Marie Kondo is sparking more joy in her home!

The home organization guru and author, 36, announced her pregnancy on Instagram Wednesday, sharing a photo of herself showing off her growing baby bump.

"I have some news!" she captioned the shot on her Instagram. "Another bundle of joy on the way. 💖"

This will be the third child for Kondo and husband Takumi Kawahara. The pair are already proud parents to daughters Satsuki and Miko.

Last year, Kondo — whose bestselling book The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up was turned into a Netflix series in 2019 — opened up to PEOPLE about how her outlook on life has changed since having kids.

"I used to be a perfectionist," she said, "but it became difficult to maintain that standard after having my children. So much was out of my control."

"I hope my openness on the subject will help others to ease up on impossible standards," Kondo continued. "I gave up on perfectionism a while ago!"

Kondo also believes chaos is part of parenthood and "it's quite natural for kids to have tantrums — when they do, they do!"

When her kids act up, Kondo told PEOPLE, "I take the time to listen. Once they've calmed down, I ask them what's bothering them and then, to let them know I understand, I say, 'So that made you sad,' or 'That's what you didn't like.' I try to honor their feelings."

As for tidying up, Kondo said her daughters won't clean up on their own, "but they will when I ask them to!"

"We make it a daily practice and tidy together at the end of the day," she said.
