NBC News/MSNBC anchor Katy Tur and CBS News correspondent Tony Dokoupil are now parents of a baby boy born on Saturday.
Theodore “Teddy” Dokoupil came into the world at 6 pounds, 5 ounces.
“He stretches nearly 20 inches,” her good friend and MSNBC colleague Kasie Hunt said on-air this afternoon. “Mom, dad and tiny Teddy are all doing great.”
Welcome baby Teddy Dokoupil! We love you already! @KatyTurNBC @tonydokoupil https://t.co/UFA2V00XPl

The prior Saturday, fellow NBC Newser Morning Joe First Look anchor Ayman Mohyeldin and his wife Kenza Fourati welcomed a son, Idris Mohyeldin, born on April 6 at 6:54 a.m. weighing 6 pounds, 11 ounces.
Mom and baby are doing great, and older sister Dora is already helping with the feedings and changes.
Congrats to the happy families.
