Congratulations are in order for the Bush family! Jenna Bush Hager announced the birth of her nephew, Barbara Pierce Bush's second child, on Monday.
"My sissy had a little mister and I fell madly in love with Edward Finn! ❤️💗👼," Jenna wrote on Instagram, sharing a photo of herself feeding the newborn from a bottle inside NYU Langone's Tisch Hospital in New York City. The carousel also included a shot of the twin sisters together with baby Edward, as well as a close-up picture of the baby's face.
Baby Edward joins big sister Cora Georgia, who was born in 2021. Barbara has been married to her husband, Craig Coyne, since 2019.
Last year, Jenna and Barbara joined forces to release a children's book, Love Comes First. The offering was inspired by their grandmother, the late First Lady Barbara Bush.
While promoting the book launch, Barbara opened up about feeling her grandmother's presence after unexpectedly going into labor six weeks early in Kennebunkport, Maine.
Baby Cora was then admitted to the NICU at the Barbara Bush Children's Hospital in Portland, Maine, which was named after the former First Lady in 1998.
Speaking about the shocking moment with her sister on Today, Barbara broke down in tears.
"I went to visit her in the NICU and looked on the wall and it said Barbara Bush Children's Hospital, so it just felt very divine that she was born here and she got excellent care," Barbara said of little Cora.
"It was as if she was looking down," a tearful Jenna added.

Back in 2022, Jenna and Barbara sat down with ET and showed off their sisterly bond while interviewing each other to promote their book, The Superpower Sisterhood.
"We only know the world together," Barbara shared at the time. "I think we've always been more powerful together, because we've never not had someone walking alongside us. All the scary moments in life when you're little, like, the first day of school or for us, unusual moments like going to the inauguration when we were seven, these intimidating days actually weren't that intimidating 'cause we had someone whose hand we could hold when we were walking in. So, I think we've always been more powerful together."
Jenna added, "I tell everybody that if you don't have that superhood... that sisterhood at work, create it. Find the person that you get along with, ask them to get a cup of coffee, because it's so much fun to have this incredible group of sisters to work with."
