Edit /etc/hosts.allow and put the following line:
sshd: 123.456.78.9, 192.168.34.5
replace the ip addresses above with your real ip addresses.
Edit /etc/hosts.deny and put the following line:
sshd: ALL
Or better yet:
ALL: ALL

Yes, edit /etc/hosts.allow. You don't need to restart sshd.
The running sshd automatically uses hosts.deny/hosts.allow.
