1949, and my aunt delivered their first child December 29, 1949.

Congratulations, Rearden. :)
I love being an aunt, and as others have said, you can spoil your nieces/nephews, but the responsibility to take care of them remains with the parents. :-) (Although, I certainly wouldn't mind watching Charlie for a few days ).
My brother-in-law has been pouting ever since I bought Charlie a shirt that says "Don't Look At Me, That Smell Is Coming from Daddy." :lmao: Sis thinks the shirt is hilarious.

And most especially, when they were younger, I bought the loudest most annoying toys, Chicken Dance Elmo for instance.
I can never have children now, they will totally take their revenge on me.

Thanks all. At this early stage it's just fingers crossed for a happy healthy kid. Then the spoiling begins.
I know refer to my friends kid (lovingly) as my "practice niece". As for annoying gifts, I could be in for it myself one day as I bought little Emma a chia pet, bird house (build yourself) and birdseed as well as an Alvin and the Chipmonks movie CD. :-) :-)

Well I have my own funny story. My husband and I had been married for 8 years when I had business in San Francisco and invited him to come with me. Needless to say with two children at home and now being child-free, we rarely left the hotel room for 2 days. :evillaugh:
Anyway, this was around St. Patty's day of 1998, Sophia was born by scheduled c-section on December 3. :uhsure: They usually take them 1-2 weeks early.
My husband felt used and abused, he felt like he was tricked into the third child... against his will, kicking and screaming all the way. :lmao:

Well, you know men. We think you women go in the bathroom and get pregnant sometime after we fall asleep. It's always an underhanded plot.

My husband always complained about the lack of practice time. :-)

Pffpt! Mr. Belle told me we could have a child. We've been practicing for almost 10 years now. A lot! I found out that he had a vasectomy.
*okay, I knew that all along. We just like to joke with people about that. :-)
Congrats RS!!! You'll be a great uncle.
