And now, the daughter of the late Steve Irwin is sharing with her fans the emotional moment she discovered a little bundle of joy would soon be on the way.

“Reflecting on when we found out that we are going to be parents. ❤️ Discovering that I was going to become a mother will forever be a moment where time stood still,” Bindi wrote on Instagram.

“I took a test and ran into the kitchen where Chandler was making us tea. He didn’t hear me come in so I speechlessly watched him pouring the water into my most loved hedgehog mug.

“This news would change the course of our future in the best way. I started crying tears of pure joy and told my sweetheart husband that my test was positive.”

Bindi went on to explain that both she and Chandler were “beaming” and immediately started planning for the massive life change.

“We sat together with tea talking about the future and how we were going to share such wonderful, life changing news with the people that we love,” she penned, adding the couple can’t wait for the baby’s arrival.

“In that short span of time the gorgeous baby I'm carrying became the most important part of our lives.”

In the comments section, Chandler echoed his wife’s sentiments, adding, “And we already love our little Wildlife Warrior with all of our hearts.”
