“Finally tonight, some good news 💕 We are filled with gratitude and awe in sharing baby girl will join us this summer.

What a brave thing it is to want a love like this. We cannot wait to become parents,” captioned the post of a carousel of pictures, which includes sonogram pictures and the expectant parents embracing and celebrating.
