He said that researching the meaning behind the name is what sealed the deal for the new dads. "We also looked up the meaning it means 'overseer' and that solidified it," he wrote.

When another fan asked how it is being a dad, Underwood said, "It's the craziest/best feeling ever."

"I'm so full of joy and happiness. My proudest role ever," he continued, before sharing a sweet snap of himself sleeping with his newborn in his arms.

"Our world is a million times better with you in it. Bishop Colton Brown-Underwood 💙 September 26th, 2024," Underwood wrote in his caption, alongside several photos of the couple's newborn baby boy.

One photo showed Underwood and Brown holding baby Bishop in a carrier as they posed together as a family of three for the first time. Other black-and-white snaps show Bishop sleeping soundly and clinging to his dad's finger.

In May, Underwood announced he was expecting his first baby via surrogate with his husband in an interview with Men's Health. Underwood told PEOPLE that he and Brown, who celebrated their first wedding anniversary on May 13, couldn't wait to be fathers.

“That was one of the things we bonded over early in our relationship. We both wanted to be dads,” said Underwood. “But it's been such an incredible experience for us to go through this together, and I cannot wait to watch Jordan become a dad.”
