Celebrity tattoo artist and makeup mogul Kat Von D and her husband, Leafar Seyer, recently welcomed their first child, a son.

The couple named their new addition Leafar Von D Reyes (Kat’s husband’s birth name is Rafael Reyes). The name Leafar is, of course, ‘Rafael’ spelled backward.

Kat took to Instagram to share the announcement, captioning a photo of her husband holding their baby: “Meet our beautiful baby boy, Leafar Von D Reyes. Thank you to all our beloved friends+family, fans+followers for your patience in us announcing his long awaited arrival!”

She also explained that they might be a bit preoccupied with parenting, noting: “To be honest, my husband @prayers and I want to take the next 40 days [the 4th trimester] to focus on the baby and our amazing relationship transitioning into amazing parenthood — so, please excuse us if we’re not on here as much for a little while. Just know we love you all and thank you for all the words of love+support!”

Kat and Leafar were married in February and announced in May that they were having a boy.
