My little niece and a sneak peek

Thank you so much for your sweet comments on my previous post about all the exciting things that are happening in my life right now!!

I'm so proud to be an auntie now!!! Still can't believe it that my little sister (she's 5 years younger than I am) had a baby!!! She gave birth to Demi in only 5 hours! Everything went great! She had to stay in the hospital for one night. Directly after she was born my sister gave me a phone call asking me if I could come to the hospital to meet my little niece! So we stepped in the car at 2AM to drive to the hospital (about 30 mins away from us)!! My sister looked great!! And Demi is such a cute little girl!!!!
Buuut..there is a biiig bummer.... my parents are on vacation in the US at the moment and will only be back in 3 weeks!! They were so sad that they had to miss all this.. especially those 3 first weeks of Demi her life!! Normally they would have been back on time.. as my sister was only due on December 14th!!
Yesterday I've spent almost the whole day at my sisters house.. I had planned to go there for a little hour.. but there were so many things I could help them with.. so I did some grocery shopping and stuff like that!! Before she left my mom had made a cute basked with some little bags with candies in it for the visitors and I created some cute little tags to go with it.
As you can see my life has been a little busy since Saturday.. hehe.. I did create a card for my sister.. but I was in such a hurry that I've sent it out before I took a picture of it.. hehe..

Sooo.. I'll end with a little sneak peek of a layout that I've created for CreativeXpress.
I'll be back asap with some fresh creations!!

XOXO
Nancy

Oooooooh Nancy, isn't she the sweetest cutest little girl!! I know how you feel, my brother is 10 years younger then I am, and his 2nd son was born in the middle of the night... The first one he called was me! And it is so very special when a younger brother or sister gets a baby....
Sneak......wow, looks good, can't wait to see the rest!!

OOOOoo Wat een schatje!! Wat zul jij trots zijn zeg, en je zusje ook. Jammer hoor dat je ouders nog op vakantie zijn. Die zullen ook wel staan te popelen om hun kleindochter in het echie te zien.
Super gefeliciteerd, tante Nancy!

What a sweet little girl. Nice that you can share this together and that you're not living far from eachother. My brother lives in New Zealand and his little boy is almost two now and when he was born I only could see him in pictures or with the webcam.

What a beautiful little girl! Plus such a cute name! I understand the disappointment of having a baby when family is gone! I had Antonia on December 21 & my in laws went home to the Philipines for Christmas!!!!! They are gone for at least a month or two. It did make for a great New Years gift for them!
I am sorry that I have been absent from your blog cuz I really missed your stuff!

Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.
