I'm an Auntie!!!

So Saturday morning - making my coffee I get a call. It's my lovely Mom and she's calling to share the wonderful news.

My brother Merrygosorry and wife Sassypants are the proud parents of two lovely babies. We will call them S and O.

Apparently the girl 'O' wanted out now (sounds familiar). The boy 'S' was just chillin' , but the sister was ready to get out of her cramped quarters. Her brother was probably touching her or something.

And so it goes and now I am an Auntie!

Went to visit the pair shortly thereafter and they are quite the handsome pair. S was taking a snooze and gave Auntie a tease of skin by flashing an armpit. O was tightly swaddled but reminded me of myself after a long night of drinking as she had a burped up some of her formula but didn't care, she was sound asleep.

I didn't get to hold them as they were in little glass boxes - preparing themselves for the world outside. But I was happy I got to see them.

S and O are not identical. I don't know if boy and girl twins can be identical - because of that extra tag of skin that boys have. There is definitely a difference between them.

S looks like my family. My Daddy to be exact. No its not because he's bald and wrinkly. My Dad has a full head of hair (well, kinda). S has the family nose. I know you say he's only 12 hours old - but I am telling you - I can tell. He looks like a boy - very handsome indeed.

O is a dainty beauty. I don't know what Sassypants looked like as a baby. But wouldn't it be wonderful to have two kids that looked like each of you?

I know I look at J and see The AH. Not that she's an AH - she just looks like him - a lot.

I only say she looks like me when she's looking quite extraordinary. Like myself. (I had to add something about Me of course).

Sassy and Merry did a good job on the tiny pair. I am quite pleased with it all!

I heard Sassy was stoned so I made sure I brought plenty of chocolates for the munchies that may follow.

Merry is high on life right now - I think I saw him float.

Congrats you two...

When's the next pair coming?
