Jared Padalecki and wife Genevieve Cortese just welcomed their baby boy, Thomas Colton Padalecki.

Padalecki tweeted the happy news, “It’s a boy!”

His bodyguard Clif Kosterman played the PR role as well, announcing via his Twitter, “Baby was born in Seattle, all other details will be delivered by J and G.

The couple got married on February 2010 and this is their first baby together. After the pregnancy announcement, the couple requested that fans contribute to St. Jude’s Research Hospital. And so far, over $40,000 have been raised which the couple in turn plans to match.

Congratulations!
