This morning at 6:40 a.m. I received a phone call from my brother telling me that their baby was just born. A boy. It’s the first grandchild on both sides. Also, I’m an aunt for the very first time.
The whole family is so thrilled and excited. I walked around giddy and smiling all day long.
-The delivery was as perfect as one could ask for.
-We discussed nicknames. His initials are D.R.W. With the D and R it’s like Dr., my sister and Matt were saying it would be cute to call him Doc. My dad said that his father’s childhood nickname was also Doc.
-My dad was recalling the day I was born, he left the hospital and it was a foggy morning. Well, today was also a very foggy morning.
-I went over to my brother and SILs to take their dog out for a walk. When I was leaving I noticed a bright red cardinal fly right in front of me and land in the neighbor’s tree. I always like to think cardinals are a good luck sign.
I’m so happy for my brother and SIL, and I can’t wait to spend time with this new little person, watch him grow and see who he becomes.
Congratulations on becoming an aunt!! How exciting…I am truly looking forward to the day I become one as well. “Doc” is precious!
Congrats! Being an aunt is a great gig!
Congrats, Robyn! That is so exciting!!
Congrats!!!! Your little nephew is so adorable :)
Isn’t being an aunt so fantastic?! Welcome to the club.
Although, if there is a club we probably need a secret handshake and logo for our Aunts-Only Jackets.
