9. Giggle a little that at times the Bean's breathing does indeed sound like a CPAP machine.
8. Volunteer for diaper duty.
7. Knit booties.
6. Interrupt dinner-making every 3-4 minutes to kiss these sweet cheeks. (Mid-nap cooing requires an immediate response.)
5. Watch everyone just fall in love with her.
4. Wonder how her little ears and her silky, curly-when-just-bathed hair grew so perfectly.
3. Cheer when she kicks, stretches her long legs out straight or focuses her eyes on something for more than a second.
2. Spend inordinate amounts of time in one's pj's.
1. Smell her sweet, sweet baby smell while snuggling with this little bundle napping on my chest.
Welcome to the world baby Bean. This auntie is smitten!

AWWWWH!!!! She's beautiful!!! AUNTIE!!!! ;-) hugs!
So cute! There is nothing like a baby sleeping on your chest. Enjoy her! ox
Adorable! I used to nanny for a little girl that everyone called "the bean" - it's a good nickname! :)
Isn't it fun being an aunt?! I love it... And as they get older, you're kind of like a grandparent - you can spoil them rotten, always be the "good guy," and you'll still be young enough to be considered somewhat "cool." Enjoy it!
(And yes... I'm looking into an alligator workout outfit. That could really step up my exercising... LOL)
Oh, Andrea, what a sweetie! Lovely pictures and great Top Ten! Your niece is very lucky to have such an adoring auntie!

Congratulations, Auntie!! She is beautiful! Ilove your tribute to her. Indeed, one can fall in love with a baby in an instant. Love how you highlighted all the love moments. I'm in awe of her curled up legs and feet. Wow! Looks like a tall little girl.
She is precious!
What an adorable little one! Congrats to your entire family. This was a great post! :)
Oh man -- being an auntie is the BEST! Glad you are getting in some good snuggle-down time. Many, many congratulations to your family and you and to the littlest bean for being so loved.
You forgot one thing. You need to occasionally lift up her little bean eyelids and peer deeply into her eyes when she is sleeping. It's something that will endear you to her mother . . .
You're a terrific auntie!
