Drew Scott is a dad! The Property Brothers co-star and his wife, Linda Phan have announced the arrival of their son, Parker James.
The couple has been very open about their infertility journey since they decided to grow their family. They shared that they were expecting via IVF on a blog post back in March that “It’s still kind of blurry, how we got from there to here. It felt like a time warp, every month like ‘Groundhog Day,’ but you keep going through the motions—the doctor appointments, the medications, the tests, the blood work, the pep talks — hoping for the best. And then, bam!”
The Instagram announcement was short and sweet: “Our lives are forever changed. Welcome to the world Parker James.”
Mom and dad shared the happy news of their new bundle of joy on the Jun. 1 episode of their podcast, At Home in addition to Drew’s Instagram account. It turns out, Parker joined the fam on his parent’s fourth wedding anniversary, May 12.
On the podcast, Phan reports feeling “pooped” but happy. So basically, she’s already a full-blown mom. She also shared some L&D details, like the fact she labored for 44 hours, had an epidural and a C-section due to the long labor time.
Dad reports Parker was eight pounds, eight ounces and isn’t much of a crier (lucky). He also shares that dirty diapers don’t bother him and that he has a better appreciation for being home now.
The new parents will be taking a break from their podcast as they adjust to their new life of three. After Parker “stole the show” on the duo’s anniversary, we’re guessing he’s bound to do the same on future episodes of the podcast and Property Brothers, too.
