I'm going to be an uncle today!!!

Well, Im sitting in the waiting room waiting for my sister to have her first baby. I'm so excited, I can't wait! Little does my future nephew know now, he will inherit my watch collection...lucky him. I just wanted to share my excitement. I would say more but I'm afraid my iPhone won't be able to handle it and I will have to type this all over haha. At least I have TRF to browse around to pass the time!

Congrats. Now if you were from the South you could be twice as happy as you can be both an uncle and dad at the same time.

Congratulations Russ Nephews are a lot of fun. I have a blast with mine. My wife and I had them with us all day Sunday and it was great. They listened, behaved well, and were rewarded...ok bribed

It's a great feeling when they get older and love you back because of how you treat them

Here's the twins, Anthony and Joey

Additions to the family are fun. The nice thing about being an uncle is you get to visit, spoil them and send them back to their parents. Now if you are planning to give away Rolex watches, I would love for you to be my uncle!!! HINT!!! HINT!!!

Just an update for you. My nephew Domenic was born on 3/4/09 at 8:45pm, he weighs 7lbs and he is perfect! Mom and baby are going great. I have some pics on my iPhone, if I get a chance at lunch today i will post them. Thanks for all the kind words, everyone. What is the smallest, lightest Rolex I can buy him???
