If I'm over excited tonight ...

[snapper_37]

It's because I'm expecting news of a newborn nephew at anytime.....

Plus I'm being allowed wine AND curry as a treat to celebrate.

 

[snapper_37]

Great news, as an Uncle to two Nieces.

I can't wait.

Already got a niece out of them so lovely to have a boy. Only trouble is they live in the US so don't get to see them often!!!

Congrats!!!

 

[Crackle]

Do you know it's a boy? Exciting stuff though. Not sure Curry AND wine is a good idea though.

 

[snapper_37]

Unfortunately we do know it's a boy but there you go. At least the Bro is keeping the name secret If ever it's an american thing like 'Brad'

Errr wine and curry goes down very nicely thank you.

I'm more excited for me mom and dad - carries on the name and all that, bless.

oooh, how exciting. Any news?

And the name thing - even if they've decided, it may not turn out. I was definitely going to be Claire for a girl, or Oliver for a boy. Mum took one look at me and decided I was a Susannah.

Jeez, Snapper...

I really hope the lack of news is because you were celebrating so hard last night that you are unable to stand upright, let alone log on...

News, we need news....

 

[snapper_37]

Sorry, sorry, I have news.

Daniel James born at 1.38 a.m. our time, 7lb 10. Got no pics yet as the brother is obviously kipping! Mother and baby doing well so that's the main thing.

Have been calming down the excited Nan and getting some lickle baby clothes in...

Oooh the turkey baster gets more and more tempting

Off to the pub to wet the baby's head now.

Thanks guys!

Hoorah! Champers and excitement all round!

Daniel James is a good name. My nephew (the one, the only, the adored) is Oliver James.

How soon will you manage to meet him (you said they are in the US?)?

Turkey baster, reminds me of the odd dream I had last night.. One for a thread of it's own, I think...

Oooeerrr - you start it then Arch.

I don't know when we will meet. I have a fear of flying and it took 3 valium and a few drinks just to get me to Cyprus last year.

Perhaps I will try hypnotherapy or something because it is quite sad. He has lived there for 9 years and I have never been.

Saying that. the brother does a lot of travelling in his job so I am sure they will be over at some point. His wife is local to here too so she has family who will want a munch.

I'm speechless. How can the birth of a nephew suddenly make you want to go cook a roast....?

I call that plain weird...

Or did I miss something.?...

Congrats Auntie Snapper.. ha ha ha
