Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake have welcomed a son, whom they named Silas Randall Timberlake, their reps confirmed to People.
According to the reps, mom and baby are doing well and dad is “ecstatic.” However, no further details are known at this time.
This is the first child for the 33-year-old actress and her husband.
Although the former 7th Heaven star appeared to be sporting an obvious bump around October (and despite Joey Fatone's big mouth), she and JT didn't confirm a baby was on the way until late January.
Timberlake did the honors on his 34th birthday, posting a picture of him kissing his wife's belly. "Thank you EVERYONE for the Bday wishes! This year, I'm getting the GREATEST GIFT EVER. CAN'T WAIT," he shared on Instagram. "#BoyOrGirl #YouNeverKnow #WeDontEvenKnow #WeAreTakingBets."

Justin and Jessica wed in October 2012 after dating on and off for five years. The "Mirrors" singer opened up about his wife and "best friend" on The Ellen DeGeneres Show shortly after. "Every once in a while, I can catch a glimpse of her when she doesn't see me looking. I have this moment where I'm like, 'If you never make a good decision — if you only make bad decisions – for the rest of your life, you made one really good decision,'" he gushed, adding that his relationship with Biel "suits me."
But just because the two tied the knot didn't mean they were in a rush to start a family.
"I'm not sure about sooner or later," Jessica told People in 2013. "But definitely at some point... Every woman has some kind of intuition of how they'd interact with a child. I feel comfortable around kids."
Timberlake's former 'N Sync bandmate agreed. "Jessica is awesome, and Justin is a kid at heart," Joey Fatone said when asked about the parents-to-be. "[They'll have] fun."
Let the fun begin.

They named their son Silas. What a moniker. He likely will suffer some insults from other kids in school over his name. ;)
