About nine months ago, we got a wonderful surprise! N8's sister, Pookie, announced she was pregnant. Throughout her whole pregnancy, we've been on pins and needles wondering what she would have. They already have one little girl, Pooh Bear, and decided that they were going to wait with this one and be surprised by the gender. N8 and I guessed they were going to have a little boy!
Last Thursday I got a text around midnight. Wondering who in the world would be texting me so late, I flipped open my phone to see that Pookie had sent me a text announcing the arrival of our new little . . . . boy, oh boy, were we wrong! Not a nephew but a niece! She was 6 lbs 7 ounces with long little feet and lots of hair.
I got to go over and spend the day with our new niece, Jo Jo! She is so little and so precious. We really missed having N8 here for this special event, but he was able participate a little bit through Skype.
Little Pooh Bear wasn't so sure about a new little sister, but is starting to like her more and more. Whenever Pookie nurses Jo Jo, she reads to Pooh Bear so she can get some time with mommy. Pooh Bear likes that time with mommy so much, she tells Pookie "I think Jo Jo is hungry," whenever Pooh Bear is ready to be read to again.
Congratulations Pookie, FireRyan, and Pooh Bear on the new addition to your family! We are so excited to have Jo Jo as our new little niece.
