George W. Bush is enjoying the expansion of his family!
The 78-year-old former US president proudly shared on social media the birth of his new grandson.
In an adorable Instagram post, Bush congratulated his daughter Barbara Pierce Bush and her husband Craig Coyne on the arrival of their second child on Tuesday, August 6.
Just a few days ago, the couple—who also have a 2-year-old daughter named Cora Georgia—welcomed their son Edward Finn into the world.
In the touching photo, Barbara and Craig can be seen cradling their newborn son in a hospital bed, their faces glowing with joy as they gaze lovingly at their baby boy.
“Welcome to the world, Edward Finn Coyne. @laurawbush and I are proud grandparents of our newest blessing, born on August 4 and lovingly named in honor of his great-grandfathers,” Bush wrote in his caption. “Congratulations to Barbara, Craig, and big sister Cora Georgia.”
On Monday, August 5, Jenna Bush Hager, Barbara’s twin sister, initially broke the good news.
Co-anchor of the Today show, Jenna, turned to Instagram to share her joy at being an aunt once more.
Jenna, 42, wrote, “My sissy had a little mister and I fell madly in love with Edward Finn! ❤️💗👼,” as the caption for a collection of pictures that showed the joyous occasions after Edward’s birth.
In one of the photos, Jenna is shown tending to her new nephew, and in another, Jenna observes with admiration as Barbara holds Edward.
Edward is shown in a third picture in the exhibition, sleeping soundly in his mother’s arms.
Despite Jenna’s lack of information on her nephew’s birth, the pictures show the family’s happiness.
Notably, Today.com noted that Edward was spotted sporting a cap from NYU Langone Health, suggesting that Barbara might have given birth at the esteemed New York City hospital.
George W. Bush and his wife Laura have expressed their joy at becoming grandparents on previous occasions. The first lady and former president made a joint announcement to celebrate the birth of their daughter, Cora, together.
“With full hearts, @laurawbush and I are delighted to announce the birth of our new granddaughter. Barbara gave birth to Cora Georgia Coyne on September 27, 2021, in Maine – not far from our family home where Barbara and Craig were married,” they shared in October 2021. “Cora is healthy and adorable, and we are proud and grateful.”
How charming this new member of the Bush family is!
