Katherine Heigl Announces Pregnancy Following 2 Adoptions

(CBS SF/AP) – Katherine Heigl has announced she is pregnant with a baby boy due in January 2017.

The child will be the third for the 37-year-old actress and her 36-year-old husband, musician Josh Kelley. The couple has two adopted daughters, 7-year-old Naleigh Moon and 4-year-old Adelaide Marie Hope.

The "Knocked Up" actress (no pun intended) announced the birth on Instagram and her lifestyle website, www.thoseheavenlydays.com. She said she and Kelley are "full of high hopes and bubbling anticipation." Heigl said she and Kelley were considering adoption again, fostering or pregnancy, if it was possible.

Kelley said on Instagram he "can't wait to hold this little nugget."

Heigl shot to stardom on the ABC hit "Grey's Anatomy" and in movies like "Knocked Up" and "27 Dresses."

She's set to star as a defense lawyer in the upcoming CBS drama, "Doubt."
