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

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
