Thomas Rhett and his wife, Lauren, welcomed daughter Ada James into the world last night (Aug. 12).

After 36 hours of labor, Ada James was born at 10:28 p.m. and weighed 7 lbs., 3 oz.

Both TR and Lauren posted the news on Instagram, with TR saying: “Last night at 10:28 PM Ada James Akins was born and it was truly the most amazing thing I have ever experienced. I can’t believe that we have two daughters!! My wife @laur_akins labored almost 36 hours😳She is by far the strongest human being I have ever met and I have a new found respect for moms around the world. We are so excited that Willa Gray has a baby sister! Thank you Lord and everyone for the prayers🙌🏼 #outnumbered”

Lauren noted: “Our baby girl is here💗 sweet Ada James Akins came into the world at 10:28 last night after almost 36 hours of labor (only Jesus got me through that-& she is sooo worth it😭💛). She weighs 7 pounds 3 ounces and is so stinking cute I just can’t take it! We are all doing well now, just resting. Thank y’all for your prayers-she is a miracle and God is so good. Thomas Rhett and I are so I love with her. And Willa Gray is so excited to finally have a baby sister 😘 More pics to come”

Ada James joins older sister Willa Gray, 21 months, who Lauren and TR adopted from Uganda in May.

Congrats to the happy family.
