Congratulations are in order for Ice-T and his wife, Coco. The couple welcomed a beautiful baby girl on Saturday morning (Nov. 28).

Coco, whose real name Nicole Austin, gave birth to their first child together, named Chanel Nicole, who weighed in at 5.7 pounds. The 36-year-old model posted a photo of her bundle of joy on her Instagram page.

"Surprise!!! Look who came early!! Welcome the new arrival of Chanel Nicole," she writes in the caption. A beautiful healthy 5.7 pound and 18 inch baby girl. Ice and I are so proud! I cried while she was coming out I was so excited to meet her!"

Doting father Ice-T also shared the baby news to his followers on his Twitter account as well. "Ladies and Gentlemen! Please allow me to introduce to the World.... Baby Chanel 5.7 pounds. Love is Love," he tweeted.

It sure is.

Ice-T and Coco have been happily married for 13 years (they wedded in January 2002) and this is their first child together.

Ice-T joins fellow rappers Macklemore, Chance the Rapper and Fabolous (for a second time) who welcome babies into the world in 2015.

Congratulations to Ice-T and Coco on their beautiful baby girl.
