The “American Idol” family is growing!

Season 8 winner Kris Allen and his wife Katy O’Connell have welcomed their first child, a baby boy.

The newborn is named Oliver Neil Allen, and weighed in at 7 pounds and 7 ounces.

Allen revealed O’Connell’s pregnancy in January after the two were in a scary car accident.

O’Connell and their baby thankfully emerged unharmed, but the singer suffered a broken wrist.

Now on the mend, Allen gets to tackle something even scarier: parenthood!

The couple’s joyous news was first reported by Us Weekly.
