She’s a model mama — again!

Marisa Miller and her husband Griffin Guess welcomed their second child — another boy — on Friday, May 29, she confirms to PEOPLE exclusively.

Born at 11:23 p.m. in Santa Cruz, California, son Grayson Lee Bazyl Guess weighed 8 lbs., 14 oz., and measured 21 inches long. He joins big brother Gavin Lee, 2½.

“My son Grayson is healthy and such a sweet baby. I feel so blessed and excited to see both my boys grow up together,” the actress, 36, tells PEOPLE.

“I felt very prepared for labor this time around. I was a little anxious as to when it would happen, though. Having a toddler at home, you have more to organize to make sure everything is taken care of while you’re gone at the hospital.”

Although the new mama admits labor was “so intense and the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life,” the couple received quite the surprise when their son was born in the caul, meaning his face and head were completely enclosed in the amniotic sac.

“In honor of such a cool thing, we gave him the second middle name Bazyl, which means Kingly,” Guess tells PEOPLE. “The veiled birth’s meaning is coined as ‘Kings by right,’ so we felt it was a perfect opportunity to make his name reflect a cool story like this. And yes, that is a dimple on the baby’s smiling face!”

Adds Miller, “I had such an amazing support system at the hospital and my family, I felt totally taken care of.”

In an exclusive statement to PEOPLE in November, the actress announced she was expecting again.

“Being a mother has been the biggest blessing in my life. To get to experience it all over again is really exciting,” she said.

And things got even sweeter when the couple found out they would be welcoming their second son.

“It will be awesome for Gavin to have a buddy,” Miller told PEOPLE. “I never had brothers, so raising a boy has been awesome.”

“I got him a baby doll, so he gives the baby a bottle and he’ll talk to him and tell me, ‘I want to give him the toy, I want to chase him,’ ” Miller said. “For a while, the baby was in his tummy, then after he got older and he really started to see my belly, then he started to understand what I was saying.”

It’s a fifth baby girl for Andrea Canning!

The NBC correspondent, 42, and her husband, USMC Lieutenant Colonel Tony Bancroft, welcomed daughter Elle Corbin on Wednesday, May 27.

Weighing in at 8 lbs., 5 oz., the new addition joins big sisters Georgia Rapalje, 15 months, Christina Margaret, 2½, Charlotte Brewster, 5, and Anna Katherine, 6, at home.

“Everyone’s doing great. We’re just very excited,” the Dateline correspondent tells Today. “The girls are old enough now where they really know what’s going on, so it’s a little different this time around.”

Andrea Thompson

Still, “when you have fewer kids, you notice the difference more. The more you have, the less you notice a big change in family dynamics. With this many kids, you have to just bounce back. As long as everybody’s healthy, mom’s healthy, baby’s healthy, you just got to get back into the swing of things.”

But with five daughters under the age of 6, Canning admits she’s ready for a permanent break.

“[This] was a little unexpected since I am 42 now,” she said when announcing her pregnancy in January. “This is a classic example of what happens when you’re chasing the one sex you don’t have — a boy in our case! This is the last one — we’re done!”

Bethany Hamilton is officially on board with motherhood.

The surfing champion and husband Adam Dirks have welcomed their first child, a son, she announced Monday on Twitter.

“Blessed to welcome our son, Tobias, into the world! #astokedmomma,” she Tweeted, along with a family photo of the couple gazing at their bundled up newborn.

Hamilton, who lost her left arm to a tiger shark at 13, announced she was pregnant with a son in a video she posted to YouTube in February.

“It’s been a pretty crazy last four months, finding out that we’re going to be parents and life’s going to be changing,” the mom-to-be, 25, said.

Blessed to welcome our son, Tobias, into the world! #stokedmomma pic.twitter.com/8YrS45b971

— Bethany Hamilton (@bethanyhamilton) June 15, 2015

But despite the obvious difficulties she faces, Hamilton is up for any challenges. “I’ve been thinking about it, but I often forget that I have one arm,” she said during the announcement clip.

“When I think about it, a squirming baby and changing the diaper … I think how I live life, just adjust and adapt to different things, especially things that are a lot easier with two arms.”

And Hamilton has been doing just that: Her growing baby belly has not stopped her from continuing to surf all throughout the pregnancy.

