21 Thoughts You Have After Finding Out Your Sister Is Pregnant
The Bump

Finding out you're going to be an aunt is one of the most exciting times of your life! You get to experience the beauty of pregnancy vicariously through her, as well as be her hand to hold along the way. It means planning gender reveal parties, baby showers and spending way too much money on your unborn niece or nephew, already. It means random texts from your sister when she's being emotional, and random snapshots of Pinterest ideas from you.

When you first hear that you're going to be an auntie, you're rushed with so many thoughts and emotions; Excitement, happiness and a little bit of shock. You don't know whether to scream, cry or jump up and down (maybe all of the above).

If you're anything like me, these were the first 21 thoughts you had after finding out you were a soon-to-be aunt:

1. You're pregnant?!


2. Omg. Congratulations! *tears of joy*


3. Wait. You're old enough to have a baby?


4. We're having children already?


5. Should I be having kids by now?


6. What am I doing with my life?


7. I'M GOING TO BE A FREAKIN' AUNT!


8. This baby is going to be so spoiled, and you already know it.


9. I hope I'm their favorite.



10. IS IT TOO EARLY TO START PLANNING A BABY SHOWER?!


11. I want a baby...


12. OK, maybe I'm not ready for a baby.


13. I still want one though...


14. I will just steal my niece or nephew every chance I get, instead.


15. When do I get to know the gender?


16. At least how long? 16 weeks? That's so far...


17. I don't wanna only buy gender neutral stuff.


18. Okay just a few...hundred.


19. I AM GOING TO BE AN AUNT!


20. I love this baby so much already.


21. I can't wait to meet you.


So, Congratulations! You're going to be an aunt. You're going to love that baby with everything in you; You'll hug that child like a mother, keep their secrets like a best friend, kick their butt when they need it, and love them even more than you love their mother. The only thing better than being a sister, is being an aunt.

"An aunt is an awesome, understanding and nice teacher." -- Unknown

A special congratulations to Diedra and David! I cannot wait to meet your little bundle of joy. xoxo

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
