FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

RALEIGH, NC – Jay and Colleen Glatfelter are thrilled to announce that they are expecting a new addition to their family in the early summer of 2014.  This will be the first child for both of them and the first grandchild on both sides of the family.  Baby Glatfelter, hereby known as “Baby G,” will be arriving in June.

“I’m so excited to finally become a dad,” shares dad-to-be Jay.  “I can’t wait to take him or her on their first trip to the Lego Store someday.”

Baby G is expected on or about June 14, 2014.  He or she will join big “sister” Zoe the cat, who is already dreading the potential matching outfits that mom will dress her and baby in for the rest of her life.  Colleen has been blessed with a healthy, easy pregnancy thus far and hopes the next 27 weeks are just as kind to her as these first 13 weeks have been.

“I feel great,” says Colleen.  “My first 11 weeks were filled with non-stop eating and sleeping.  Nothing to complain about there!”

Jay and Colleen have been married since April 29, 2011.  Jay, a manager at the Apple Store, is one half of the podcasting duo Jay and Jack while Colleen, an employee at the Wake County Bar Association, is a blogger who appears on the podcasts MetroBuzz and The Tribe, A Survivor Podcast.  The couple lives in Raleigh, North Carolina with their adorable cat Zoe.
