Good for you!!! 16 lbs is a lot of weight!!! Neices & nephews are the best after your kids get older. I have a 3 yr old nephew & an 8 yr old nephew I adore. I don't have to ever say no unless they're going to hurt themselves. Its what you would have done with your own kids if you didn't want them to grow up responsible!!! The 8 year old lives in Texas & I'm in NY so I don't see him often but he is coming in next week for a week long visit. I can't wait. Ignore your sister. Minimizing is probably the only way she can handle what you're going through. Doesn't make it right... just the way it is. Too bad that it affects your relationship with the kids. Keep up your good work & try not to overdo it with the kids this weekend!!!!
