Biggest Loser host Alison Sweeney reports that her 3-year-old son Ben is already being a great big brother to his new sister Megan, born in January.

Alison, who's been enjoying a short break from her hectic Days of our Lives filming schedule, recently blogged about a sweet moment that the kids shared.

"Being with Ben and Megan has been so great. I was making dinner the other night and I heard her cry out from the other room. But as I was grabbing a towel to dry my hands, she stopped crying… I went in to see what happened, and Ben had given her her pacifier, he was saying “its okay, Megan, I’m here. I’m here megan” in this adorable high-pitched voice. It was so cute."

The busy mom-of-two then signs off the post with, "Oops. Megan is awake. Gotta go!"

The Biggest Loser host Alison Sweeney has welcomed her second child, daughter Megan Hope. At 12 minutes to midnight on Monday, Megan arrived, weighing in at 6 lb.- 7 oz.

"Both mommy and baby – and daddy, too – are doing well," says her rep, Carrie Simons.

Alison and husband Dave Sanov also have a 3-year-old son Ben. Alison continued working as host of The Biggest Loser until the very end. "She's still in hair and makeup from her day on the set!" her rep reports. "It was a very easy delivery, and everybody is great."

A new episode of The Biggest Loser airs Tuesday night on NBC.

When a celebrity has a baby shower, you can bet that most if not all the presents are things most moms wouldn't dream of getting. Biggest Loser host Alison Sweeney's shower was no different - except for, at the end, every single present was donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital! "It seemed the perfect opportunity to do something good and have a good time, too," Alison, who is expecting a girl in January, says.

The shower, hosted by the Hot Moms Club and decked out by decorator Jennifer Sbranti, was held November 2 at the Treehouse Social Club in LA., and guests at the party - including husband David Sanov and 3-year-old son Ben - enjoyed Sunflower Baking cookies and Crumbs cupcakes while sipping Bloom Tea and Izze drinks.

Alison also spoke about being excited that she's having a girl, because she loves "decorating her room with all this great girlie stuff," she said. "I'll be honest, I'm very excited about buying a princess dress. And the lip gloss and nail polish — it's going to be so cute!"

As for a name - she plans to keep it simple, "We're very traditional," said Alison. "We're not at all interested in artsy, creative, trendy names."

Alison Sweeney, 31, host of The Biggest Loser, and husband Dave Sanov are expecting their second child, a daughter, in January, and when it comes to baby names, they intend to steer clear of trendy Hollywood names.

Alison told Star Magazine,

"I'm definitely conservative when it comes to baby names. We're looking for pretty but traditional. There are lots of names up in the air, but we're not anywhere near picking one."

Alison also says of her pregnancy cravings,

"Pregnancy cravings for me are when someone says mentions a certain food and I'll have to have it immediately," she admits. "Last weekend I was at the Farmer's Market and a woman next to me ordered four pounds of tomatoes to make homemade gazpacho. I was like: Great, now I have to make gazpacho! So I busted out my BlackBerry, found an online recipe, picked up all the ingredients at the Farmer's Market, went home and, if I may say, made delicious gazpacho. Those are the kinda cravings I've been having."

Alison and Dave are also parents to Benjamin, 3.
