It’s baby picture time! Last week, James Middleton (aka Kate Middleton’s younger brother) was photographed pushing his newborn baby in a stroller while accompanied by his wife, Alizee Thevenet, 33. And now, the proud dad is finally sharing first-glimpse photos of his newborn on social media. 

This weekend, the 36-year-old entrepreneur shared newly snapped photos of his first child on Instagram. The first pic in the slideshow shows the new dad holding the hand of his baby, who appears to be wrapped up in a sky-blue blanket. Also in his hand sits a gold piece of jewelry that has an engraved photo of their dog Ella, who passed away earlier this year.

Meanwhile, the last snap shows James carrying his child (whose face isn’t visible on camera) in a baby carrier while surrounded by the family pups.

In the caption, James revealed that he and his wife welcomed—drumroll, please—a baby boy. And not only that, he shared the baby’s name: Inigo. According to Name Berry, the name comes from Spanish and Basque origin and translates to “fiery.”

“He has been in our lives for just a few weeks but they have been the most special of my life getting to know our beautiful baby boy,” James wrote. “No matter how prepared I thought I was…I was not prepared for the overwhelming emotion of meeting Inigo for the first time and the love for my darling Alizée as we became three.”

He continued, “We have settled into our new life as parents and I’ve told him all about Ella and that if it wasn’t for her he wouldn’t be here today and that we miss her greatly. The dogs have been fantastic at welcoming their little brother into the pack (although Inka needs to know the teddy bears are not all for her…).”

Nice to meet you, Inigo.
