Ree Drummond’s daughter Alex Drummond Scott has welcomed her first baby, officially making the Pioneer Woman star a grandmother!

On Wednesday, Dec. 18, Alex, 27 welcomed her first baby, a daughter named Sofia Marie, with her husband Mauricio Scott. The new mom shared the exciting news on Instagram, alongside a gallery of black and white photos of the couple with their new baby.

“At 2:27am our perfect girl made her arrival a couple weeks early, just in time for Christmas! We are so in love and forever changed,” the couple’s caption read. “Thank you Lord.”

Ree, 55, also shared her excitement for the milestone on her Pioneer Woman website, where she published a photo of herself cradling Sofia in her arms. The proud grandma called Sofia “perfect.”

“I’m saying that with as much objectivity as I can,” Ree wrote. “But I’m not kidding…she is perfect. Like, if you looked up ‘perfect’ in Miriam Webster, it would reference Sofia Scott, and maybe even show a photo of her. Although that would probably technically be an encyclopedia.”

In October, Alex shared pictures on Instagram from her floral-themed baby shower attended by family and friends, and also revealed the name she and her husband Mauricio Scott picked out for their baby girl.

“Yesterday was everything I could ever dream of celebrating our Sofia Marie. 🥹💕,” she captioned the post, shared on Sunday, Oct. 20. “Praise the Lord for these wonderful women and so many more!”

Ree also shared pictures from the celebratory event on her Pioneer Woman website. She gushed about the details put into the baby shower thrown by Alex’s college friends and her sister, Paige Drummond.

“Finger food, a mimosa bar, petit fours, and lots of Dr Pepper” were served at the party, Ree wrote.

Also at the shower were other lovely touches, including champagne flutes with ribbons tied around the stems, a calendar for everyone to guess what Alex’s due date will be, baby pink cowgirl boots and photos of the parents-to-be.
