Born February 29th as a leap year baby, and weighing in at 7 pounds, Charlotte is the first baby for Kirch and Nemetz, who wed in January following the announcement of their back in September.

This announcement comes as a special one for fans of Kirch’s band The Maine who have been missing him on the recent tour.

Following their pregnancy announcement, Kirch took to social media just one month ago to inform fans that he would be taking a brief hiatus from touring with the band so that he could be at home with his wife and newborn.

And after this news, we are so happy he did.

Congratulations Pat and Shacara! We wish you both all the best with baby Charlotte.
