Oct. 24 (UPI) — “Mom” actress Jaime Pressly recently became a mother to twins.

The 40-year-old actress introduced sons Leo and Lenon in an Instagram post Monday after welcoming the pair with boyfriend Hamzi Hijazi on Oct. 16.

“They’re here! Introducing our new additions, Leo and Lenon, born October 16th. #DoubleTrouble,” she captioned a photo of her baby boys.

Pressly is also parent to 10-year-old son Dezi James with ex-fiancé Eric Cubiche. She announced she was expecting again in June, telling People she and Hijazi were surprised but thrilled to be having twins.

“Twins don’t run on either side of our families so we were completely shocked,” the star told the magazine. “This wasn’t IVF or anything like that. It was just a shock, and I’m like, ‘Doctor, that’s impossible!'”

“I’ve always wanted three kids and the older I’m getting, I’m like, ‘Okay, maybe just one more would be nice,'” she said. “I was getting a little sad, but it was like, ‘We’ll give you two in one.'”

Pressly shared a photo in September of the twins’ nursery. She decorated the boys’ room with an enormous stuffed giraffe and art featuring other animals, including an elephant, zebra, monkey and lion cub.

“Nursery Bliss! Getting ready with our new @potterybarnkids nursery! Love the classic style my boys can grow with!” the star captioned the picture.

Pressly is known for playing Joy Turner on “My Name is Earl,” and has since appeared on “Raising Hope” and “Two and a Half Men.” She portrays Jill Kendall on “Mom,” which will return for a fifth season Nov. 2 on CBS.
