Shawn Johnson and her husband, Andrew East, are parents for the second time, and it's a boy!
The happy couple announced the news through their children's apparel and toy brand Teddy & Bear's social media accounts on Tuesday, July 20. The 2nd-time mother teased her fans and said that the brand's accounts would indicate when she gave birth... and their baby son is finally here! Mom and dad have not announced their new son's name yet, but they are clearly celebrating.
"We're so excited to announce a new friend is here!" on the brand's IG story slide read, while another said, "Mom and baby are doing well and we can't wait to meet our new friend!"
Expanding The Family
East and Johnson were married in 2016 and they share a 1-year-old daughter Drew Hazel.
"We are so happy to welcome our little man into the world," the couple said in a statement to PEOPLE. "We are loving life as a family of four and soaking up every minute."
The social media-savvy family documented their pregnancy, including a wet and wild gender reveal that ruined more than a few white t-shirts. The couple, who suffered a miscarriage in 2017, were ecstatic when they learned that Drew would become a big sister to a baby brother. "A BOY đź’™ @drewhazeleast you are going to have a BABY BROTHER!!" she wrote at the time.

They first announced that they were expecting in January. "Here we go again," she hilariously wrote on social media. Johnson and East decided to do this pregnancy a little differently and squeezed in one last vacation. They took a “babymoon,” a play on honeymoon, to a beautiful Mexican resort. “Celebrating this babes ? #babymoon,” she wrote alongside her bumping photo.
