Just wanted to share,

My bro had a baby girl this afternoon.
Was born @ 13h34 with 3.954kg (oh... that's 8lbs-11oz on your side of the scale)
She is healthy and so is the mom.

Can't wait to go see her later.
And after the hospital, gonna finalize the work on the car, of course.
I'm driving my car tomorrow... woohooo !!!

Congrats! I got to see my adopted niece from China for the first time this last week.

did you go to China, or you had her come to the US ?

My sister and hubby went to China to get her.

What a cutie!

Julie, you have some pix of your adopted child ?
That's very cool... it's something that I'd do if ever I cannot have any kids..

She's my niece, I have tons of pix of her. From what I understand it is a much longer wait to get a child from China now.

oops... brain fart... thought of adoptive child, not adoptive niece (sorry for misreading it)
Yeah... a few friends of mine have gone through the adoption process and it's quite an emotional roller-coaster, not to mention long and strenuous process.

Congrats Eugenio and Julie. I have six nephews, three nieces, (one of whom LOVES motorsports), and one grand niece. (Is that what you call your nephews daughter?). I'm waiting,(somewhat impatiently), for a grand child, although I suppose a daughter-in-law is necessary first.

I love being auntie...no diapers, only the fun stuff!

Posted by: Eugenio_SS Aug 8 2008, 09:27 PM

all they need is a 1-night-stand
daughter-in-law will definitely help.

on a more serious note, congrats on the big family.
I used to tease my brother saying I had 2 nephews when he had 2 dogs.
But now I have 1 nephew and 1 niece... (I only have 1 brother)

i'm with you on that.
You can spoil them and have lots of great quality time.
I tend to give gifts related to cars/bikes/engines/etc.

My nephew loves his trike, movie "Cars", all the "Cars" collection cars.
The other day, in front of my place, was coming home from the park w/ my nephew and there was a Kawazaki parked in front of my house.
he goes : "I want motorcycle" ... he's almost 3... made my day... I made him repeat what he said to dad + mom...
When he's big enough, I'll definitely give a spin around the block on the bike.

I'm thinking on getting him a kart one of these days, when he'll be bigger.
