"This November will mark 10 years since we lost my brother, Paul, and I just felt now was the appropriate time," Cody tells the publication, adding that the name Paul has been running in their family for four generations and he wanted to keep it going.

Cody and his wife Felicia are also parents to 5-year-old daughter Remi and 2-year-old-son Colt.

Felicia recently shared a [sweet photo](https://www.instagram.com/p/Cr2CxU0Lgav/?ref=celebritykind.ghost.io) of their newest addition to the family on Instagram, with big brother Colt holding him.
