There is only one thing on sin ger Ameriie’s mind these days–her newborn baby boy!

On Instagram, the singer shared that she and her husband, Lenny Nicholson, have welcomed their first child together, River Rowe Charles L. Nicholson. 

“1 magical month later… | River Rowe Charles L. Nicholson God blessed us with our baby boy May 15th, 2018,” she wrote to caption a photo of her newborn. “River, we love you and we’re so honored to be your parents, to be your foundation and your rock in this thing called life. God bless you, our beautiful son. #RiverRowe #MommysLilCupcake.”

On her birthday in January, the “Why Don’t We Fall In Love” singer announced that she was pregnant.

😌❤️🎈 #BestBirthdayPresentEver #21weeks #blessed 🙏🏽

The 38-year-old and Nicholson tied the knot in June 2011. Shortly after saying, “I do” the star opened up to ESSENCE about newlywed life and couldn’t help but gush about the love of her life. 

“He’s just a gentleman,” she said. “He does the big things like surprises and we’ll go here and we’ll go there, but it’s the little things too. The little things defy everything to me. That’s the stuff that’s going to happen most often. It could be as simple as him opening my car door or when we’re at a restaurant he always pulls the chair out for me and he stands up when I have to leave the table and when I come back. He’s just so romantic! I love the way he treats my family.”

Now that their family has grown by one, we know these two are simply over the moon. Congrats!
