Updated

We all wish we could be like Chip and Joanna Gaines. If their incredible love story isn't enough to convince you of their undying love for each other, a body language expert has confirmed just that.

The "Fixer Upper" stars recently announced that they're expecting baby No. 5 (yes, five!), and it was definitely met with warm wishes and excitement from their loyal fanbase. Following their pregnancy announcement, a body language expert decoded Chip and Jo's PDA in photos, proving that they are still madly in love!

First off, Joanna often faces and leans into Chip in photos. Expert and author Patti Wood revealed that by leaning into her husband, Joanna is giving him some of her weight -- both literally and figuratively.

"This symbolizes the unity of their relationship. She leans on him when she needs it and vice versa," Wood revealed.

Wood also revealed that their adorable PDA, specifically cheek kisses from Chip, is "more intimate and is typically a prelude to deeper affection."

And if you haven't noticed, instead of traditional hand holding, Chip and Jo often link arms.

"It's clear that this is a desire to be connected and viewed as a unit," Wood said. "While this can be a type of ownership, there's also a sweetness to this gesture."

This super sweet gesture also brings the couple closer together, according to another body language expert Blanca Cobb.

"Linking or holding arms brings you physically closer together" Cobb revealed. "When you're feeling loving towards your partner, you'll find ways to get closer."

The reason Chip and Jo's successful marriage? They function as one team.

"Their body language overlaps," Wood said. "Instead of two separate silhouettes, they create a united front."

Judging by Chip's hilarious story on how baby No. 5 was conceived, it sounds like the spark is very much alive. Congrats Chip and Jo!
