Dan + Shay Star Shay Mooney's Kids Have The Most Adorable Reaction To News Of Their New Sibling

Singer Shay Mooney and his wife have a third child on the way!

The vocalist and his songwriter wife, Hannah, announced they were expecting their third child, and this time it was another boy.

The couple announced this news in a video posted on their social media accounts on Friday. The short and sweet video featured their two sons, Asher and Ames, who both voiced their wish for a sister. However, when Hannah announced that it was going to be a boy, they took the news in stride.

Although they didn't explicitly state the date the new one would arrive, they speculated that it would be around winter.

Read on for more details.

The 30-year-old singer and his wife, Hannah, took to their Instagram to announce that they were expecting their third son. The couple already shares sons, Asher, five years old, and Ames, two.

In a sweet clip posted on their social media, Hannah asks her sons if they are getting a baby brother or sister. Both share that they want a sister, but they take the news in stride when she announces otherwise.

"I wanted a sister," Asher says.

"I know, baby," the former Miss Arkansas reassured him, adding, "God knows what we need, and God decided you needed another baby brother because you're such a good big brother to Amesy."

"But does he know I want a girl, so is he gonna give a girl baby?" the kindergartner sweetly asks.

Like his older brother, Ames also wished for a girl. However, he quickly shrugs off the news and even sings sweetly into his mother's belly.

"Mooney Baby #3!" the couple captioned the video. "Thankful. Excited. Tired."

The Dan+Shay singer married Hannah in 2017, a year after he proposed to her. The wedding ceremony took place on his parent's farm in Arkansas, and the honeymoon was in Cancun, Mexico.

In an interview with ET, Mooney shared that he picked up several wedding planning lessons from his bandmate, Dan Smyers, whose wedding was five months before his.

"I watched Dan go through [wedding planning], you know. He kind of let Abby take the reins, and that's exactly what I'm doing," Mooney said. "I feel it's always smart to let your ladies take the reins!"

He concluded, "I'm definitely in the background, but if she wants my input, I'll say something, act like I'm wise about it. 'Oh, I think that color of beige is nice.'"

The couple welcomed their first child, Asher James, in 2017– the same year they had their wedding.

Two years later, they disclosed that they were expecting another boy, Ames Alexander, born in 2020.

Ahead of Ames' arrival, Mooney told ET that he was " a little more educated" than he was when his first son was born.

"The first time was just kind of 'hold on to your seat and see what happens and learn as you go,' but this time I know what I'm doing a little bit more," he said. "I know how to change a diaper -- I'm one of the best in the world."

He also released a song in 2017 which explored his experience of becoming a dad. He opened up to People about the meaning of his lyrics.

"I was about to have my kid [when we worked on the song], so a lot of emotions were stirring around," he told the outlet at the time. "We were in the room with a couple of other dads that had just become new dads."

In 2021, Mooney and his bandmate, Smyers, released a track titled "Glad You Exist." The track was a song expressing gratitude for their fans and friends who had stuck with them over the years. They also shared that the song wasn't only a song but was also a message.

"It's a message of gratitude and hope. A message to everyone in our lives: our fans, our friends, our families, to remind them all how grateful we are to be on the planet simultaneously," they wrote.

"It's truly remarkable when you think about it. Like many others, we've spent most of the past year searching for answers and a sense of normalcy, but finding comfort in memories of better days (that we all know will return soon)."
