The couple, who had wanted to have a younger sibling for Izzy, announced their pregnancy in August after Butcher was spotted sporting a baby bump while out in Los Angeles.

A source told PEOPLE the two were “very happy to expect another baby.”

They wished for a younger sibling for their daughter,” the insider said. “They live a pretty low-key life. They are all about family. Paige is very close to Eddie’s kids.”

The source added, “They are a very special and happy family. They vacation and spend holidays together. Paige loves being a mom and is very involved. She takes her daughter to the park and for play dates.”

September was a big month for the couple: Not only did Murphy’s rep confirm the two were engaged, but Butcher revealed the sex of their baby on the way.

“It’s going to be a boy,” she told TMZ while out shopping.
