New York Knicks player Amar’e Stoudemire and his wife Alexis have announced that they are expecting their fourth child together.

The couple, who were engaged in Paris in June and married on Dec. 12, are expecting the latest addition to their family in the spring.  They currently have three children together – Ar’e, 7, Amar’e Jr., 6, and Assata, 4.

“We’re blessed that we were able to extend our family.  We’re both huge on having a nice size family.  It was something we’ve been talking about for a while.  It happened naturally and at the right time so it all worked out,” the New York Knicks forward, 30, told PEOPLE.

Stoudemire and his wife, 29, have not found out the sex of their baby yet.
