We’re blessed that we were able to extend our family,” Amar’e told People.Com exclusively. He then added, “We’re both huge on having a nice size family. It was something we’ve been talking about for a while. It happened naturally and at the right time so it all worked out.” “It was just perfect timing,” adds Alexis, who says she’s had some morning sickness but overall, “can’t complain!”

Amar’e and Alexis who already have three kids together — Ar’e, 7,Amar’e Jr., 6, and Assata, 4 say everyone is excited.

He surprised her with a dinner after they spent the day taking a private historical tour of Paris that included stops at the Louvre and other landmarks.”

“Stoudemire designed the 8.5-carat radiant-cut ring, worth more than $1 million, with Los Angeles-based celebrity jeweler Shayan Afshar. The setting has 3.50 carats of flawless diamonds set in 18-carat white gold. The couple met in 2002 after Stoudemire was drafted with the Phoenix Suns.  They plan to wed in 2013.”
