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…
Gina says
My 2 favorite blogs!! You and ABP are pregnant at the same time!!! That is a crazy coincidence and so great!! You truly are blogger soulmates. My only sadness is that I am 12 months behind all the wonderful baby designing that will happen around here since I had my baby last year… CONGRATS!!!!
Jessica says
CONGRATULATIONS! I know that this baby will be living in style! :-)

Great news! Congrats to you guys! Burger will make a fine big brother!
Rebekah says
Oh my goodness. I’m pretty sure EVERY blogger I read is having a baby, or just had a baby. And, I had a feeling this announcement would come from you two any day now.
Are you going to find out if it’s a boy or a girl? How are you planning to balance a full-time blog and a full-time baby? When/how did you tell John, your parents, etc.? Will you be raising a ‘green’ baby (no, not an alien…) — cloth diapers, making your own baby food, etc.?
Also… I can’t wait for the name and nursery design. And you better show us a baby bump photo ASAP. :)
Congrats you guys!! And Burger, too!
Jennifer F says
congrats! So how did you guys come to the decision to start trying? And was john on board right away? My hubby and I are in negotiations on when we want to start trying…he’s on a 5 year plan while I’m thinking 2. Can’t wait to follow along with you!
Sue says
WOW!! I’m so happy for you! And I can’t wait to see what you do with Li’l Petersik’s nursery!!
Ashley says
Congratulations! I hope the newbie has your design genes!
Katherine Anne says
Oh my goodness! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I am so excited for you both and for Burger! Best Wishes :)
jane says

Laura says
It’s not April Fool’s is it? Cause that wouldn’t be cool! However, very good for the both of you! Can’t wait to see the progress along the way!
Candied Fabrics says
Congratulations! Both my boys are May babies – it’s a great time to deliver…your not huge and awkward during the icy months, and your not huge and miserable during the humid summer! Oops…did I spill the beans? You’re going to be huge at some point? Sorry if this was news! ;-)
Seriously…enjoy this time! You get to take care of baby & still go wherever you want without a carseat! And decorate into the wee hours without changing diapers!
Congrats again!
Heather Meuer says
Congratulations!! Sooo sooooo excited for you guys. We’re working on starting our family too, so it will be great to see more nursury ideas from you guys! I’m with everyone else, you guys are going to be wonderful parents. Just look at Burger!

Here’s my question: how much did Katie Bower freak out when you told HER? Considering her funny anecdote about how much you yelled when she told you?
Congrats!
Christine says
Congratulations!!

On your mark…
Amy Y. says
Congratulations! Babies are the best excuse to decorate ever! Were you trying to make sure that Katie’s (Bower Power) baby has a design friendly playmate, LOL? I love both your blogs, and it’s nice to know there are more stylish tots on the way.

You guys!!! Congratulations! That’s going to be one lucky baby, and I’m sure Burger is going to be a wonderful big brother.
