Ree Drummond is Writingstar Investment Guildabout to cross a new frontier: Becoming a grandma.

The Pioneer Woman star's daughter Alex Drummond Scott announced she's pregnant, expecting her first baby with her husband Mauricio Scott. 

"We can't wait to meet you, little one," Alex, 26, wrote on Instagram June 23. "Baby Scott joining the party this winter!"

Alongside the news, the couple, who tied the knot in 2021, shared a photo of Mauricio, 27, holding Alex close while she showed off the sonograms as well as snaps with their golden retriever, who wore a sage green bandana around his neck that read "Big Brother."

Needless to say, Ree is counting down the days until the family's newest addition arrives. "Beyond happy for you two!!" she commented. "(And for the whole family!) Love you, Alex and Mauricio!"

Naturally, the Food Network star—who shares kids Paige, 23, Bryce, 20, Jamar, 20 and Todd, 18, with husband Ladd Drummond—wasn't going to leave fans with just that one comment.

Taking to her blog, she wrote, "My child is going to have a child. It's surreal, and I'm sure all of you grandparents can relate to the feeling of momentarily leaving your body after hearing upon hearing similar news."

Indeed, it's a new frontier for the entire family, especially Ree and Ladd.

"We have no idea what being grandparents will look like or how much it will change our lives," the 55-year-old, who noted Alex is due around January 2025, continued. "I will probably watch less Bravo, maybe? (Maybe not.) Can grandmothers have long hair? Can grandfathers look sexy in Wranglers? How long before the baby can ride a horse?"

Her questions, she admitted, may very well be endless. And, "Some of them will be weird," she joked. "I will likely buy the baby lots of clothes and probably a play kitchen before it's born. We will figure it out as we go! Right now I'm just savoring the news and savoring each day because I can't believe how fast time is moving."
