Jed and Katey welcomed a baby girl.

The couple announced the happy news with a post on their Instagram account, sharing a photo of their baby girl sleeping as she's all wrapped up in a blanket that reveals her name: Nora Kate.

Her parents wrote: "She’s here! And we’re so in love. Welcome to the world, sweet girl."

They also shared their first photo as a family of four.

It looks like big brother Truett, who just celebrated his first birthday in May, was able to visit his mom in the hospital to meet his new baby sister. He looks so excited in this picture!

We're sure this is just the first of many photos we'll see of the new family of four.

Jed and Katey's birth vlog is already up.

These two (much like Joy and Austin Forsyth) vlog frequently on YouTube, and they wasted no time posting the video from Nora's birth online! They shared it all, from Katey in labor in her hospital bed to the moment her baby girl was born. Jed's mom, Michelle Duggar, was even in the room when Nora made her entrance.

Jed's been making headlines for a lot of reasons this week.

Along with the birth of his daughter, Jed has been busy defending his family against those who are criticizing it in the wake of Amazon Prime Video's docuseries, Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets this week. Things got dialed up a notch when his sister, Jill, announced that she would be publishing a memoir about the "manipulation" their family had subjected her to called Counting the Cost, which is set to hit stores next year.

"Excuse you, but you don't know our family at all," Jed wrote in an Instagram comment on Jill's book announcement post. "Please don't make assumptions about things that 100% none of your business. The true shame is on you."

Their family is about to get even busier.

Having two under two isn't exactly a walk in the park, but after coming from such a big family, hopefully Jed is up to the task. We're looking forward to seeing new updates on baby Nora Kate as she grows. She and Truett are lucky to grow up with a sibling so close in age!
