Michelle Monaghan previously touted her baby bump on the red carpet and the streets of Los Angeles. Finally, she’s popped!

The “True Detective” actress and graphic artist husband Peter White welcomed their second child the day before Halloween. Their baby was a boy named Tommy Francis.

Little Tommy joins his 4-year-old sister Willow Katherine, rounding out Monaghan’s bunch. The new mom can now pour her attention toward another bundle of joy. “Every day feels like Christmas. [Motherhood] is such a profound love,” Monaghan told People.

In 2010, Monaghan said motherhood is also a balancing act. “On my kitchen counter sits a Kitchen Aid mixer, a potty seat, and a small pile of scripts,” Monaghan told Women’s Health magazine. “That pretty much sums it up. I’m a homemaker, a potty trainer, and a part-time pretender.”

Oh, and she’s quite the go-getter. Monaghan and her husband met 12 years ago through mutual friends at a New York City bar. The day after they met, Monaghan mustered the courage to ask White out. They’ve been married since 2005.
