I'm an Uncle - Part the Fourth!

General
Hey everyone! So, if you hadn't seen it, a recent update to my previous journal noted that I and my Dad were delaying the move for a short while due to to real life issues that came up. I wasn't entirely specific on what the issue was for the sake of not worrying anyone, but now I can finally affirm the details.
I don't know if I made mention of it previously, but my little sister Jennifer and her boyfriend (whom she WILL eventually marry), about eight and a quarter months ago, successfully managed to conceive a child of their own. That's right, my little sister was pregnant!
Now, here's the thing; my sister has had some history of medical problems in the past. I won't go into details, but her pregnancy was guaranteed to be a moderate-to-high-risk one from the start, so we've been keeping a close eye on both her and the baby since. Recently, however, Jenn was starting to suffer from some pregnancy-related blood pressure issues, and the doctors were afraid they would adversely affect the baby as a result. So they decided to take him early via c-section.
And as of this post, I can happily report that at 9:23 this morning, a healthy and wonderful baby boy, my new nephew Brock, was born into this world; measuring 20 in. long and weighing in at 8 lbs., 7 oz.!
I'm so happy for my little sis, and so proud; she's gonna make a great mother! And if anyone has any words of congratulations or well-wishes to send to her, I'll be sure to pass them along.
