Summer also shared a few pictures, along with the birth date, height, weight and length, adding that she could already see the similarities between the newborn and her parents.
“Our lives are forever changed … she has one cheek dimple like her mama and her daddy’s perfect skin,” Summer captioned the photos.

The couple, who wed in November of 2020, announced in September that they were expecting their first child.
“I’m ready to start a new adventure with my wonderful wife Summer and our new little one — Pardi of three!” Pardi told People at the time. “I’m really excited to meet our baby and to have someone to ride around the ranch with.”
The Pardis admitted that getting pregnant was not an easy task, and that they tried for a while before Summer finally became pregnant.
“It was definitely an interesting two years of ups and downs — the constant letdown month after month can really be hard on a couple,” Summer acknowledged. “After years of no luck and meeting with doctors who just didn’t feel like the right fit, we decided to take a break, leave it in God’s hands and just enjoy each other and this crazy, fun life we live together … and then surprise, we’re pregnant!”
Pardi may have a busy country music career, but his wife has no doubt he will be an excellent, hands-on father as well.
“He’s such a big kid at heart, always the life of the party, and has such positive energy so I can only imagine how much fun this little Pardi addition will be for him and our family,” Summer said. “I know [being parents] is going to be the greatest gift in the world.”
Pardi’s latest album, Mr. Saturday Night, was released in September. The record includes his recent No. 1 hit, “Last Night Lonely,” as well as his current single, “Your Heart or Mine.” He will enjoy some time at home before he resumes touring in April.
