Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and her rocker husband, Pete Wentz, have finally welcomed their first child! The 24-year-old pop star gave birth to son Bronx Mowgli Wentz on Thursday night at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Reportedly, Bronx weighed 7 pounds, 11 ounces.  
  
"We are happy beyond words and incredibly proud of Ashlee and Pete," Simpson's parents, Joe and Tina Simpson, said in a statement. "They are unbelievable parents already, and we can't wait to spend Bronx's first holidays together with the whole family. We are truly blessed." It appears that Bronx has already begun to work his charm and spent the first night "smiling at everyone who came into the room," according to Pete Sr. and Dale Wentz.  
  
According to People.com, a spokesperson for the couple says, "Ashlee, Pete and baby Bronx are all healthy and happy, and thank everyone for their well wishes!"
