How I Met Your Mother star Ashley Williams and husband Neil Dodson have announced they are expecting their first child.

Williams is the sister of Nashville’s Kimberly Williams-Paisley, who has two children of her own, Jasper (5) and Huck (7), with her husband Brad Paisley. While the parents-to-be have had their fair share of time around their nephews, they recently announced they are expecting a child of their own.

“After years of waiting for the perfect moment to have a child, we decided to go with this moment instead,” the Something Borrowed actress told People. “And we couldn’t be more thrilled.”

Williams will be starring in TV Land’s upcoming comedy The Gaffigan Show alongside Jim Gaffigan, author of the successful novel Dad is Fat, while Dodson is currently working on completing A Most Violent Year with J.C. Chandor.
