Washington, Oct 1 : Rapper Jay-Z has expressed his excitement about his wife Beyonce’s pregnancy and on him becoming a dad.

The 41-year-old hip-hop mogul hosted a charity carnival in NYC for the Sean Carter Foundation with his wife, and told E! News and other reporters how happy he has been lately and could not wait for the baby’s arrival.

“I’m excited! I think that is pretty easy,” Us magazine quoted him as saying.

A source close to the couple revealed that although the couple have not yet publicly revealed the gender of their baby-to-be, the R&B queen has already purchased Christian Louboutin baby booties and asked for a “whole wardrobe of baby-girl clothes”. (ANI)
