"This was definitely a surprise for all of us," Stewart told TODAY Parents. "We haven't been on any type of birth control — we were just doing what married couples do and here comes our surprise. Because my husband is a natural comedian, I knew his reaction would be funny."

"My husband is a real laid back kind of guy," said Stewart. "When we face tough situations, he's always the one to calm me down with his humor. Laughter is his way of distracting me from worrying — I love him for that."

So what does Charles think of the baby on the way now that reality has set in?

"My wife and I declared on New Year's Day that 2018 was going to be our year, so when I saw the pregnancy test, I blacked out," Charles joked. "I thought it would be impossible to reach the goals we set, but now I think we can still do it. We just have to save a little more for diapers."
