“This doesn’t seem real… my family is absolutely everything to me and I can’t thank God enough for this beautiful blessing!” he wrote.

“The last year has been so unbelievably tough, to know we’ll be a family of FOUR by the end of it… well, I’ll be honest, makes we wanna cry buckets!!!”

The couple also shared that Roman is excited to have someone his own size to play with after they waited until they had a scan picture to tell him the news.

No doubt he’ll be a great big brother!
