I don't know about anybody else, but my Spring Break started out with some awesome news. My brother and his wife had their first baby together on Saturday morning! His name is Hunter. and for being a newborn he is pretty adorable! It sounds rude, but most newborns are kind of weird looking at first. It could just be because he is my nephew, but he is a pretty good looking newborn. My brother and his wife had an extremely long night, and so did my parents. My brother and Stephanie, his wife, decided to go to the hospital at about 10:30 Friday night, and by about 11:00 they called my parents who drove an hour and a half to get to the hospital before little Hunter made his grand appearance. I got a phone call at about 2 in the morning, but did not feel like I needed to rush to the hospital since it is only about five minutes from our house. My parents only did because this is Stephanie's third baby, and I guess they tend to come out faster after one or two. I ended up going to the hospital at about 9 the next morning, and Hunter still hadn't arrived. When I got there my parents and I went and ate breakfast in the hospital cafeteria, then Daniel came and got my mom and me to go back and see Stephanie. While we were back there she was saying she was having pressure and it was time to push, so my mom and I left the room to go wait. At exactly 10 a.m. Hunter arrived to say hello to the world. We all joked with my brother about passing out, but he hung in there and made it through! By about 10:30 we all got to go back and meet little baby Hunter. My mom got to hold him first, and then I did. He did not cry the whole time up until it was time to get a bath. My brother took a video of him crying that is so cute. His little chin quivers every time he screams.
Whenever they took him back for a nap my mom, dad, and I decided to go eat lunch with Steven at this time since we could not really see the baby anyway. We went and got some Subway at the mall, then my mom and I shopped around for a little bit. We did not find much, but I did score a new pair of Nikes. They are really sweet shoes! After that we went back to the hospital. When we got back there Stephanie's other two kids were there. They are a bit hyper, but they are fun to be around. I ate snacks with her son and helped him color. Her daughter really wanted to hold Hunter. They let her hold him, but it was kind of scary because she is only five. I hung out at the hospital until about 6 when I decided it was probably time to go home and hang out with Steven. Tonight they are supposed to bring Hunter over so we can see him without six other people being around constantly. I am pretty excited to see my new nephew! I consider Stephanie's other kids my niece and nephew even though they aren't my brother's as well as Steven's nieces and nephews, but Hunter is the first real official one by blood. It is pretty exciting! I hope he likes me when he gets bigger!
