Joey McIntyre's got the dad stuff again.

The New Kids on the Block crooner—who, despite his 36 years, will always remain the baby-faced member of the erstwhile '80s teen supergroup—has confirmed he and his wife, Barrett, are expecting their second child in December, a friend tells E! News.

No doubt he'll be loving them forever.

"I still can't get over it," McIntyre tells People. "We feel so blessed."

The happy couple, who are the proud parents of 20-month-old son Griffin, are takin' it step by step after learning unexpectedly they were going to be adding another boy to their brood.

"We were shocked," the singer said, adding that he and the missus had a girl's name all ready to go. "It's going to be a trip to have a couple of boys around."

McIntyre, who's the youngest of nine, is currently on the road in the middle of the New Kids on the Block's successful reunion tour, which stops in Englewood, Colo., tonight and Dallas on Friday.
