As previously reported, Chicago was born via surrogate at 12:47 a.m. PT on Monday, January 15, weighing in at 7 pounds, 6 ounces. She now joins the couple’s daughter North, 4, and son Saint, 2.
“Kanye and I are happy to announce the arrival of our healthy, beautiful baby girl,” the mom of three, 37, wrote on her app on Tuesday, January 16. “We are incredibly grateful to our surrogate who made our dreams come true with the greatest gift one could give and to our wonderful doctors and nurses for their special care. North and Saint are especially thrilled to welcome their baby sister.”

chicago west sounds like a nbc show that’s a ripoff of law & order svu that debuted in the fall of 2007 that came on from 9:30 pm est. that only lasted one season because of bad ratings that returned in 2009 only to be cancelled again the following year

It would be funny if Chicago West and North West both grow up to have terrible senses of direction

And to everyone who thinks it’s literally pronounced as CHI. No. It’s “Shy”
