You're Welcome, World....

After five years of marriage and close to 10 years together as a couple, Ross and I are happy to announce that we have procreated. We figure that this will be the most beautiful, talented, and intelligent child to ever be born, but we may already be a bit biased. We decided we were ready to have a baby this past winter and after a summer of "living it up" we were lucky enough to get pregnant pretty much right away. Though some couples don't always reveal their pregnancy status until after the first trimester, we're having a hard time keeping our excitement in and have begun telling family and friends. We also figure that once our friends see me out at various events without a glass of wine in my hand, the jig will be up. Our due date is early June (probably the 6th but the doctor has yet to confirm) and we look forward to the day when we welcome our little boy or girl (affectionately known as Baby Hoss) into the family.

So we know what everyone's next question is: When are you moving from your tiny, one-bedroom apartment in the middle of one of the busiest neighborhoods in Manhattan? Well...we're not. Not yet anyway. We plan to stay in the apartment we've been living in for the last five years through most of baby Hoss's first year. We do realize most people will think this is crazy, but we figure this is NYC and there are a lot of other people a whole lot crazier than us so we can't be that bad. We don't think it will be easy, but we have ideas on how to make it work that I'll be chronicling here so keep reading!
