Baby race

My brother Jeff and I are both doctors. OK, you hecklers, I'm a PhD and he's an MD, but people do call me Doctor Schmidt sometimes. Anyhow, we had a doctor race going to see who would become a doctor first. I won the race by graduating a semester early and rubbed his Landis nose in it ;-) Then we planned a 3-way baby race. My youngest brother Jim is marrying Christina next May. She has an 8-year-old son, Nathan. So I say they are disqualified b/c Nathan is not a baby and can't be included in a baby race. Jeff has been pestering his wife Nancy that they have to become contenders in this baby race, but she will not be pressured into childbearing just to win a silly bet. Now Nancy's sister-in-law just announced she is pregnant. So the race is on! Who will make Jeff and Nancy uncle and aunt first? I think we can count on baby Schmidt to win this one and make Barb a two-time undefeated champion of silly bets against Jeff involving life changing events.
