Oh Brother! (Or Sister?)

We’re excited to announce that the Petersik family is currently under construction. Our new addition is expected on May 19th. We’re thrilled, even though a certain someone won’t be the baby anymore…

Yup, Sherry’s got a proverbial bun in her proverbial oven. And we couldn’t be more elated to share the news with you guys! More details to follow on Friday (so ask any and all q’s and we’ll answer as many as we can at the end of the week).

Until then it’s back to before & afters and DIY ideas- we’re nothing if not home obsessed…

    Congratulations! This is perfect timing – I’m due June 19th with our first baby – now I know where I’ll be getting all the nursery ideas! So happy for you guys – can’t wait to see all your adventures.

    How have you been feeling? Any name ideas? We also live in a small space – so I’m curious about how you’re going to lay out the baby’s room, and most importantly, STORAGE! :)

    Congrats again & best wishes!

    Congratulations!!! My hubby is starting to get nervous because now almost all of my favorite bloggers are pregnant, and I’ve been afflicted with “Baby Rabies”.

    Are you planning on cloth diapering and possibly starting a YHL baby related blog?

    CONGRATULATIONS!! What a sweet, sweet blessing! And I’m stoked to see you guys do a nursery (I’m sure to be jealous, though there’s not bread in my oven, but one day I hope…) So question: Who do you think is going to have a harder time adjusting to the addition?

    Oh, I just knew it was about to happen for you two !! When I read about Katie expecting over at Bower Power, I thought perhaps you two were in cahoots again, since you are always creating fabulous things together. Yay, it’s true! I am so very excited for you both and know you will make the most amazing parents. Sorry for Burger though. Poor guy. No longer King of the Castle. But I know there are some charming photos on the horizon of Burg curling up with his soon-to-be best friend.

    Much love and congrats to you both !

    xoxo

    Congrats! You guys will be so amazed by parenthood! I am wondering how you plan to juggle running the blog and caring for a little one. Are you thinking of hiring a nanny or using daycare? Is John going to quit his job to be a stay at home dad?

    Congratulations-what a lucky baby to be able to come to a home with talented parents like you both. There is nothing better than a child in the home-well a dog works pretty good too! :) My kids are gone now but I am a grandma now-its great too-but the house is quiet-you will love being parents.

    Congratulations to you both! And you too Burger! Being a parent is the hardest and most rewarding job you’ll ever have. There is nothing in this world that has pleased me more than being a mother. Seriously the best gift in the world!

    Will you be finding out what sex the baby is or do you want it to be a surprise? Thank you for sharing your great news with us!

    Congrats guys! What wonderful news! I knew it had to be coming soon! We are also expecting our first-a baby girl- St. Patrick’s Day and could not be happier! I guess this makes Sherry, what, 15 weeks or so? Are you all finding out the sex soon? I can’t wait to see your nursery and all your ideas! I, too, would be interested to hear how you all will be handling daycare.

    How wonderful – congratulations John & Sherry! As a long time fan of your blog, I was hoping some day to read a post like this.

    Pregnancy and parenthod is a wonderful journey. Enjoy every minute of it. And enjoy the burst of energy over the next few months as nesting kicks in… Getting projects done takes a whole lot longer once your little one is here :o/
