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…

    Congratulations! I’m glad you’ll be decorating for a baby sooner rather than later, so that by the time my fiance and I are ready for kids, I’ll have a giant treasure trove of decorating ideas to sift through!

    Also, I will look forward to all of your awesome, all-natural, cleaning remedies for getting the 50 billion stains that will occur out of your carpets and furniture!
