Richie wrote on her Web site: "In the middle of night, the very early hours of September 9, 2009, Sparrow James Midnight Madden was born to Nicole Richie and Joel Madden ... He weighs 7lbs 14oz. Nicole, Joel, Harlow [their 19-month-old daughter] and Sparrow are all doing well. Thank you for all of your good wishes."
Sparrow joins sister Harlow, who was born in January of 2008. Following Harlow's birth, Richie, 27, said that her new baby "gives life a whole new meaning and a whole new purpose."
Richie reportedly entered the hospital over the holiday weekend, and while her actual labor day came a little later, a note on her website says everyone is A-OK:
"Nicole, Joel, Harlow and Sparrow are all doing well. Thank you for all of your good wishes."
Richie and Madden—who have been dating since 2006 and planning their wedding since before the birth of daughter Harlow 19 months ago—announced the news of baby No. 2 back on Oscar Sunday.
The 30-year-old Good Charlotte frontman wrote on his blog, "What's better than winning an Oscar? I am so happy to tell everyone that Harlow is going to be a big sister! God has truly blessed my family!"
Rocker Madden, 31, agreed with Richie's sentiments, telling PEOPLE that "having a baby is the most exciting thing that's ever happened to me, and to us."
Best of luck to you both and your new bundle of joy... xoxo
