My aunt just went into induction of labor. This will be my 12th cousin (my mom has 5 siblings).
I had to count 3 times, and I hope I remember everyone.
Well, we may not have parted on the best of terms. I realize certain words were exchanged. Also, certain... bullets. But that's air through the engine. It's past. We're business people.

The status is NOT quo.
Hee. I have that problem, too, Shir. On my dad's side, I have 8 cousins and...hold on, counting...those cousins have a total of 13 kids. On my mom's, I only have one. She's about to turn 18, so no kidlets for her, thank goodness.

All of these 12th cousins are on my mom's side. Ages 30 something (I think) to... well, soon one day old (the one after her is 2, I think).
My dad has two sisters, but none of them had (yet?) children.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I only have one first cousin, but a ton of second and third cousins.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I don't even know how many kids my cousins have. Only two of the four of them have kids- we're just not close.

I only have 5 cousins on my Mom's side of the family, but due to the way our property in Canada is distributed, I'm more often than not counting all the 2nd cousins too. (The original house was owned by my great-grandfather, then split up among my grandfather and his two brothers, and so on. Now four generations down, the house is owned by 23 cousins. No wonder branches of the family keep splitting off and building their own cabins...)

I'm still waiting on news from my cousin in Canada who is a week overdue. I have 7 first cousins and between them, they have 11 kids who are my second cousins (right?). This baby will be my 2nd third cousin. Yikes!!!
In other news, K-Bug is back in California. I probably won't see her again until July. sniff.

I have one first cousin by marriage (my aunt's daughter from a previous marriage) and...actually, that's it.

I'm still working on June. I got sick and then she was out here, so now I need to buckle down and see if I can swing that trip to Cali in June. Even so, she will be working most of that time and I won't see her much. The main point of that trip would be for CJ to see his friends.
