We want to apologize to all our fans and followers for being MIA the last couple of months, but hopefully you'll forgive us...we were a bit preoccupied, after all!

Our bundle of joy was born on Christmas Day, and we could not have been more thrilled. Talk about a great gift! And don't worry, we'll make sure she doesn't get jipped in the present department as she gets older ;)

Becoming parents has added such an amazing aspect to our marriage. There was a lot of worry in our 20s about whether or not kids would be a good thing for us. We were concerned about how it might affect our stellar relationship, and as D-day grew closer, we wondered more and more about how our little girl would change our lives.

We read a staggering statistic the other day that 67% of couples are unhappy, and many end in divorce, as a result of having children! Yikes! That's a lot of pressure to put on an innocent little baby, don't ya think? I think before we blame the children, we must first look at the stability of the relationship before the baby's arrival.

Yes, it's true that having a baby presents new challenges to a couple, and certainly introduces a level of stress. Sleepless nights can contribute greatly to crabbiness and poor communication the next day. But there are ways around this!

Tony Robbins says that if you have anxiety about something, you must take action so that all anxiety can be removed over the situation. So Aaron and I took action during my pregnancy! We read books on how to start eat/sleep training your baby from day 1. We learned the "cuddle cure", which teaches you a surefire way to calm your baby in mere minutes, or even seconds. And we worked as a team from the beginning to put our book learning into practice.

So before you throw kids into your midst, or even if you already have them and find that the stresses of parenthood are putting a strain on your marriage, learn how to be a team player! Chapter 6, Marriage is a Team Sport, will get you and your partner playing for the same team!

We are so grateful for all our readers and especially love it when they take the time to write in and tell us how the book has made a positive impact in their lives! Thank you to Amy S and Vanessa C for your awesome reviews of Happiest Couple on the Block!

"I am a newlywed, so things in my relationship are still pretty great most of the time, but I want to make sure they stay that way. After I read THC, I started following them on Twitter, and just getting those little reminders every day helps me take a deep breath during those inevitable frustrating or trying moments, and approach them with good humor, a positive attitude, and a little more patience and understanding. The best part, is that even though my husband hasn't read THC (yet), I find that when I respond in this way, I get back the same positive reaction from him!! We are definitely the happiest couple on our block, and we plan on staying that way."

"Relationship advice can be given by many but when it comes from those who have LIVED the experience (like Aaron and Jessica)....those who have gone through the trials and tribulations, the ups and downs.....that is when the advice is golden. Aaron and Jessica have not only a gift for understanding relationships, but a really fun and exciting way of sharing this gift with others. How lucky I was to stumble across their e-book!"