“It’s such a weird feeling to be surfing in the ocean while my baby is moving around inside me,” she told PEOPLE in March. “It’s a cool feeling, but I noticed my balance is a little off and I fall more, so I’m having to focus.”

Fortunately, her husband, a youth minister, couldn’t be more excited about daddy duty. In February, Dirks admitted he’s looking forward to staying back on the sand with their son while Hamilton is out in the water.

“As we start traveling more, getting into surfing, I know I’m going to be there to support my wife and support our family and do what I can … changing diapers on the beach while Bethany is out there surfing some gnarly wave,” he said, adding he was “stoked to be a dad.”

This baby batch is fully cooked!

Actor Benedict Cumberbatch is a first-time father after welcoming a son with his wife, Sophie Hunter, his rep confirms to PEOPLE.

“Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter are delighted to announce the arrival of their beautiful son,” the rep said in a statement. “We would kindly ask everyone to respect the family’s privacy during these next few precious weeks”

Two months after announcing their engagement, Cumberbatch’s rep confirmed to PEOPLE in January that the couple were starting a family together.

“I am delighted to confirm that Benedict and Sophie are expecting their first child,” his rep said at the time.

A baby on the way didn’t mean wedding plans were put on hold: The couple tied the knot on Valentine’s Day in Mottistone, located on the Isle of Wight in England.

Following the nuptials, Cumberbatch, 38, and Hunter, a theatre director and actress, focused on preparing for the arrival of their first child.

But the dad-to-be was anything but anxious about pending parenthood. In February, he told PEOPLE he was “not nervous at all” while attending the Oscars with his pregnant wife.

So, I pull night duty, so that she can sleep and I keep him with me and will take some of the pre-pumped breast cheese, whatever you call it.”

Surprise: It’s a boy!

Actress Jennifer Love Hewitt has welcomed her second child with her husband, actor Brian Hallisay.

Son Atticus James Hallisay arrived Wednesday, the actress’ rep confirms to PEOPLE.

Thirteen months after welcoming their first child, now 18-month-old daughter Autumn James, the couple announced they were expecting another baby — and delivery surprise — together.

“I feel my best when I’m pregnant, which means I probably should have 18 children — it won’t happen — but I do feel good,” Hewitt, 36, told American Baby in April.

Despite now having two under two, Hewitt, who was named the face of Palmer’s pregnancy products, and Hallisay, 36, aren’t fazed by the hard work ahead.

“We didn’t have a night nurse, we didn’t have a nanny,” the former Criminal Minds star told PEOPLE in May. “We haven’t ever had any of that stuff. It’s been really interesting to do it all ourselves.”

Justin Baldoni is officially a dad — both on and off screen.

The Jane the Virgin star and his wife Emily welcomed their first child, a daughter, on Saturday, June 27.

“Welcome to the world sweet Maiya Grace,” Baldoni announced on Twitter.

In February, during a short film similar to their viral engagement video, the couple shared their exciting news with the world: they were going to be parents!

After channeling scenes from his character’s path to parenthood and breaking the news to family and friends over video chat, the parents-to-be sat down in front of the camera. But although they filmed themselves finding out the sex of their baby on the way, they ultimately chose to keep it a secret from their fans.

However, holding out for a delivery surprise wasn’t the only thing Baldoni couldn’t wait for. When it came to his wife’s maternity wear, the actor was doing his best to keep himself from splurging at the store.

“Her pants don’t fit anymore. I think it’s adorable,” he told PEOPLE in March.

“I want to go buy her a bunch of pregnancy clothes, but I don’t want to make the mistake and get the wrong stuff. I tread cautiously. I always make sure that I can be supportive in every way that I can.”

Drew Sidora is officially a mom for the second time — albeit much earlier than she was expecting.

The Hindsight actress and her husband Ralph Pittman welcomed son Machai David Pittman at 3:38 a.m. on Tuesday, June 30, Sidora’s rep confirms to PEOPLE exclusively.

Machai was originally expected to be born in August. But after three weeks of hospitalization, Sidora’s labor was induced and now “mother and baby are in good health and resting,” according to the rep.

