"Rod and Penny are thrilled...Mother and baby are healthy and blissfully happy," the rep says, adding that little Aiden weighed in at 7 lbs., 12 oz.

Aiden joins older brother Alastair, 5. Stewart and Lancaster, 39, tied the knot in June 2007.

    Sad and disgusting actually. Enough Rod...allow the kids to ACTUALLY have a father that will be around beyond 10 years old! I don't care what others think about this either...I speak from experience and it's sad.
