It's official I'm an Uncle

Sign in to disble this ad
Born 10:31 am this morning. A baby boy.

Mother is doing fine (I guess haven't called don't know her cell)

Father (My older brother) is stuck in Kansas due to car troubles and sadly missed the birth of his child.

I don't know my nephews name or how much he weighed but, I suppose it's Oliver as they threw around that name for a good 6 months.

But, hopefully he'll get up there and see him by the end of the day.

That is all.

Congrats! The best part of being an uncle is when you tire of them, you can give them back. Stinky diaper? "Uh, I think this is yours..."

One great thing about being an uncle is that you get to tell them all the great pranks they can pull on their parents and siblings.

Just attended my nephew's 17 birthday party last weekend.

clichéd as this sounds, it happened (him growing up) so fast I wonder where the time went.

My brother is a guitar player, but his kid is a drummer (a very good one), so it's all good.

Thanks again for all the advice and kind words he just went home today.

His name for sure is Oliver.
