Danica McKellar of the Wonder Years Is Expecting
It’s nice to hear when a child star is doing well. Danica McKellar,35 of the “Wonder Years” and her husband Mike Verta are expecting their first child this autumn.
Danica told People.com:
“I’m nearing the end of my first trimester and I’m so excited – I’ve been bursting to tell people,”
“I was in the middle of a really intense deadline for my book,” explains McKellar, whose third tome, Hot X: Algebra Exposed, comes out in August.
McKellar, 35, who played Winnie on The Wonder Years, also said:
“I wanted to put off the [pregnancy] test because I didn’t want any distractions. That only lasted a day – I couldn’t stop thinking about it and I caved! You can’t try to put that off.”
The actress and mathematician couldn’t believe she was pregnant.
“When you do take the home pregnancy test, it doesn’t quite seem real,”
“But when you see the baby and the heartbeat on the ultrasound, it’s so incredible.”
“Me and Mike looked at each other and we could not stop the tears,” she says. “We are so happy.”
Awww such a cute story. Congrats to Danica and her hubby!
