“It’s so surreal to be a family of four now with the birth of our son, Zander, today but we feel so incredibly blessed for this little man!” Hartsock tells Us. “So far he’s the perfect baby.. sleeping, no crying and super chill. Let’s see how long that lasts. ;)”

The couple, who wed in January 2015 after meeting on the season 9 of The Bachelorette in 2013, are already the parents of son Asher, 2.
