Last year was an exciting one for many celebrity families. Many of them were happy to receive little bundles of joy, and there are few things we love more than a birth announcement. (Pregnancy announcements, you're close behind!)

There were babies born in the hospital with the “help” of their father (we're winking at you, Jason Kelce!), babies born at home, rainbow babies, babies born through a surrogate, and those who were completely surprising to them. Paris Hilton shocked the world twice in 2023 when she gave birth to son Phoenix at the beginning of the year and daughter London at the end! (Will she and Carter Reum welcome baby No. 3 in 2024? Only time will tell.)
There were babies we really got to “meet” and “know” like Keke Palmer's son Leo, Kaley Cuoco's daughter Tildy, and Shawn Johnson's son Bear. And then there are the babies who spend their childhoods (understandably) private, like Rihanna and A$` Rocky's son Riot Rose and Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker's son Rocky Thirteen.
No matter when, how and how much we find out, the news of a new celebrity baby always puts a smile on our faces. And, more importantly, a smile on the new parents' faces. And that's why we love it when they share some of that joy with the world, because, come on, we'll take as many little second-hand portions of happiness as we can get!
That's why we're keeping an eye on all the stars whose families are growing this year. As we said last year, you can always refer back to this list when you want to brighten your day, because cute baby faces and beaming parents should be just the ticket. And just a few days into 2024, there are already parents we have to congratulate!

“I’m in my girl mom era,” she said on her podcast in January. “We had the twins.”
Yes, you understand that correctly. Lowry has six sons and now a daughter. Although Lowry didn't reveal the babies' birthdays or names, she did share that she had a cesarean section and her fallopian tubes were severed.
“I cried a lot – mostly because I was absolutely terrified of having a C-section,” she said.
Lowry is also mother to Isaac, whom she shares with ex Jo Riveria, Lincoln, whom she shares with ex Javi Marroquin, Lux and Creed, whom she shares with ex Chris Lopex, and Rio, whom she also shares with Scott.

Back in July 2023, Crawley cheekily announced that the family's laundry facility would be getting “a lot cuter.”
“This is REALLY what my dreams are made of!” she said. “I can't tell you how hard it was to keep this secret! This is a journey that Ryan and I have held dear to our hearts as we have navigated the uncertain world of IVF and everything that comes with it up to this point.”
