I’m back from my whirlwhind trip home to see my new niece.  It was great to spend time with my mom, sister, and brother-in-law, and the baby is absolutely adorable.  And chunky.  And goofy.  I spent a good deal of time fighting with my mom over who gets to hold her.

Here’s me finally meeting her:

And obviously we had to go get dim sum.  She’s not really into it yet, though.

My mom watched the baby one night and my sis, brother in law, and I went to eat Giant Ass Chicken Nachos™ and beer.

After wrestling Jordin from my mom, I let her sleep on my boobs.  See, they’re good for something!

Since I’m the educator in the family, I thought I’d go ahead and start teaching her gang signs.

She’s also pretty good at kung-fu.

Here’s a pic of all the girls (my sis, me, baby, mom).

All in all it was a great trip.  I’ll be back soon, and hopefully she won’t grow too much!
