Mariska Hargitay Welcomes Son Andrew Nicolas

Mariska Hargitay and husband, Peter Hermann welcomed a baby boy to their quickly growing family. In August of 2004, Hargitay and Hermann tied the knot in Santa Barbara, California. The two have showed their endless love for one another by raising a beautiful family which developed rather fast. On June 28th, 2006, Hargitay gave birth to son August Miklos Friedrich Hermann. Along with this pregnancy came many complications. Her sudden weight gain and eating habits had caused her to develop gestational diabetes. But, her longing for a bigger family continued until April of 2011 when she and husband Peter adopted a baby girl, Amaya Josephine.

The adoption of baby Amaya got Hargitay thinking about starting the process all over for baby number three. According to PEOPLE, Hargitay’s longing for another child came faster than she had anticipated, “We never in a million years thought it would happen this quickly,” she said, “but something inside of us knew that this was right, and we said, ‘Yes, yes, yes!’” This October, the couple welcomed a baby boy to the family, son Andrew Nicolas Hargitay Hermann.
