Jamie O'Neal's next album, "Every Little Thing" is due out in September – but she has another project to deal with first – her first baby is expected in June.

Jamie says that although she's thrilled with the news, she was a little shocked at first. "I'm kind of looking forward to it," she says. "My husband and I have had a fabulous few years, so it's probably time to move onto that next chapter, even though we weren't trying for it, but it was a big shock.

"There was the initial shock of everything changing, and then there was the shock that, oh well, I'm not going to be able to tour next summer, and I'm not going to be able to be at Fan Fair. And then there was the worry about losing the band – those kind of business things were on our minds. But then we realized it's the most important thing we're ever going to do and so now we're just excited."

Jamie's firstborn is expected just after her June 3 birthday, on June 11.
