On May 8th (my second Mother’s Day) I became an aunt! My sister Kristin was due with her first baby on May 20th but little Nathan had other ideas! They were scheduled for a c-section a few days before that because the baby was breech and a little too snuggly! That Saturday night, Kristin’s water broke and by 1:30am they were preparing for the hospital. Thank goodness Linc is a night owl and answered his phone because mine was on silent and I missed the 10+ phone calls from my brother in law! We were on pins and needles waiting to hear what was going on and by 3:30am baby Nathan had been taken by emergency c-section! I couldn’t even believe he was here already and even though I was a bit sad we weren’t there for the actual birth, I was so proud of my sister and her husband! I stayed up until around 5:30 texting and talking to Ryan and then finally tried to get some sleep since we were going to leave first thing in the morning to make the trek down there. What a great way to start Mother’s Day!!
