Alec Baldwin's wife Hilaria Thomas is expecting the couple's first child, according to In Touch.

The pair, who wed in June 2012 after a year of dating, are said to be over the moon about their impending arrival.

"They are both so excited and Alex is so in love with her. She says she is so in love with Alec and he tells all her friends that she is the best thing that has ever happened to him," a source told the mag.

The 30 Rock actor, who has daughter Ireland, 17, from his marriage to Kim Basinger, previously expressed his desire for more children to television personality Piers Morgan.

"Have I thought about having more kids? Oh sure, that would be great, that would be heaven, that would be fantastic," he told the talk show host.

We hope they have a little boy! The world always needs more Baldwin boys!
