From two-time Bachelorette to mom of two!

Emily Maynard welcomed her second child, a son, with husband Tyler Johnson. She announced the birth on Instagram.

"God is good. My heart can't even handle it," she captioned a photo of herself with her newborn.

Maynard won ("won") Season 15 of The Bachelor, when Brad Womack proposed to her. They broke up, and she was chosen as The Bachelorette for Season 8 of the show. On the finale of that show, she got engaged to Jef Holm. They broke up several months later.

Emmy snubs and surprises

After her stint of reality TV stardom, she ended up marrying a guy much closer to home -- she met Johnson in church. They got married just over a year ago in a surprise wedding ceremony. She announced they were expecting in January.

"Who knew me and the hot guy from church would be installing car seats together one day?" she wrote on Instagram a week ago, along with a photo of Johnson prepping for the new baby.

She was known for being the first Bachelorette who was a single mom. She had been engaged to NASCAR driver Ricky Hendrick when he died in a plane crash in 2004. She found out she was pregnant shortly after his death, and named daughter Ricki after him. Now Ricki gets to be a big sister to this little guy:

Congrats to the newlyweds on their new bundle of joy!
