Kelly Clarkson announced that she is pregnant with her second child with husband Brandon Blackstock during a tearful performance in Los Angeles on Wednesday night, and it has us intensely feeling some type of way.
This is exciting, because like her covers of other artists' music, and pretty much every other aspect of life, Clarkson is totally killing it at being a mom so far with 1-year-old daughter River Rose. Here are 19 of Kelly's cutest moments as a mom.
