A couple weeks ago, my brother and sister-in-law explained to our nephews that Uncle Dave and Aunt Michelle are planning to adopt a baby sometime this year. James (5) was so excited, he started telling everybody about a new baby cousin. He even asked for his teacher's home phone number so he could call her that night. The UPS truck showed up at the neighbor's and he was looking out the window watching and he said, "I wonder if that is how Aunt Michelle's baby is going to get delivered." My sister-in-law tried to explain that UPS doesn't deliver babies. :-)
Andrew (7) calls his future cousin "baby him/her" since we don't know if it will be a boy or girl. And he has already decided that if it's a girl, he will buy it a pink stuffed animal and a blue one if it's a boy. Although my brother tried to tell them the baby is not here yet, the boys decided that they are just planning things out, so they are ready when their new cousin arrives. Too cute!
Thanks for being so excited boys! We can't wait either!
Aunt Michelle
