“I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for all the well wishes for our little Shai. I’ve read all the beautiful blessings and he is without a doubt a lucky boy,” Murgatroyd, who is engaged to Maksim Chmerkovskiy, wrote in an Instagram post on Thursday. “He is a healthy boy with an incredible appetite for food and love. We can’t wait to share him with you, but for the first most crucial weeks of his life we’re just keeping him for ourselves and soaking up these moments. Thank you for your patience and all of your love!”

The accompanying photo featured a picture of Shai’s beautiful nursery, which the new parents had previously shared with PEOPLE, saying, “We wanted him to be comfortable and settled in his little corner of the world.”

The two “Dancing with the Stars” stars plan to tie the knot later this year, and we’re glad to hear their son is doing well!
