baby boy!

It's a baby boy! after grueling for almost 24 hours, she decided to go for C-section and after half an hour in the OT, Voila! another addition to the family--a beautiful baby boy. Mom says he looks like bro-in-law, sis thinks he resembles Justin our kid bro. I wasn't worried about who he resembled. But the first thing I wanted to know was if the lil dude had our family's beautifully and strategically pointy nose unlike my bro-in -law's broad, big nostrils and all. And thankfully nose-wise he is on our side. We now have to battle for the name! the paternal grandfather has chosen a rather boring name for the lil dude... I hope they will not make a final call on that.

At the end of the day, even after all the tension and excitement, I don't get to see the baby. I don't get to hold my darling sister's lil bundle of joy. My nephew. Not now and probably not for another few months. Sad. But then, it'll be worth the wait.
