My new niece or nephew! My sister finally mentioned it on her blog, so I assume it's now mentionable on mine. My sister is making me an aunt again, and I couldn't be happier.
As any infertile will tell you, there's a weird mixture of joy and jealousy when someone close to you announces a pregnancy. I had my afternoon of "stupid uterus" and "rotten ovaries", but it didn't last long. And with that out of the way, it's so fun to think about a fresh new little baby.
Since I won't know Zoe as a newborn, and I wasn't particularly interested in babies for my first niece and nephew, it's more fun this time around. I go to the the baby stores and (poor Jeff) have a whole new section to wander around. Newborn stuff is precious, isn't it? And now that she's coming home in March, I hope we can do some baby shopping together.
How awesome is it for two sisters to be able to go shopping for the babies their expecting together?
She doesn't know boy or girl yet, but should soon.
And to tie this in to my previous post, her baby's due on Harry Potter's birthday. How many of my fellow dorks know what that is?

Congrats to your sister and to you for becoming an aunt again! I know exactly what you mean by feeling mixed emotions. Every time one of my friends announces a pregnancy, I feel happy and sad at the same time. I know once Briana is home with me, it won't bother me at all anymore!
July 31!!
Congrats to your sister, and I'm glad you're happy about it!
Fellow Dork? ha ha ha... yeah, this dork here didn't have a clue!
And tell them rotten ovaries to take a hike, just unnecessary weight we schlepp around. I bet mine weigh the 30 lbs I need to lose anyway. - LOL.
Congrats to the auntie!
