Chad Lowe waited for just the right day to tell Twitter fans he and wife Kim are going to have another baby. Once the weather was perfect the Pretty Little Liars actor spilled the pregnancy beans — only to be inundated with replies!

“Wow! The weather is so beautiful here in SoCal!! Seems like a good day to spread some great news…” Chad Lowe began Monday.  ”Wait for it…wait for it…”

Then finally the 44-year-old tweeted, “My wife @ikimlowe and I are expecting our second child this fall! We are beyond thrilled and excited!”

Chad Lowe, already father to their 3-year-old daughter Mabel, went on to talk with fans offering congratulatory wishes, as well as answer a few questions:

Thank you all so much for your kind words of congratulations! Wish I could respond to each n every one. Please know I read all of messages.

“@TWoPFan Awesome! Hoping for a boy or girl or do you want to be surprised?” We’re blessed with whatever God has in store!

Congratulations from us as well, and best wishes to Chad Lowe and wife Kim for a healthy pregnancy!
