The weekend


I finally got to meet my niece last weekend. She is 9 months old. I am a horrible aunt! My niece was born merely two days after I got married last year. My sister-in-law understandably was not present at my wedding since they live in San Francisco. My brother was brave and came to my wedding. He was in Houston for less than 24 hours... it was a good thing he didn't hang around because his wife went into labor about 2 or 3 hours after he got back to SF (she was a week or two early!)

Since that time I have been trying to make it to see them. There was honeymoon, then holidays, then job changes and MBA classes for the hubby. We cannot seem to find the time sadly. My brother was kind enough to travel to Houston for me instead. This pleased my parents since they cannot possibly get enough of their first grandbaby.

So... everyone came to my house. I may have mentioned that this whole marriage thing and being forced to share my space has been really traumatic. Well, add my whole family and one friend of my stepdaughter, I was positively fit to be tied by the end of it all.

On the upside, I got to spend some quality time with my brother and his family. See pic below of my newest little Aggie fan (we like to brainwash them young!)
