Yep!! It's happening again! I couldn't be happier, too!
My sister-in-law, Christine, and her husband, Ryan got married this past Spring shortly before they moved to California since they are both in the military. It's sucked having her away. She called me today and told me that she is expecting a little one! It's their first, and I know they're nervous, scared, uncertain, uneasy, but I know they're also happy, excited, and looking forward to meeting their little one.
Of course, there's a lot still unknown at this point. She's going to the doctor to confirm everything and get a due date on Monday. They're going to find out the sex of the baby as soon as they're able to, so we'll be able to help them out with clothes and nursery items as soon as we know. I'm hoping everyone is going to be able to get together this coming Friday for Thanksgiving (she and Ryan are flying in) and I'll be bringing some unisex onesies and "What to Expect When You're Expecting" so her to take back with her.
But, in true "Aunt Mandy" fashion- there has to be a Disney touch here. So, I'm in need of your help. Help me scour the internet for Disney-themed baby items. I'm looking for boy, girl or unisex items that I can pass along to my Disney-loving sister-in-law.
I'm so excited to be an aunt again and to meet my new little neice or nephew. I'm scared for Christine. I know that I'd be shitting a chicken right about now. And being so far away from your family when you find out has got to be incredibly hard. I'm gonna do what I can do help her out- I know if it ever happens for Chad and I damnit, infertility sucks) that I'm going to be leaning on my friends and family for all the help I can get.
So bring it on! Show me some Disney items! Let's try to get this kid to sing a chorus of "When you wish upon a star" as soon as he or she pops out! :)
Congrats, Aunt Mandy! ;-)
