<p id=”par-6_37″>In the comments section of Alex Drummond’s post, Ree Drummond’s family and friends weighed in on the happy news. Alex was just 9 when <em>The Pioneer Woman</em> first aired, so fans watched her grow up on television.</p>
<p id=”par-7_17″>Ree wrote, “Beyond happy for you two!! (And for the whole family!) Love you, Alex and Mauricio!”</p>
<p id=”par-8_21″>Alex’s sister Paige penned, “So happy I could cry! Can’t wait to be an auntie!!! I love you guys so much.”</p>
<p id=”par-9_63″>“We’re so excited and have been anxiously waiting for you to make your announcement. We love this little one so much already and can hardly wait to meet in a few months. I keep saying to your Papa Bill, ‘you’re going to be a Great Grandpa!’ We love you so much and are beyond happy for this precious blessing,” Ree’s stepmother Patsy wrote.</p>
<p id=”par-10_23″>Mauricio’s mother, Martha Moreno, stated, “I’m very happy for you, Alex, and Mauricio. We are so blessed. I’m going to be a grandmother!”</p>
<p id=”par-11_11″>In response, Ree wrote, “Grandmother Sisters!! We will take turns spoiling.”</p>

<p id=”par-12_24″><em>The Pioneer Woman</em> Ree Drummond subsequently published a blog post about Alex Drummond’s pregnancy. She couldn’t contain her happiness over this exciting new experience.</p>
<p id=”par-13_33″>“I think I’ll let my perfect granddog George be the first to share. Check out his bandana,” Ree wrote. George, Alex and Mauricio’s golden retriever, donned a scarf with the message “big bro.”</p>
<p id=”par-14_47″>“Oh my gosh. Alex is pregnant! My first baby is having her first baby. My child is going to have a child. It’s surreal, and I’m sure all of you grandparents can relate to the feeling of momentarily leaving your body upon hearing similar news,” Ree wrote.</p>
<p id=”par-15_31″>She continued, “The baby is due around New Year’s Day. I don’t know how this is possible, considering I’m only 31 years old. How can I be a grandmother at 31?”</p>
<p id=”par-16_57″>“I’m getting back on the rowing machine so I can be a cool, hip, and fit granny; I’m getting started back with Pilates so I can be a limber, stretchy, and strong granny. I’m going to buy a bright red Trans-Am so I can be a young, awesome, and cool granny. Just kidding on that last part.”</p>
