Melissa Ordway’s home is getting a young – and probably restless – new addition.

The soap star is pregnant with her and husband Justin Gaston‘s second child, her rep confirms to PEOPLE exclusively.

“Justin and I are thrilled about the arrival of Baby Gaston number two,” Ordway, 34, tells PEOPLE. “Our daughter Olivia is the joy and light of our lives and we cannot wait to see her become a big sister.”

Adds the actress – who is due in January – “We feel so blessed!”
