A New Cousin!

Our cousins, Joe and Eileen who got married last year announced late last week that they are expecting their first child! We are so excited for them!

Joe and I grew up being very close. We were the only cousins in our family that were the same age-he's about 2.5 months older than I am. The next in age is either 6 years younger or about 8 years older. So we grew up being pretty close and hanging out at family functions together.

Now him and Eileen live in Florida so we only see them maybe 2-3 times a year, but it'll be so great that Avery will have a cousin so close to her age! I hope Avery and their baby will grow up close like Joe and I did!

Eileen is due late March, early April so it'll be interesting to see if she hits any of the family birthdays around then....my Mom and late Grandma are March 30th, our Aunt is March 31st and mine is April 12th...so you never know!

So far they're not finding out the sex of the baby (yay!) so we'll be waiting to see what they have! Congrats Joe and Eileen! We can't wait to meet your new bundle of joy!!
