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…

First of, CONGRATULATIONS on your pending arrival. I’m a Mom myself to a 15 month old little girl named Emily.
I’ve been meaning to email you both since I stumbled upon your site. I’ve been a follower since (2008) I was on matenity leave (in Canada you get 1 year off! Woohoo!). Anyway, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your site and great reno ideas. You definitely inspired me to make some drastic changes at home (painting the front door), rethinking our paint colours around the house to make it more cohesive (we’ll be repainting this spring and using two of your home colours –water chestnut and gentle tide), reorganizing and renovating our home office, etc.
Anyway, if you ever visit Toronto, feel free to crash our pad.
Congrats again and more power to you both for inspiring and educating your loyal followers ;)
Lili says
OMG!!!! I can’t believe it! I have been reading this for a while, and I have been greatly anticipating this moment! Hm… Which bedroom is baby going to be in??? OOh, I can’t wait until we find out what you guys are having!!

I’m so excited for you two! I was just thinking earlier this week that it looked like you were relocating your office and thinking there might be a announcement on the way! Congratulations!!!
Amanda S. says
Congratulations!! I’m sure Burger will be happy to have a sibling! ;)
Ginger says
Congrats!!!!!!! So exciting!! I’ve followed your blog for a long time but I’ve never commented. :) Our first baby was born May 11th, so I think it’s a great month to have a baby! Hope you’re feeling well! How did you tell everyone? :)
