• My niece

  

  I got to meet my niece last night.  This is Addy.  She was born sometime last month, and yeah I don't remember the date so shoot me.   Anyhow my brother was coming up to see if he could find Rissa.  He was a run-away himself so he knows a bunch of the spots, and was very very worried about Rissa.  Of course she was found just as he got in town, but its all good.   My other sister Tina the one whose recently preggers changed her mind one more time after the last blog, and we all ended up going to my moms.  Her house isn't big, and it was even smaller with us all there.  But you know regardless of many of the choices my brother Isaiah has made we ended up really enjoying him and his girlfriend.   I've been watching him mature over the pregnancy, and birth.  I so hope its going to last.  Addy needs him to!

  

  Anyhow when we first got in the house Jeremiah was very nervous about that wee-thing.  And slowly, ever so slowly over the course of several hours he finally got brave enough to get up on the futon and touch her.  Tracey was so sweet with the two of them. 

  

  She just encouraged it.  Look at Jer's face in that picture.  That baby is just scarey man. 

  

  But he kept getting closer, and closer, and then finaly just before he was done he asked to "hold" her.  Note my brothers hand supporting that!  ROFL  And the talk on the way home from bean-butt was all about Addie. 

  

  So here's 8/9's of the motley crew.  My brother Gabe has moved to Seattle, and wasn't there last night. 

  

  All of the sisters.

  

  And all of the brothers.  Okay so brothers just don't like to pose for pictures.  *sniggers*

  

  All of the brothers and a extra or two.  Can't see Sam?  See the checked shirt under Isaiah?  *snigger*

  The overwhelming feeling of the evening was laughter and content.  There was  a HUGE under current of all of the other crap, but for the most part it went well.  I had to do some serious dealing with my attitude towards my Tina-sister.  Not over the pregnancy, over her selfishness, and other things towards her younger siblings (my kids).

  But I guess that's the stuff of siblings LOL.   And now we return back to the regularly scheduled program.
