“How I Met Your Mother” star Neil Patrick Harris and his longtime partner, David Burtka, have happily announced the birth of their twins, a baby boy and a baby girl named Gideon Scott and Harper Grace, via a surrogate mother on Tuesday (October 12).

Neal announced the news via Twitter, “Babies!! On 10/12, Gideon Scott and Harper Grace entered the Burtka-Harris fold. All of us are happy, healthy, tired, and a little pukey.”

David and Neil dated for six years before they decided to take such a bit step to become fathers together. The 37 year-old actor confessed in an interview with Ryan Seacrest that he had already started to prepare for the most important role of his life.

Neil said, “I’m trying to read as much as I can, and prep as much as I can. But there’s only so much you can do because each baby is super individual and totally their own person … [I'm] very, very excited. It’s the big, crazy calm before the ridiculous storm.”

Congratulations to Neil and David!!
