President Donald Trump gave the world its first glimpse of the newest member of the Vance family.

“Congratulations! A perfect Baby boy for the wonderful Vance family,” Trump posted on Truth Social Monday. A photo of the Baby — named Alec Neel Vance — with two older siblings was included in the post.

Vice President JD Vance and second lady Usha Vance welcomed their fourth child Sunday.

“Usha and the Baby are happy and healthy, and our kids are overjoyed to meet their little brother,” Vance posted on X. “The incredible military doctors and staff members of Walter Reed Medical Center and the White House Medical Unit have been a blessing. We are deeply thankful for all they have done for our family.”

Alec’s older andblings are Ewan (9), Vivek (6), and Mirabel (4).

It has been awhile since a Baby was born to a sitting vice president.

The last one was son was born in 1870 to Vice President Schuyler Colfax during President Ulysses S. Grant’s administration.

The Vances have said the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was close to the vice president, influenced their decision to have another child.

After Kirk’s death, Erika Kirk told Usha that she had regretted not having more children.

“I think it really heightened JD’s sense that he’d been talking about this for a while, this sense that there was this possibility of having another kid whom he could love as much as the three that we had,” Usha said. “It really did crystallize for [him], that sense that if you could have that other child, then you would have nothing to regret. And if we couldn’t have that other child, then we were very happy with the children that we had. So it was very powerful what she said about her own family and certainly very moving to both of us.”
