ABC/Image Group LACongratulations are in order for Frankie Ballard and his wife, Christina who welcomed their daughter Pepper Lynn on February 8.

The couple shared the exciting news in a heartfelt Instagram post on Thursday alongside an adorable photo of a tiny leather jacket embellished with a pink rose, pink floral scarf and uber-cute stuffed animal.

"God gave us a DAUGHTER," she wrote. "@frankieballard I’ll never forget this unbelievable day with you and how my heart grew a schimillion times watching you hold our baby girl."

"Thank you Jesus for my sweet family of 3. My cup is running over and full to the brim. Pepper Lynn you’re a precious angel and beautiful gift from Heaven and I love being your Mommy Cue all the tears," she added.

The first-time parents, who married in March 2017, revealed they were expecting in November. At the time, the "Sunshine & Whiskey" singer had a hard time finding the words to describe how he was feeling about finding out that he would become a father but eventually he spit out, "Shock-tacular, grateful, awe."

"This is our first baby in here," Ballard told People while on the red carpet at the 2019 CMA Awards. "We’ve been excited to become parents for a long time... to have our growing little family is a dream come true."
