Hello,
How many nieces or nephews do you have? I am the uncle of one, soon to be two, nieces and two nephews. I am thrilled as I get to treat them like my own.

I have 8 nieces and nephews, 3 boys, and 5 girls. I also have 9 grandchildren, 3 boys and 6 girls.
One of my granddaughters just had her 3rd birthday yesterday. She has her "Papa" wrapped around her little finger.

One nephew and I'll have another in about 7.5 months. He is 19 months old and I look at him as if he were my own as well. I just finished building his first airplane model to hang in his room, a fictional but very good looking Pan Am Clipper 777-200!

I have two nieces, one is 5 years old and one is 9 months. The family dosen't see the older one due to her mother banning everyone from seeing her (long story) The youngest is the spitting image of my brother, she is such a cutie and is always giggling.

5 nieces , 3 nephews , 3 great-nieces , 3 great-nephews and 1 great-unspecified on the way due in September . I always think that it is extremely unfair that you go straight from nephews and nieces to great-nephews and great-nieces with having grand-nieces and grand-nephews in between

2 twin nephews that are 3 years old.
1 niece (or nephew) due in December
The funny thing about my nephews is that they were born on my (maternal) grandfather's birthday and my mother didn't even realize it for a week. A week after the birth, I called up my aunt(my mother's sister) in Switzerland who is not on speaking terms with my mom. "Wow, the ninth? That's the same as your grandfather!"

I have three nephews and one neice. Another nephew is coming along any minute now. My sis-in-law is due on Father's Day (today, as I type this). I didn't want to know until he was born if it was a nephew or neice, but that's okay. He has good parents and a fantastic and great looking uncle who is a snappy dresser, awesome singer, and always knows the best hiding spots for hide-and-seek.

One niece and one nephew. I never see them.
The nephew I have never even seen once.
Saw niece two times.
They are both teenagers.
This is what happens with a weird brother and weird sister in law.
C'est la vie.
There was a better way to fly it was called Concorde

I grew up in a family of 10 children, all adopted.
All but one are older than me (ranging from my younger sister of 29 through the early 60s), and the vast majority have kids of their own (average 2-3 per family).
So I have 15 nieces and nephews, and I am the proud great-uncle to my first great-niece!

Quoting Photopilot (Reply 11): All 4 Grandparents were only children
Both Parents only children.... so.
No sisters or brothers?
I have 3 nieces. I'd trade them all in for 1 nephew though ....
Nah, they're all right. A nephew would be so much easier to buy stuff for though, I'd just have to go into a toy store and figure out what I'd want .....

Three nephews. I never got to meet any of them because they're all in Germany, but that will change once I make my return (at least for two of my nephews).

One daughter
One Wifey
One each niece and nephew (on wifey's side)
A real deal uncle
A mother
A father (or so I am told as we have not seen him nor heard from him since 1964)
No brothers or sisters (unless the above mentioned MIA father procreated a half-sibling)
More cousins than you can shake a stick at (an old large Irish -Polish family spread far and wide)
IHAP

none for me, and none in the future for me. My fiancee and I are both only children in our families. We both have very close friends tho so they can be our kids' aunts and uncles.
Man, growing up it kinda sucked being the only kid...
