1+1=3

My lovely friends and readers, Hanukkah and Christmas came early for us this year and our most treasured gift is scheduled to arrive in June. I've been bursting with joy and excitement (and exhaustion!) for the last three and a half months and I'm so thrilled to share the news with you today...just in time for Christmas. The Little, as we're calling our peanut, cannot imagine how much we love him...or her!

I hope you all have as happy and wonderful a holiday season as we are enjoying!
Merry Christmas!

This is what happiness looks like...
