My nephew was born less than a week ago! YAY! I am so happy, you can not even imagine!!! I don't plan on having my own kids, but I LOVE my nieces, and now my nephew!!!=D He was born 7 bounds 10 ounces!=P And he is so handsome! The picture the hospital took makes him look so handsome...because he is!=P I took a few (a lot=P) of pictures with my moms cellphone, they don't look as good. But you can still tell how cute he is! I will share my favorite picture of him with you... It's a picture I took while I was holding him. I got him to start laughing (at less than a day old!!!) And I got a picture of it!=P yay me! lol

Congrats on the newest edition to your family! I do have a child of my own, but there is still nothing like having a little niece or nephew. In my case, to which I am the closest to is one of my nephews and I recently moved to Arkansas from Iowa, putting 600 miles between us, and the only thing that really got to me when I finally left, was not being around my nephew! So I can imagine what a wonderful feeling it is to have a new little guy in your life!!! Have lot's of fun!! Spoil him rotten!!

Right now his mom pretty much keeps close tabs on him, obvisouly =P lol That must be hard being so far away from him! :( I can't imagine being that far from my nieces and nephew! :( but i know it'll probably happen someday!

Yea it is hard, but not just on me, on my son as well because him and my nephew were really close. But before I moved down here, my sister and I bought a set of webcams with built in voice, so that way we can let the boys see and talk to each other as if they were together. IT's not the same but it works for them and they are happy they get to, so that makes it easier on all of us.

Congratulations on being an Aunt again. I know for me, it was an awesome feeling. I actually have 3 nieces and 2 nephews. One of my nephews lives in Scotland, and is just over 6 months old, so I am not sure when and if I will ever see him. But I have seen the others from time to time, and it is a Great feeling knowing I am an Aunt and they have someone to look up too. Enjoy the time with your nephew as they grow up so fast. One of my nephews will be 16 on the 12th, and it is making me feel old.

Thank you! =P I see my nieces almost everyday. Once my oldest sister has to go back to school my mom is going to watch my nephew for her I think 4 days out of the week. So I'll see him often too! :)
