2. Kaye Abad and Paul Jake Castillo’s baby boy, JoaquinOn December 22, just a few days before Christmas, the actress welcomed son Pio Joaquin to this world, which, coincidentally, was also her husband Paul Jake’s birthday (notice that they share initials, too?). No doubt the month of December will become extra special for them as it is also Kaye and Paul’s wedding anniversary month. Congrats to the new family!

6. LJ Moreno and Jimmy Alapag’s third child, Calen AsherADVERTISEMENT - CONTINUE READING BELOWThe actress first announced that she was expecting her third child last June. “3 is definitely our number!” she said in the Instagram announcement, which featured a meme starring her two children, Ian and Keona. (It probably alluded to her husband Jimmy Alapag’s jersey number "3".) In October, the couple welcomed their son, Calen Asher. LJ would later reveal on her Instagram account that it wasn’t an easy pregnancy, so we’re glad that she’s now healthy and recuperating well.
