It's a boy!

Kevin Hart and his wife, Eniko Parrish, have welcomed their first child together, a son named Kenzo Kash. The comedian took to Twitter early Tuesday, Nov. 21, 2017, to announce the happy news. "God is truly amazing," he wrote. "Kenzo Kash Hart was born at 1:45am....He is Healthy & already smiling. Thank you all for your prayers!!!! We love & appreciate ya #Harts."

The exciting news comes only weeks after the couple experienced a false alarm. "No labor yet guys....false alarm," Hart tweeted afterward, having just canceled a radio interview. "We are getting close tho. Waiting patiently for the arrival of our little man!!! #Harts."

The actor clearly couldn't wait to become a father again! "I'm definitely going to rock that. My whole thing is being a cool dad," Hart told Entertainment Tonight earlier this year. "I'm also thinking about inventing those hip pouches...where the baby could just be in this thing on my hip and I can chill. I just throw the baby on the hip, so that way I don't really [have] to do nothing with my hands." As he added, "I'm just being different. My thing is as a thug dad, you got to learn how to mix it up."

As Nicki Swift previously reported, Hart threw his expecting wife a lavish baby shower in early October. Sparing no expense on the Lion King-themed event, he spent a whopping $117,855. "We couldn't afford a lion, so we got the dog and just put the [mane] around the dog," he joked in a Snapchat video (via E! News). "It's still ballin'; it's just on a budget!"

Hart, 38, and Parrish, 33, married in August 2016 after dating for several years. They first announced they were expecting in May. The Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle star is also a father to two children, daughter Heaven, 12, and son Hendrix, 10, from his previous relationship with Torrei Hart, whom he divorced in 2011.

Congratulations to the happy couple!
