AceShowbiz - Congratulations are in order for Joe Budden and girlfriend Cyn Santana for welcoming their new bundle of joy. The 37-year-old rapper/broadcaster and the former "Love & Hip Hop: New York" star announced via social media that they welcomed their first child, a bouncy baby boy, together on Friday morning, December 15.
Budden was the first to break the news, taking to his Instagram account to share a photo of him holding the little boy. In the snap which he simply captioned with "2017.," the hip-hop star dressed warmly in a black-and-gray outfit complete with matching scarf and a beanie, while his son was wrapped in white blanket.
About an hour later, Santana took to her own account to share a cute black-and-white photo of her baby's tiny hand wrapped around her index finger along with a caption that read, "Happy birthday baby boy. We love you SO much!"
This is the couple's first child together, as Budden already has a 14-year-old son, Trey, from a previous relationship. The new parents were definitely in bliss following the arrival of their baby, with Santana tweeting, "Thank you guys so so so so much for all the positive vibrations. I really appreciate it. I am so overwhelmed!"
Thank you guys so so so so much for all the positive vibrations. I really appreciate it. I am so overwhelmed!

Budden's second child was born coincidentally with the tenth anniversary of his iconic music album "Mood Muzik 3", making the joyous day even more special. As one fan pointed this out on the micro-blogging site, "HOLD UP. Did you just have your 2nd son on the 10th year anniversary of MM3...?" Budden, playing it cool, responded to the fan's tweet, "It appears so…… God is good."
