The secret is finally out.

After weeks of talking with everyone on the phone and seeing people around town, we can stop hiding. The shackles of secrecy have been lifted. We have proclaimed to the world...WE ARE GOING TO BE PARENTS!!!! Some of you find this to be exciting, some are afraid, some are still trying to comprehend what we have just told you. Yes, Roni, Steve, Chuck, Karen you are going to be grandparents!

We have just returned from our trip to Florida to tell all of Ira's parents and many friends that a new Blecker family member is in the works for July. Everyone is very excited. Mel has a completely new wardrobe to grow into over the next few months and thus far Ira has gained more weight than Mel has. From all of the stories (both good and bad) this is nothing out of the ordinary and we are on the right track.

Melissa has been feeling good and the baby has started to pooch out just a little and it is becoming harder and harder to not notice that Mel is pregnant.

We are very happy to have you all on board now and supporting us in your own ways. For those of you with the "just wait....(fill in the blank with any gross, nasty, or just plain unpleasant experience)" please refrain as we are having a blast on the road to parenthood.

An event worth celebrating, indeed. Thanks for letting us in on your big little secret.

Lets hope Lukas and squirt end up bunking in B2A their first summer at Coleman together. Unless of course squirt ends up in G2A.

xoxo,
josh and nikki
