Now Lauren's showing —got one on the way. That's —" he then pauses and looks at Lauren before adding, "five under 10. Hey what can I say. Yeah life changes. You wake up ain't nothing the same. Yeah life changes."
He wrote in the caption, "Here we go again! We’ve got some really excited big sisters in our house. God is so good."

Back in 2021, Thomas and Lauren announced they were expecting their fourth.
Thomas told “Extra” at the time, “We were skiing in Colorado a couple a months ago, we were on a ski lift and my wife was feeling very nauseous and we all kind of joked, ‘You’re probably pregnant,’ thinking that she was obviously not and two days later, we took a pregnancy test and there were two pink lines immediately.”
He went on, “I was on stage in Texas last week and just decided it was time to announce to the crowd we were playing for, it was really special, my wife’s whole family was there, what a crazy thing to get to announce this year… We feel very blessed and excited.”
