My sister is having a baby.
I've known for a while now that she's having a baby, but today it finally became real. When I saw the evidence.
This is no blob. This is a baby.
My wee sis. Pregnant.
I'm going to be an auntie (or maybe an uncle - don't know what model it is yet).
This blows my mind.
There is nothing like being an aunt to make you feel old. It terrified me the other day to realise that my oldest nephew is now 17 years old.
Congrats to your sister!
How can you be an uncle if you're a woman?
Pass my congratulations on to your sister Pix.
Uncle or Auntie, who cares, it's the wee one that is important
I had the same reaction when my brother called up and told me I was going to be an aunt.
I just kept thinking "Dude, you're not supposed to be having babies! You are still five! Stop it stop it stop it!"
Stick to Aunt and don't confuse the issue!!!! The first picture of my first Grandsoul. I am just so looking forward to knowing whether it is a boy or a girl and a safe delivery.
Congratulations.
I still find it wierd that my little brother can get cards on Fathers Day. I'm sure his daughters keep him out of mischief though.
Fab news indeed. Best of wishes to your wee sis.
Lord knows what I'd be thinking if MY wee sis got pregnant (mind you, she'd need a boyfriend first).
And... sorry.. why would you be an uncle? Have I missed something? Are all those photos of you fake! (not THOSE ones... the ones you publish.. ;-) )
Duh, all these apparently intelligent people who don't get the "or uncle" joke - it fell flat for us a few times as well.
Congrats!
WOOHOO!!!
wow!!! I can remember Joy when she wasn't all that much bigger!
Give her my love

Congratulations to your sister! Ooh, I suppose lots of baby knitting is up next.
Hello You probably dont remember me - I was only a baby last time you saw me- I'm 11 now- but this is seriously COOL Say well done to your wee sis. It's well cute
Thanks for all your comments. It wasn't real for me either until I saw it on the screen during the scan.
I really don't feel old enough to be married, mortgaged and having a baby but I guess you never do.
Here's hoping for an easy next 6 months and hopefully a nice cool summer.
Thanks again,
J
Babies rule.
(And they rule with an unforgiving and iron fist. Sleep deprivation is a torture technique, you know.)
Babies also rock.
WOW Auntie Ann!!!
You'll be an Auntie regardless of the brnd of baby, first time I've heard of a 'sympathy' baby brain, I think you must be excited. Also an excellent knitting opportunity :-D
