Hank Azaria and his girlfriend Katie Wright are expecting a baby boy this summer, his rep confirms to PEOPLE exclusively. “They’re quite ecstatic,” the actor’s rep Stan Rosenfield tells PEOPLE.

Katie, who has begun her second trimester, is a former actress now studying to be a family therapist.

Hank, 44, and Katie have been dating for two years. They are currently hunting for the perfect home for their growing family. The actor’s next movie, Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, will be released in May.

This is the first child for both.

He’s so creative, I’m guessing it’ll be a wild name for these two. That, or the other extreme with something like John.

I only know Hank for his work voicing Moe in the Simpsons,which is a job too cool for words.Much luck to him and his girlfriend with their bundle of joy.
