Lindsay Lohan continues to discover more about motherhood with each passing day.

PEOPLE caught up with the actress, 38, at the Kering Founding Caring for Women dinner in New York City on Monday, Sept. 9, where she opened up about her son Luai Shammas, whom she shares with husband Bader Shammas.

Lohan has not disclosed Luai’s exact birthday, but her publicist confirmed to PEOPLE that he was born in 2023. The actress threw a lavish car-themed 1st birthday party for him on July 17, 2024.

As Luai enters his second year, PEOPLE asked Lohan what life milestones she was looking forward to.

“I think every day is a milestone,” the new mom excitedly replied. “Every day I’m blown away and I’m excited.”

As previously reported, Luai was born and is being raised in Dubai. Luai is an Arabic name meaning “shield or protector.”

“I guess you would say it happened organically,” Lohan told Allure of how she ended up in the United Arab Emirates. “Dubai gives me that space to have my own vision of what I need to do next.”

Lohan’s list of upcoming projects includes reprising her role as Anna Coleman in the sequel to her 2003 film Freaky Friday, appropriately titled Freakier Friday. She and costar Jamie Lee Curtis have been documenting filming the sequel, which is set for a 2025 release, on social media.

At August’s D23 event, Lohan told PEOPLE she’d want to switch places with her son if she could. “Just to see — because he is, so pure and just so happy, just to see life through his eyes, every day. He’s just this beautiful bundle of joy. I can’t think of anything else,” she explained.

Lohan can also be seen in a holiday movie for Netflix titled Our Little Secret. The film is set to debut on the streamer on November 27, 2024.

Steph Curry did something Saturday night he’s only done one time in his life — scored 60 points during a game, and Lindsay Lohan was the beneficiary of his achievement.

Steph’s Warriors lost to the Hawks in OT — 134-141, but Steph made a little history — he’s only the 10th player in NBA history to score 60 points at least twice.

As for Lindsay, she and her hubby were right there courtside in ATL watching the game. Afterward, Steph signed his jersey and gave it to Lindsay … the inscription reads, “Your Godparents love you! To Luai. Warriors” LiLo’s one-year-old kid’s name is Luai.

In case you didn’t know, Steph and Ayesha are indeed the godparents to Luai. As for the connection, Lindsay and Ayesha starred together in “Irish Wish,” which will be released March 15 on Netflix.

Sorry about the loss Steph, congrats and the 60 points, and way to score Luai.

Lindsay Lohan is thriving in her cool mom era.

The OG Cady Heron appeared at the Mean Girls premiere in New York City on Monday, where the 37-year-old was asked if she identifies as a “cool mom” after welcoming son Luai over the summer.

“I hope so,” Lohan tells PEOPLE exclusively with a laugh.

In June, Lohan gave some insight into what her plans for her baby are in a rare interview.

“I guess you would say it happened organically,” Lohan told Allure of how she ended up in the United Arab Emirates. “Dubai gives me that space to have my own vision of what I need to do next.”

Lohan says even though it’s a bustling city, her life is more peaceful there because she doesn’t have to deal with the same public attention and pressure she did in America. In Dubai, she can provide a more steady schedule and peace for her son.

“Sometimes I call it The Truman Show, because it’s the same thing every day,” she said. “But I love it. I really love structure, because I didn’t think I had that when I was young.”

Last year, Dina Lohan opened up to PEOPLE about being thrilled to watch her daughter settle into her new role as a mom.

“To watch my oldest daughter with her beautiful son is a memory engraved in my heart forever,” Dina told PEOPLE. “Lindsay took to her best role ever so naturally…she was always meant to be a mother.”

“God has truly blessed us all with lil Luai,” Dina adds of Lindsay’s baby boy. “As I held Luai, tears of happiness rolled down my cheeks. Badar [Shammas] took to the role of daddy like a pro as well. They are a perfect team.”

The new Mean Girls film opens in theaters on Jan. 12.

PHOTOS OF THE EVENT WILL BE POSTED SOMETIME TOMORROW AFTER EVERYTHING IS HOPEFULLY RELEASED.

Lindsay Lohan is officially a cool mom.

The Mean Girls star has given birth to her first baby with husband Bader Shammas, her rep tells E! News. The pair welcomed a baby boy named Luai in Dubai, where they live.

The rep added, “The family is over the moon in love.”

Lindsay—who married the financier last year—announced in March that she was expecting, posting a photo of a fetch baby onesie and writing, “We are blessed and excited!” The 36-year-old added in a statement to TMZ, “We are looking forward to this next chapter of our lives!”

And her family was certainly ready for the new addition as well, with her mom Dina Lohan reflecting on the little one’s perfect timing.

