The Baldwin bunch is big and bonded.
Alec Baldwin and his wife Hilaria Baldwin share seven children together, welcoming their youngest, daughter Ilaria Catalina Irena, on Sept. 22, 2022 after announcing that they were expecting in March.
"Our new baby is a very bright spot in our lives. A blessing and a gift during such uncertain times," wrote Hilaria on Instagram ahead of the baby's arrival. The lengthy caption was paired with a video that featured Alec and Hilaria playing with their kids after she told them a baby is on the way.
The uncertain times Hilaria was referring to were related to the accidental shooting death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of Baldwin's film Rust; he was holding the gun at the time and in January 2023 was charged with involuntary manslaughter.
"It's been an emotional time for my family and I do so want to express to you how grateful I am for your support and your kindness and your reason," she said to fans on an episode of her Witches Anonymous podcast, adding that she was having a hard time with wanting to keep things upbeat for her kids all the time despite the stress: "Kids are sponges and certain conversations are not always age-appropriate; we cannot deny that they don't feel the energy and pick up on certain things in the family."
The Baldwins remain focused on their kids throughout it all; Hilaria recently donned a sweatshirt with all seven names of "my special little people," and Alec posted a photo of Hilaria and Leo days after the charges were announced.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2012, shares three daughters, Carmen Gabriela, María Lucía Victoria, and newborn Ilaria Catalina Irena, as well as four sons Rafael Thomas, Leonardo Ángel Charles, Romeo Alejandro David and Eduardo "Edu" Pao Lucas. Alec is also dad to daughter Ireland Baldwin, whom he shares with ex-wife Kim Basinger.
The couple often show off photos of their big family, including one group snap from Thanksgiving 2022. Hilaria posted the candid picture, which featured her and Alec sitting on the couch beside their seven children — though only three family members managed to look at the camera.
"Happy gratitude day from our epic fail family photo to what is probably yours ✨. Our love and gratitude to all of you for being wonderful forces of light in our lives ✨💛" the mom of seven captioned the photo.

Shortly after Alec and Hilaria's marriage in 2012, the pair announced their pregnancy in February 2013 and welcomed their first child together seven months later. Hilaria gave birth to Carmen on Aug. 23, 2013.
In 2017, Hilaria posted an adorable photo with a caption describing Carmen's desire for a little sister. "Carmen has been begging for a baby sister. She finally got fed up and shoved a baby doll up her dress, telling me she will have the baby for me. But I'm mommy and she is the big sister," Hilaria wrote.

Hilaria gave birth to her first son and second child, Rafael, on June 17, 2015. The couple announced the news that Carmen would be getting a sibling in January of that year by sharing a photo of the growing family — and Hilaria's baby belly — on the beach.
"It was amazing," Alec said of his "hero" wife at the time. "Someone else is doing all the hard work, and you're there for them … You sit there and go, 'I would do anything to make this easier for you,' " he said.

One year later, Alec and Hilaria welcomed their third child and second son together on Sept. 12, 2016. "It was such a special day bringing him into this world," Hilaria captioned a photo of herself holding her newborn shortly after his birth.
Although his name is Leonardo — and he is often referred to as Leo — his dad immediately nicknamed him "Leoncito," per Alec's Instagram caption.

Romeo joined siblings Carmen, Rafael and Leo on May 17, 2018. He is Hilaria and Alec's third son and fourth child together. Before the couple decided on Romeo, they had been calling him another name almost up until the day he was born.
"He didn't have a name for two days," Hilaria told PEOPLE at the time. "His name that we were pretty set on the entire time was Diego, which I still really love. I told my kids, 'Diego is gonna come,' and they were all waiting for him."
"I don't know why I just started getting this sense really close to when I was gonna give birth that that was not his name," she added.
Eduardo 'Edu' Pao Lucas

Hilaria and Alec welcomed their fourth son and fifth child, Eduardo, together on Sept. 8, 2020. The couple each posted on their Instagrams the following day to announce the news of their new addition, whom they nicknamed "Edu."
The mom of six called Edu their "rainbow baby" and "such a blessing" — he was born after she suffered two miscarriages seven months apart in 2019. Hilaria frequently posts sweet photos of Edu beside his younger sister.

Carmen's wish for a little sister came true six months after Hilaria birthed Edu. The couple welcomed their sixth child via surrogate on Feb. 25, 2021. Named María Lucía Victoria — and going by Lucía — she made her Instagram debut in a closeup shared by Hilaria, alongside a heartfelt caption.
"We are so in love with our daughter, Lucia," she wrote. "Just like your brothers and sisters, you are a dream come true."

Hilaria and Alec confirmed to PEOPLE that they were expecting their seventh child in March 2022. "We have 'somos un buen equipo' engraved on our wedding bands. We say that to each other all the time at home — that we're a good team," Hilaria and Alec tell PEOPLE in an exclusive statement. "One of the most beautiful things my children have experienced with a big family is how the heart can grow with every new sibling." Hilaria's pregnancy news came after she suffered a miscarriage and a pregnancy loss in 2019.
The couple welcomed their seventh child on Sept. 22, 2022, a baby girl named Ilaria Catalina Irena Baldwin, who weighed 6 lbs., 13 oz.
"How grateful we feel to welcome our newest little daughter into this world," the couple told PEOPLE in an exclusive statement. "Just as magical and filled with love as every other little person we have been blessed with."
On Oct. 4, Hilaria shared their first family photo on Instagram since welcoming their newest addition last month.
"Our first photo with the smallest Baldwins! What a Baldwinito dream team," she wrote, mentioning Alec's oldest daughter, on Instagram. "Ireland, you are missed and loved ✨."

Alec's eldest child, Ireland, was born in 1995 to Alec and his then-wife, actor Kim Basinger. The two divorced in 2002 and Ireland found herself publicly in the center of a very acrimonious split when Alec's leaked voicemails were made public.
In the years since, Ireland has become a model and influencer, repaired her relationship with her father and is expecting a child of her own. She now has a close relationship with her father and stepmother, who excitedly shared the news of a new niece on the way with Ireland's seven half-brothers and sisters.
