It’s been a big few months for the couple from Gävle, Sweden.

The pair announced in September that they are expecting their first child — a boy.

“Hi son, I hope you get the beauty from your mother and the ability to sleep from your father. We are so happy and can’t wait for your arrival,” Markstrom wrote in an Instagram post on September 5.
