Hello all,
At 2pm on Thursday October 16,2008 my amazing cousin Laura gave birth to the most lovely little girl I have ever seen.
At 5:30 am I received an email from Laura, we were to go see The Duchess with Kira (needs to eat a sandwich) Knightly. Movie’s at 4:35pm I’ll meet you there she said. That day I had left my phone at home so I figured I would just meet her at the movie… We can all see where this is going.. note the time we were supposed to see the movie and the time she gave birth…
Yes after waiting for 20 mins.. buying a ticket… walking up and down the isles to find my very pregnant cousin I went home…
And found 1 call from her, 5 calls from her husband, 1 from her mom ( My Aunt Paula) and then 1 from my mom. I figured something must be up! I finally got to her and my poor Laura looked tired, beautiful but, tired. I love her and love my new baby …okay not niece, umm second cousin… I know, I know..not the most closely related in the genetic line but something in me loves her. She has lovely, long toes and didn’t wake up the whole time I was their but, none the less.. I love her. I’m amazed that she was once a clump of cells, she was one germ cells ( egg and sperm) and now my darling Laura has created, with the help of Andy, a little creature…. This is why I love reproduction… how perfect is the creation of a life.. a little thing with toe nails and hair… AHHH 
Don’t get me wrong.. I have NO desire to house one of those little parasites in my womb.. I will not be pushing ANYTHING out of my special place! I heard about all of the horrible things that can happen and did happen… and ACK I mean it’s wrong… but now I have both Avery Ellen and Olivia Claire ( my dearest friend Abby’s baby) and I can play with them.
Well enough about babies…
They are funny little alien looking things with very big heads and little chins. They get gas, have yellow poop, and spend most of their time latched on to a boob! They’re just like the men I date HA!
Welcome to the world my new little friends!
