I'm gonna be a great-uncle next month!
And ginbarn's going to be a great-aunt!

Our niece's due date is November 15. We just had a baby shower for her yesterday. And yes, they are hoping to raise the boy as a Democrat!

3. Thanks!
We're excited. We got the parents a five-pack of onesies and a nighttime dual bottle warmer to help out the new mom.

4. That's cool.

Every baby needs a good family support system and it looks like this baby is going to have a great one !

Edited to say : I think babies wearing onesies and socks are so cute. Especially when they are at the cute as a plump stage.

7. Thanks! You know what comes after that, don't you?
If my brother and his wife decide to have a child of their own, I go straight through uncle phase once again. Crazy Uncle Derby coming through!

:woohoo:

8. ginbarn keeps calling her sister "Grandma"
"Grandma" responds as thus: "Oh yeah? Well, you're going to be a great-aunt!"

ginbarn: "Of course I'm a great aunt! Is that all you got?"

:rofl:
