Missing Out

While I am loving living here in Washington DC, there have been some bittersweet moments. Today my sister gave birth to her fourth child, my new nephew Caleb. He is adorable!

But it's also been hard because I haven't been there.

I've been nearby for every birth of my sister (with the exception of her second since I was at camp when Tessa arrived unexpectedly...but I was there the very next day!) I have been able to cuddled, play, and form close relationships with my nieces and nephews of all my siblings.

And now Caleb is here and I won't see him for a few months.

...It's kind of killing me....

When I found out that Becky was pregnant with Caleb, I literally jumped two feet in the air out of sheer excitement and then I realized that I would be here in DC. sigh. It's a very bittersweet thing.

But I am so happy for my sister and her family! And as I see it, my family is always complaining that I hog the babies (which I totally do) so this is their opportunity to get him as much as they want because I am planning on holding him all the time in December. :)


Welcome Caleb! I can't wait to meet you!
