Matthew Morrison and his wife, Renee, have welcomed their first child, a boy named Revel.

The Glee alum, 38, announced the happy news on Instagram on Sunday, October 22, sharing a sweet black-and-white photo that showed him giving his son a fist bump.

“To my Newborn Child, Revel James Makai Morrison: Your Mama and Papa got this!!” he captioned the pic. “Trust in us to guide and protect you always. To lay the tracks so your choo choo train will run smoothly throughout this world. You will have all the tools to soar! We love you, and are so thankful for your arrival! The adventures are just beginning…”

The new mom also shared an adorable photo of her husband cradling the newborn — who has a shock of dark hair — on his forearm and hand.

I’m in Revel Heaven… my heaven on earth… to give you life, to hold you in my arms, to comfort you, to feed you from my body.. I can’t begin to express my immeasurable gratitude for being the one you chose as your Mama! My Revel James Makai Morrison, I promise to cherish you, to constantly remind you that you are worthy of love and belonging, to teach you compassion and kindness.

…Mistakes are not insurmountable failures, but valuable opportunities to learn… we graduated!!… @_matthew.morrison_ and I are so stoked to announce we just finished our 10 week baby class!! Woohoo!!! It was such a great experience and we highly highly recommend taking some kind of course for so many reasons. You are surrounded by others who are in the same baby boat, you are introduced to so many things that you wouldn't think of on your own, birthing and comfort techniques are taught, and so much more… I'm on such a high right now.. I feel as prepared as can possibly be and Matthew and I feel even closer. Our bond throughout this time is immeasurable. It's just amazing to do this together. And for those of you who may not have your partner with you, designate the task to someone else. You don't have to go through this alone.. #morrisonadventures #lilmo #graduation website to our fantastic instructor: Kathy Killebrew – imagineyourbirth.com

Morrison and his model wife, who wed in Maui in October 2014, announced in May that they were expecting their first child.

“Matt’s friends absolutely adore Renee!” an insider previously told Us. “They have never seen Matt happier than when he is with her. She is super supportive of his career and also works hard on her own. She is such a great girl and they are awesome together.”
