Dancing With the Stars’Peta Murgatroyd and Maksim Chmerkovskiy definitely know how to spin impressively around the stage, but let’s hope they’re just as skilled at maneuvering in a nursery, because the couple has just welcomed their first baby.
Fans have been on high alert since Maksim first posted a hurried video yesterday, which most assumed was the duo on their way to the hospital. Their suspicions were confirmed when the 36-year-old posted a pic showing 30-year-old Peta in a hospital bed prepping for the big moment. Though the caption proved she had something else on her mind with Maksim adding, “But first…a little make up 😝”

This morning, the news finally came with Maksim tweeting, “Shai Aleksander Chmerkovskiy 01/04/17 5:34am.” Yay! And what an adorable name!
Both parents will be taking some time off to spend with their new little bundle of joy, with Maksim telling People, “I come from a dirt broke family. I just started to be able to afford things in 2005 when [DWTS] started. For me to be able to take time off in this way … [to have] what we have to enjoy and be proud of, that’s anybody’s dream.” So sweet!
Welcome to the world, Shai! And congratulations, Maksim and Peta!
