Wes Bergmann is taking on a new challenge.


The two-time Challenge winner announced that he and his wife, Amanda Hornick, are expecting their first baby together.


In a sweet joint Instagram post shared on Wednesday, the pair affectionately revealed that Baby Bergmann will make their arrival in September.


"We would like to take a second to thank all of our friends, family, and supporters who continue to help us become the best versions of ourselves," wrote the couple alongside cute photos of Hornick holding an ultrasound. Their Bernedoodle Penny also made a cameo as the family announced their upcoming addition with a gallery of photos.

The set ended with Bergmann sweetly holding Hornick's baby bump as the two walked down a scenic path together.


"We aim to pour all of that love into this child in an effort to make him/her the next great, ginger, genius," the caption continued.


They sent an encouraging message for others who are hoping to become parents.


"While we are entering into this new stage of life with immense gratitude, we know the season of waiting too and send love & strength to anyone else hoping to one day become parents themselves."


Ending on a cute possibility for their little one, the pair wrote, "Dare we say, future Challenge champion?"


In the comment section, Bergmann and Hornick received love and support from his Challenge family.
