In a sweet video on her Facebook page, Ivanka announced herthird pregnancy with the help of her and Jared Kushner's two children. Daughter Arabella, 4, shouted "Baby 1," and son Joseph, 1, shouted"Baby 2" (with some assistance from mom) before the expectant mom made the"baby 3" announcement.

In an official message on her website, Ivanka, 33, said shewas thrilled and added that "Arabella and Joseph are bothincredibly excited to have a new sibling on the way (of course, Arabelladesperately wants a baby girl, and Joseph hopes it's a boy!), and I wanted themto join me in making the announcement."

She admitted that it took a little wrangling to get her sonto cooperate for the video announcement. "Arabella is a ham and was totallycamera-ready, but I had to resort to bribery to get Joseph to cooperate,"Ivanka wrote. "I usually try to feed my kids healthy food, but I gaveJoseph his first lollipop ever in exchange for his best behavior. It’s themommy trick we all say we’ll never do, but when you have multiple children,it’s pretty hard to be above it — it just works too well!!"

"Jared and I areso thankful, and so excited!"Ivanka, whose father Donald Trump iscurrently the Republican frontrunner in the run-up to the 2016 U.S. presidentialelection, is expecting her baby in the spring.
