Sailor gets the biggest shock when he finally hugs his wife and kids

Following six-months of deployment, Chris Daugherty was finally coming home to his wife and kids. 

The father-of-three had been counting down the days to their reunion, and that moment he stepped off the plane meant the world to him. 

His 10-year-old son, and daughters, four-years-old and 18-months, were overjoyed seeing their dad arrive, running for hugs and kisses. 

His son was the first to greet him, poster in hand, while his little girls closely followed, dressed in little sailor outfits to greet Dad. 

But it was when Chris saw his wife Natasha that his face dropped. 

Displaying a huge poster saying 'Welcome Home Baby Daddy', Natasha was all smiles to see her guy standing before her. 

And the moment he takes that poster from her to give his wife a much needed hug, Chris' jaw hits the floor. 

Immediately Chris came to a standstill before asking: "Is that real?"

But when he realises it's very real, he gives his wife a kiss and hug, over the moon with the news that their family-of-five was about to become six. 

And better yet, when they arrived home to their friends and a family, a gender reveal was imminent – the Daugherty's are adding another little girl to their brood. 

We have no idea how Mum was able to keep this a secret for so long – but this is absolutely adorable, so much happiness in one place.
