My LOs see one uncle a couple times a month but they don't have regular contact with their other two uncles. My brother used to be good about calling and returning calls but he is really busy now!
-
Yes, we see them every week!
-
Nope. He's seen my BIL maybe 10-15 times in his life. He lives 5 minutes away. He makes no effort.
As for my brother, he used to live far away, so when DS was younger it was hard. Now he's 2 hours away and DS loves to spend time with him.
-
Yep we facetime weekly and he tries to visit home every few months.
-
No.
She hasn't seen her aunt and uncle that live in VA since she was 8 months old. She has never met her aunt and uncle in MD and she has only met her Uncle who lives in WA once. -
Nope. We live 3 hours from most of them and across country from my brother. My brother will rarely FaceTime. My sister doesn't care. DHs brother and his wife have facetimed a few times. DHs sister doesn't care to.
-
Nope, none. DH's sister an hour away but his aunt intentionally excludes us from family events and her husband came by the hospital during a long stay because he felt bad.
-
No - we live out of state so see them a few times a year (my family) and DH's side lives all over the place so we see them maybe 1 time a year or every other year
-
Yes. We see my Sister usually once a week and we see SIL a couple of times a month.
-
Yes, we see my sisters at least 1-2 time a month, but she talks on the phone regularly with my sisters and their children. We see DH's brother around once a month as well. We make a point to have our daughter grow up with her cousins, they are some of my and DH's best memories.
-
Yes, we see my sister usually 1-3 times per week and my sister-in-law usually 1-2 times per month. I also have a half-sister who lives far away- we only see her about twice a year (but for multiple days each time).
-
Yes. They see my sister at least a couple of times a week. They see my BIL about once a month. All other aunts and uncles are once every couple of months.
-
Nope. The closest lives an hour away. Next closest ones are 4-5 hour flights away. The rest are a 30+ hour flight marathon away.,.
-
We see dhs siblings at least 1x a month. We see his youngest brother the most. We never ever see my brother so lo doesn't really know who he is.
-
We all try to get together ever month or so. Sometimes it's hard with schedules, but we make it work.
-
Yes. There is one set she only sees once a month or so, but everyone else sees her often. If it's been a while, they will Skype or call.
-
No, she has nine aunts and seven uncles but we live overseas so regular contact is hard. That said, a couple don't even send her birthday cards, which makes me sad.
-
No, not really. She only has one uncle and he lives 100 miles away, in London. He has a daughter who is only 8 months younger than DD so the intention was to make the effort and be a part of each others' lives but it just hasn't worked out that way.
-
We see my family quite often. She sees DH's side 3-4 times a year. They don't make an effort at all. Usually we have to go visit them.
-
Yes, we are close with our families, even the siblings that don't live locally. We skype to China every Sunday night.
-
Yes they are very close! Our sisters love him and see him often. I try to see my nephews frequently too.
-
No, they all live in different countries!
-
We live 1.5 hours away so usually only once a month, more around the holidays.
-
We live far from both our families, so LO probably sees her aunt/uncle on DH's side 2-3 times a year and some Skype sessions; my side we are reallllly spread out geographically, so some she's still never met--others she seems 2-3 times a year.
-
Yes for most of them. We see my sisters a few times a month, but my brother lives in CA, so we only see him a few times a year. DH does Facetime with his family daily, so it's rare that LO does not "talk" with all of them (7 siblings!) at least once a week.
-
We see my side often. We see my in-laws once or twice a year. It doesn't bother me. They have older children and are busy. We go there to visit when it's convenient for us.
-
We try to get together with my brother, SIL & their kids about once a month but toddler colds get in the way frequently.
DHs sister comes out twice a year. She still lives with the in laws so we she her on face time frequently.
-
Yes for most of his aunts and uncles. We see my sisters regularly, and he enjoys hanging out with his cousins. DH's extended family gets together for all the major holidays, and both LOs love the big gatherings and tons of attention.
-
No. Her aunt lives in NYC and has only seen her three times. We don't Skype or anything. Her uncle lives closer and sees her maybe once every month or two. He always says he wants to start stopping by more often-- but life conspires.
-
No, all our family is in india..she will be meeting them in March for first time.
-
We see my sister at least 1 - 2x a week, she lives a mile away and comes over all the time. We will need to figure out how to see SIL & BIL more often. Before LO, we saw them for dinner usually every week or every other week when we went to my IL's. But now with LO's early bedtime, we haven't been going over for dinner much anymore...
-
Sort of? DH's brother and sister adore Declan, but his sister lives far away and his brother works a lot. We see his brother every few weeks at family stuff. When we're all together we usually skype his sister.
My brother...is weird. Think possibly undiagnosed Asperger's. He's kind of ambivalent about having a nephew and doesn't make much effort in regards to him. We see him when we visit my parents but he's not super interested in his nephew.
She hasn't seen her aunt and uncle that live in VA since she was 8 months old. She has never met her aunt and uncle in MD and she has only met her Uncle who lives in WA once. Reply
