Congratulations to Liv Tyler and her boyfriend Dave Gardner, who welcomed a baby boy to the world on February 11 - six weeks ahead of schedule.
Despite his early arrival, it was a long wait for baby #2 for the 37-year-old actress, who also has 10-year-old son Milo with her ex-husband Royston Langdon. It sounds like the new baby is a dream come true for Liv, who revealed last Fall, “If you knew me well, they were the things my heart longed for. And they all came together, like a speeding freight train, in one year.”
With her little one just 10 days old, the gorgeous mama took to Instagram to share a sweet photo of his tiny hands clutching a pendant with an anchor on it - a clue to his unusual, nautical name.
"Sailor Gene Gardner," Liv captioned the shot.

Liv isn't the only member of the Tyler family who is over the moon about the new addition. Grandpa Steven Tyler, of Aerosmith fame, hopped a plane so that he could be there for Sailor's birth.
"When I got the call that Liv was going into labor, after crying like a baby myself, I immediately dropped everything and went to to the airport to get on the next available flight," the rocker wrote on Facebook. "When I landed I kept calling my daughter MIA who was already helping Liv and she kept giving me minute by minute updates,’HURRY THE BABY IS COMING!’ I made it RIGHT in time before my second grandson entered this world. It was another (God wink) moment of a lifetime for me.”
So what do you think of the name Sailor? I think it's sort of sweet, although I admit I usually associate it with girls rather than boys. That being said, gender-bending baby names are a hot trend (Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds seem to love it!) so it seems Liv has her finger on the pulse.
Boys only! Liv Tyler is one of many celebrity moms who have welcomed only sons...
