On Saturday July 17, 2010 at 5:17pm I became an Aunt!!! Now you may be thinking "Wow thats great!" but you may not understand just HOW great it really is!!!

I am an only child and I was blessed to be able to live right next door to my aunt, uncle and two cousins (us kids were just 3 years apart, me being the oldest) so growing up I never really felt like an only child because I always had someone to play with right next door. And the best part was if I didn't want to play anymore then I could just go home and have my own space. hehe So I really had the best of both worlds! But as I got older I came to the realization that I was never going to be that "cool aunt". I was very close to my aunt and uncle and I wanted to have a family of my own with those same kind of relationships where my mom and aunt were close and the whole family would take trips everywhere and I ALWAYS had my cousins to count on. Well lucky for me I found my wonderful husband who is one of 3 kids and guess what.......yep, I'M AN AUNT!!!!! My sister-in-law and her husband welcomed a beautiful baby girl on Saturday and I was lucky enough to be there for it! I'm so happy for them and it's the first grandbaby for my in-laws so it's a BIG DEAL!

Congratulations to the new parents and beautiful baby girl! She definately made a dramatic entrance and I'm sure it's just a hint of whats to come! I can't wait till she can say "Aunt Courtney" (after mommy and daddy of course) and I'm happy to babysit anytime! hehe I know my family and theirs are very close with aunts, uncles and cousins and we cherish those relationships! I can't wait to see how our relationship will grow!
