Young House Love » Random » Oh Brother! (Or Sister?)

| By John Petersik | November 18, 2009 | 905 Comments

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…

BurgerBigBrother

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…

    Wow – I get to be the first comment to say -Congratulations!!!!! That is very exciting news. :) And, wow – both of my favorite bloggers are prego – Sherry and Katie both. So Sherry, when Katie spilled the beans to you on the phone at the grocery store, did you tell her then too?

    Congratulations!
    I can’t believe it – I was browsing your site this morning (I’m in the UK) thinking I wish these guys had a baby so I could steal ideas from their nursery!!! Eeeek!
    I look forward to your solutions on keeping your home looking fabulous with curious little hands getting into everything (I have 17 month old twin boys and my house is like a padded cell). Keep up the fabulous work and once again, congratulations.

    Congratulations Sherry and John! I discovered your blog around August and quickly became a regular follower because my husband and I were house hunting for our 1st place. We closed on our house on Nov. 10th and have been working on it every day until we move in this weekend (your peel and stick tile tutorial has been indispensable). On top of all that we are expecting our 1st baby in May also! My due date is May 4th. What a coincidence!
    Anyway, I look forward to see how you handle a new baby and maintaining your home (which is lovely) and hopefully I can continue to be helped by your great tips!
    Congrats again!

    First of all, that’s the most adorable shot of Burger. I love how he is posing, with his head turned back to the camera. LOL.

    OMG! Congratulations!! I am really excited for you and wish you the best. The only question I have is do you prefer traditional or unconvential names?
