{Celebrating on the night I told Aron the news}
We have a happy announcement we’ve been dying to share:
we’re expecting a baby!
A little girl or boy will arrive on the scene toward the end of summer, and we are thrilled. I’m 15 weeks along and have been feeling great.
We can’t wait to meet this little person whose silhouette we’ve glimpsed in ultrasounds and whose little hands have been waving all about. Aron said he or she appeared to be doing the “big finish” of a tap routine when we checked in at 11 weeks (and then he did a little rendition of his own for me when the doctor stepped out and that was pretty cute, too).
There’s so much to look forward to!

How wonderful!!! Congratulations Aron & Ashley!
Wonderful news!! I'm especially anxious to hear how you handle traveling in the future with baby. I doubt it'll slow you down.

congratulations, so exciting!
Congratulations! Best wishes for a happy, healthy pregnancy and little babe.
Wow–this is so awesome! (And wonderfully distracting–I'm having a really hard time paying attn to my work, but it's so fun to see all of your comments!)
Congratulations! It's a fun (and often sleepless) club to join! I can't wait for you to start sharing the hip cute cool kid clothes resources you discover. I am always grateful for other parent resources because they are the best. There is so much kid stuff out there but most of it is ugly or lame. Brace yourself for being marketed to, ad nauseum! I will always remember working at Amazon when we launched the baby tab, and realizing just what a huge advertising machine preyed on new parents and what little we really "needed" and the rest was frosting. Have a great pregnancy!
Ahhhh! Best news I've heard all day. So unbelievably happy for you two
Jazz Hands! Being a momma of two myself, I couldn't be more thrilled for you. Get ready for the biggest love and greatest heartache you've ever experienced (I love my kids so much it makes my heart absolutely ache). Buckle up!
oh what happy, happy news!
Congratulations for the thousandth time! This kid is a darn lucky one.
Such wonderful news!!! I'm so happy for you both!
oxo
Congratulations you two – how exciting! glad you're feeling well and I look forward to hearing all about the new addition.

It's so true! It has been such a crazy day at work, and this is really making me smile in spite of it!
awwwwwww Congratulations to the both of you! what happy news! both of your families must be so happy.
Congratulations!! You two will be the best parents
Can't wait for all of the pics.
What wonderful news, congratulations! Speaking from experience
having children enhances life. We continued traveling the world with our kids. They have always (even as babies) been the most amazing travelers. I look forward to following your exciting 2011 journey. BTW I am really looking forward to your travelogue on India!!!
I'll happily add to the 70+ comments – congratulations. How exciting!!
so exciting, can't wait to read more updates about this!

Thank you!
Congrats you two!! Such amazing news!
congratulations, ashley and aron!
Congrats!! As a mother of two little ones under the age of 5, I have to admit I usually read your posts with a nostalgic and tiny bit jealous feeling. (Remembering back to my life without kids, traveling around, eating at cool restaurants, with no temper tantrums or diaper nightmares involved). But I am so excited for you! A little one will make things more *interesting* but also really really fun.
Congratulations!!!
Congratulations Ashley and Aron, that is amazing news!! And am so happy for you two!
Wow! What a special time! Congratulations!

Look what I've missed!!! OMG, congrats! I guess you are super excited
Good luck with everything!
ashley!!! i somehow missed this and then when i saw your comment about 'comparing milestones' i flipped out! woohoo! congrats girl, i am sooooo thrilled for you both. and it looks like we're due around the same time!!
Missed this and it's probably because I haven't read your blog in some time. Usually save it for home because it contains so many beatiful pictures…
Anyway, that's great new!
Congrats!
Why did you wait to tell your husband? And how did you do it? Is that in another post that I haven't read just yet? If so… I'll keep reading.
How fabulous! How did I miss this post? I'm so happy for the two of you…parenthood is a fabulous journey full of every emotion possible.
Yay!! Congrats!