“She’s been trying and then it happened, that little stick came up positive,” Dina told People in a March interview. “It’s the right time for her and Bader is an angel. Her husband is so sweet and they’re just so happy. They’re just really happy and ready.”

Lindsay and Bader later celebrated the pregnancy by traveling to New York for a baby shower on April 16 that was attended by friends and family, including Lindsay’s mom Dina and sister Aliana Lohan. The Parent Trap star shared a photo of herself in a bright orange outfit at the party, captioning the sweet moment, “Take the time to smile.”

Fans were smiling a week later when she debuted her baby bump on her Instagram Story, dropping a glowing pic of herself in a green and white knit dress at the Edition hotel in New York.

Lindsay’s happily ever after began in November 2021, when the couple got engaged after three years of dating. At the time, she shared a photo of her stunning ring and wrote, “My love. My life. My family. My future.”

Just eight months later, Lindsay revealed she and Bader had gotten married.

“You found me and knew that I wanted to find happiness and grace, all at the same time,” the Freaky Friday actress gushed in a July 2022 Instagram post, which came as she was preparing for her Hollywood return in the Netflix movie Falling for Christmas. “I am stunned that you are my husband. My life and my everything, every woman should feel like this everyday.”

Lindsay Lohan is ringing in another year around the sun!

The actress, who is pregnant and currently expecting her first baby with husband Bader Shammas, celebrated her 37th birthday on Sunday with a selfie shared on Instagram.

Donning a white T-shirt, Lindsay wore her hair down and showed off her natural beauty in the photo, as she made a kissy face at the camera while leaning her head to the side.

“Thank you so much for all of the wonderful Birthday Wishes! 🙏🎂🥰☺️💖💕feeling blessed! ✨✨✨,” she captioned the post.

Lindsay shared the same selfie on her Instagram Story, writing, “Thank you for all of the beautiful Birthday Wishes 🙏🙏🙏💖💖💖💖.”

Lindsay’s younger brother Dakota Lohan also paid tribute to his sister on her birthday with a photo of them twinning in all-black at Saint Laurent’s show for Paris Fashion Week in 2018.

“Love you beyond words. Happy birthday and I’ll see you in 2 weeks @lindsaylohan ❤️❤️❤️,” he wrote below the photo on his Instagram Story.

Dakota, 27, also commented on his sibling’s Instagram post, writing, “Maaaa best friend. Love you ❤️❤️❤️.”

Several others wished the Parent Trap star a happy birthday in the comments section of her post, including her former costars.

Daniel Franzese — who starred in Mean Girls with Lindsay — wrote, “Happy Birthday Pretty mama! ❤️.”

Chord Overstreet commented on the post, “Happy bday Linz!!! Sending lots of love y’all’s way!! ❤️.” The Glee alum played Lindsay’s romantic interest in Netflix’s 2022 holiday movie Falling for Christmas.

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards, meanwhile, also wrote in the comments, “Happy birthday!!! 🎂🎁 💝.”

This year, the actress has much to celebrate, as she is currently expecting her first baby with her husband.

A source close to Lindsay told PEOPLE she is “very excited for this next chapter in her life” as she gets closer to welcoming her first child.

“Motherhood has always been something that was in the cards for her, but it was a matter of when the time was right and she was ready,” added the insider.

The star’s mother, Dina Lohan, also shared her excitement for what’s ahead, telling PEOPLE, “I’m so proud of Lindsay.”

“She is super excited to be a mom and we speak several times a day about every little beautiful thing she feels as the baby grows — sending me daily pictures and monthly/weekly check-ups,” she continued.

“Her siblings and I are so excited to share this miracle together,” added Dina, 60. “Bader and his family are so wonderful and we are blessed to all have such admiration for this blessing of joy to soon arrive.”

Lindsay Lohan’s first little bundle of joy is almost here, and the actress will in fact be havin’ a boy … TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us Lindsay and her husband, Bader Shammas, are expecting the little dude, and pretty soon — we’re told she’s very close to giving birth.

As we first reported, Lindsay’s mother, Dina, will actually be by her side in Dubai for the birth … and some of Lindsay’s siblings will also be overseas around the same time as the birth to meet their new nephew.

Remember, the “Freaky Friday” star made the expecting announcement back in March … with a swarm of support from fans and friends online. Lindsay and Bader spent some time with her family in April — marking the first time she had been with her mom and other members of her fam all together in at least 7 years.

As for the happy couple, they got married last year after sparking a romance just before the pandemic … and now the 2 have something very exciting to look forward to very soon.

We’ve reached out to Lindsay’s family, but there was no comment.
