Congratulations are in order for Jimmy Kimmel and Molly McNearney.

The funnyman, 49, and his writer-producer wife, 38, are expecting their second child together, he announced on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Monday evening.

At the same time, Kimmel revealed that he will host the 89th Academy Awards in February.

“Also, my wife, is hosting a baby inside her body,” he joked. “So that’s what’s coming.”

He went on to joke about the baby’s gender and moniker.

“We got the ultrasound — which is weird because it’s like you’re already spying on the baby — but we asked the technician not to tell us whether we’re having a boy or a girl,” he said. “Our plan is to let the child decide for itself. We want that to be a surprise, but I have been trying to think of names that would work for a boy or girl. So far, I’ve come up with two: No. 1 Dyson after the vacuum or Gelatin with a J. No? That’s exactly what my wife said.”

He added: “So — there’s a lot of exciting stuff going on. Congratulations to me. I’m hosting the Oscars and I had sex. Two things as a teenage boy I never thought would be possible.”

The new addition will join 2-year-old big sister Jane.

Kimmel is also dad to daughter Katie, 25, and son Kevin, 22, with ex-wife Gina Kimmel.

Congratulations to the Kimmel-McNearney family!