“At 4 lbs. 4.5 ounces and 16.5 inches, Machai is truly a miracle,” the rep continues. “We’re asking for prayers and wishing her and her husband the best.”

Already a mom to Josiah, her 4-year-old son from a previous relationship, Sidora, 30, says a lot was taken into consideration when choosing a name for her new baby boy.

Looking for a name that “went well with Josiah,” Sidora and her husband turned to the Bible for inspiration.

“We would consider a name and then we would read the story and be like, ‘Well, he was eaten by the lions. We don’t want that name,’ ” she told PEOPLE in May. “We thought about Jayden, but Josiah let us know, ‘I don’t like that name. I don’t want that to be my brother’s name!’ But when we told him about Machai, [which is the name of a prophet in the Bible,] he said, ‘I like that name.’ ”

For now, Sidora is “taking time to focus on her family,” but will be retuning to work very soon, her rep tells PEOPLE.

In addition to her roles in The Choir Director and The Preacher’s Son (both film adaptations of Carl Weber‘s New York Times best-selling books), Sidora is also on deadline to complete her forthcoming cookbook and planning the annual Girl Summit for her DreamMakers charity.

“She has truly embraced and loves being a working mom,” says the rep.

It’s a girl!

Model Anne V., née Anne Vyalitsyna, is a first-time mom after welcoming a daughter with her boyfriend, Yahoo! exec Adam Cahan, on Thursday, June 25, she announced Wednesday on Instagram.

“Welcome to the world baby Alaska! Your little feet absolutely rocked my world, I’ve never been so in love! @acahan and I couldn’t be more proud,” the new mama captioned a snapshot of her newborn’s foot.

Although the mom-to-be — who celebrated her original due date on June 20 — never confirmed the sex, she posted subtle hints on social media, including a photo of her posing with pink balloons and a group of friends.

Vyalitsyna kept her baby bump under wraps for months, finally announcing her pregnancy in March on her 29th birthday.

“On this birthday I couldn’t feel luckier, happier & more grateful. [Adam] & I couldn’t be more excited for you,” she captioned an ultrasound image of the baby’s feet.

Weeks before welcoming her baby girl, Vyalitsyna gave her followers a glimpse into her baby shower by posting a shot of cake — complete with a cute baby face.

Cahan, 43, senior vice president of emerging products and technology at the tech giant, is already dad to two daughters from his previous relationship.

Things just got real: Tamera Mowry-Housley is a mom of two!

The actress and The Real co-host welcomed her second child, a daughter, with husband Adam Housley on Wednesday, July 1, her rep confirms to PEOPLE exclusively.

Ariah Talea Housley (her first name is pronounced like Mariah) — born at 2:54 p.m, weighing 10 lbs., 2 oz and measuring 20.5 inches — joins big brother Aden John Tanner, 2½.

“We are beyond overjoyed and blessed with our beautiful baby girl. Aden already made a welcome video for her,” the proud new parents tell PEOPLE.

It was Mowry-Housley, 36, who announced in January that the couple were expecting another baby, but it was the Fox News senior correspondent who spilled the beans on the baby’s sex.

Although the mom-to-be wanted to keep it a delivery surprise, her co-hosts convinced her to find out. “I am scared out of my mind. We are having a girl!” the dad-to-be announced on the show.

There was, however, one person that didn’t need any big reveals on Mowry-Housley’s pregnancy — because she already knew! “We have this thing where we wait until eight weeks because we want to make sure everything is okay,” Mowry-Housley told PEOPLE in March of her relationship with twin sister Tia Mowry-Hardrict.

“But my sister gets it because we’re twins. She just called me and she was like, ‘Are you pregnant?’ And I said, ‘Yep, I am!’ ”

Once Mowry-Housley knew she was adding a baby girl to her brood, she couldn’t contain her excitement. “I love fashion and makeup, and now I get to have a little fun,” she told PEOPLE in February.

Now that it was her second pregnancy, the mom-to-be — who was showered with love from family and friends during a pretty in pink celebration in April — was taking a laid back approach to the entire experience.

“Every woman carries pregnancy differently,” she told American Baby. “I carry big. It doesn’t matter how much I eat or exercise, I make big babies.”

We are so blessed and excited right now. Ariah Talea Housley was born at 2:54…she looks so much like Aden. :)
