I've lost it...

I never thought I'd get to this point... I've finally lost count of my nieces and nephews. At last count, I was in the 40's, but maybe I'm in the 50's now. I'm not sure and I can't remember off the top of my head. My sis-in-law, Kiki, and her hubs, Dan, just added another handsome little man to their beautiful family. Another bro-in-law, Doug and his wife, Lizzy, had a gorgeous baby boy a few months ago. My brother, Nick and his wife Ali, are adding another beautiful little future football player to their busy household. My sis-in-law, Beth and hubby, Jacob, are going to have another princess join there growing family, and my bro-in-law, John and his wife, Veronica, are expecting sweet darling #3 (who's due soon, I think). So there you have it... I can't keep up. This is what happens when my hubby has 16 brothers and sisters and I have 8 brothers and sisters on my side. So, can you honestly blame me for loosing count? :S

Hee hee. I'm surprised you didn't lose count a lot sooner. :) How are you doing? Hope things are going well!

Hey Celia Last I counted there are:
Boys-14 Girls-14 this includes Jayden (Crystals newest). Veronica is expecting a boy and Betheny is waiting for her girl which would bring us to 30 even. Plus there are Kathy's kids. That adds 3 girls and 1 boy! But its so late I could have counted wrong. I'll think when I'm not so tired

This is why when people ask me how many nieces and nephews I have, I shrug my shoulders and tell them I know how many there are on the Lowe side but on mine? Forget about it! Then I explain that we love them all so much we can't possibly count them all. I can't describe how happy and fulfilled our family makes me. I think of each of you often and consider you the bright spot in my life. Love, Auntie Jen

@ Carrie: Me, too! I knew it was going to happen...I just didn't know when! lol
@ Emily: I really have to make a list. On my side, with all of my siblings here in the U.S., NZ and Samoa, I've got over 15. I can't keep them straight. ;)
@ Jen: "We love them all so much we can't possibly count them all." I love it! I have always wanted to be an aunt to many, many nieces and nephews, now it's reality!

Love you all ladies! :)

Hey.... just catching up on blog reading :)

Isn't wonderful? It is so fun to be a part of such a great and large family where there's so much love and not enough time to count. I love it.

And, congrats to Nick and Alissa - how exciting!
