It's a boy for Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillio!

Former 98 Degrees singer Nick Lachey, 38, and television personality Vanessa Minnillo, 31, welcomed their first child together on Wednesday.

Their son Camden John was born at 6:54 p.m. and weighed 8 lbs., 9oz.

The new parents, who married in July of 2011, said in a statement:

"We are incredibly proud to announce the birth of our beautiful baby boy, Camden John Lachey."

They added: "Love has truly been redefined for both of us."

Lachey told Us Weekly earlier this year that he and Minnillo were prepping for the new baby.

He explained: "The nursery's ready, we got the stroller, we got the car seat.

"Now it's just emotionally figuring out what we do, and I don't think that ever ends."

Lachey's ex-wife Jessica Simpson, 32, gave birth to her first child, daughter Maxwell, in May.

The new mom recently showed off her post-baby body on television earlier this week, revealing she lost over 40 lbs.
