<p id=”par-1_32″>Just days after Alex Drummond revealed she was expecting her first baby, <em>The Pioneer Woman</em> star <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/ree-drummond/”>Ree Drummond</a>‘s daughter shared a sweet gender reveal. However, her dog George upstaged the unforgettable moment.</p>
<h2 class=”wp-block-heading” id=”h-alex-drummond-and-mauricio-scott-are-having-a”>Alex Drummond and Mauricio Scott are having a…</h2>
<p id=”par-2_31″>On June 23, 2024, Ree Drummond’s firstborn daughter Alex and her husband Mauricio Scott announced they were expecting their first child. The couple married in May 2021 on the Drummond ranch.</p>
<p id=”par-3_39″>Therefore, with great excitement, the couple shared the news on <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/C82apoRpZRF/?hl=en” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a>, that they were welcoming a baby alongside their beloved golden retriever, George. He was a key part of the announcement, wearing a neck scarf that said “big brother.”</p>
<p id=”par-4_32″>On June 30, Alex and Mauricio shared a video in which they revealed their baby’s gender. Again, George was the star of the show, but his eagerness upstaged the big moment. </p>
<p id=”par-5_38″>Alex and Mauricio used cupcakes to reveal if they were having a boy or a girl. George’s role was to bite into the sweet treat so the couple could show the camera the color of the creamy interior.</p>
<p id=”par-6_31″>However, George had other ideas. He bit off so much of the first cupcake that he ate the entire middle, and the couple had to begin again with a second one.</p>
<p id=”par-7_28″>Finally, after a second go-around, Alex and Mauricio revealed they would welcome a baby girl in the first days of 2025. The couple couldn’t contain their excitement.</p>

Ree Drummond: ‘Pioneer Woman’ Star Vows to Be a ‘Cool Granny’ After Sharing Daughter Alex’s Pregnancy News </a>

<p id=”par-13_29″><a href=”https://people.com/ree-drummond-says-finding-out-grandma-felt-totally-different-exclusive-8670593#:~:text=Ree%20Drummond%20has%20known%20that,first%20child%20%E2%80%94%20Ree’s%20first%20grandchild.” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>People Magazine</a> spoke to <em>The Pioneer Woman</em>, Ree Drummond, about this exciting new phase of her life. The Food Network personality said this surprise came at an extraordinary time.</p>
<p id=”par-14_60″>“Gosh, it feels totally different than I thought it would feel,” she explains. “Since we just kind of <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/the-pioneer-woman-ree-drummond-gives-fans-glimpse-at-empty-nest-life-with-ladd.html/?swcfpc=1″>became empty-nesters</a>, <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/ree-drummond-begs-kids-please-come-back-admits-husband-ladd-making-her-do-this.html/?swcfpc=1″>Ladd [Drummond] and I</a> feel like we just finished raising our kids — not even finished! A couple of them are in college, so we’re still raising our kids.” The <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/the-pioneer-woman-star-ree-drummond-celebrated-christmas-without-children.html/?swcfpc=1″>couple are parents</a> to Alex, Paige, Bryce, Todd, and Jamar.</p>
<p id=”par-15_62″>She continued, “We weren’t necessarily in a big rush to enter the grandparent stage. I thought when I heard the news eventually, whenever that would be, that I would feel more, ‘Oh no, here it comes.’ But instead, what I think about most is — this is my honest answer — just how happy I am for my daughter and her husband.”</p>
<p id=”par-16_56″>Ree concluded, “Thinking back on the days when my kids were babies and those years, I mean, I can hardly look at old pictures because it was just such a precious, fun time. I’m just so happy that she is going to enter into that period of her life. There’s just nothing better in the world.”</p>
<p id=”par-17_14″>Ree Drummond stars in <em>The Pioneer Woman</em>. The series airs on The Food Network.</p>
