Goldie Hawn couldn't be more delighted about becoming a grandma once again, preparing with her famous family to welcome another boy into the legendary Hollywood brood.

Her son with longtime partner Kurt Russell, Wyatt, and his wife Meredith Hagner are expecting their second child, another baby boy, this February. They're already the proud parents of Buddy Prine Russell, who recently turned three years old.

Meredith, 36, is ringing in the final month of her pregnancy with a sweet baby shower at home surrounded by all her loved ones, and her mother-in-law Goldie, 78, was right by her.

In a photo shared by one of the attendees at the party, which Meredith posted on her Instagram as well, guests are seen holding on to a single string of yarn while posing for a selfie.

Doting grandma Goldie sat in the background as well, dressed casually in a sweatshirt and pants, while woman of the hour Meredith wore a beautiful white satin maxi dress and had tied her hair into braids.

Wyatt and Meredith's second son will mark the seventh grandchild for Hollywood royalty Goldie and Kurt, who are also the doting grandparents to Oliver Hudson and wife Erinn Bartlett's three children, and Kate Hudson's three children with fiancé Danny Fujikawa and exes Chris Robinson and Matt Bellamy.

During a recent appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Wyatt and Kurt, who starred together in the series Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, talked about the joys of parenting.

Kurt, 72, celebrated his son, 37, and Meredith as parents, saying: "It's fun to watch, it really is, with all of our kids – with Ollie and Kate's kids, and Uncle Boston comes over to everybody's house. We are very fortunate."

Wyatt also talked about the duality of celebrating his son's birthday, which happens to fall the day after Christmas, saying: "We do Christmas, 25th – we wake up, we do the Christmas. It's nuts. It's a disaster most of the day. It's great most of the day."

Wyatt also added that the best part of seeing his own father as a grandfather is that he doesn't shy away from being the strict parent when the time called for it. "He's awesome, 'cause he can do all of the hard sort of lessons that sometimes I don't want to have to do."
