Debby Ryan has welcomed her first child with rocker husband Josh Dun - and revealed their little one was born during a home birth earlier this month.

The 32-year-old actress -- who announced her pregnancy back in September -- jumped to her Instagram page on Saturday to share the big news alongside intimate footage of the home birth.

The former Disney channel star -- who tied the knot with the Twenty One Pilots drummer in 2019 -- also revealed that they welcomed a baby girl whose name is Felix Winter Dun.

'We sat under the full moon -- the cold supermoon -- reminiscing on our life as a family of two, and told the child I was harboring that we were ready to become three,' Ryan penned in the caption.
'By midday, Felix was born under christmas lights with snow outside our bedroom window, right into her father's hands.'

The new mom then gave a special shoutout to her husband for being 'an incredible teammate.'

She also thanked her 'incredible birth team' while reflecting on 'the strength and wisdom of some women who have supported me on this journey near and far.'

The star also gushed about her newborn, writing that, 'Her hair is made of silk and her breath smells like vanilla ice cream and every chirp, squeak and whimper is music and everytime I look away and look back, she's gotten smaller somehow.'

'I know too soon, I'll look away and look back and she'll be bigger and bigger still so for now I'd like to spend my days trapped under the immovable 8 pounds of Felix Winter Dun.'

Ryan concluded her caption by expressing how she is embracing motherhood.

'I’ve been a lot of things but her home, a grow light, a portal to bring a new soul into the world -- these are my greatest honors. Welcome to earth lil moonbeam. Love you forever.'

Social media users and other celebrities jumped to the comment section to offer their congratulations to the new parents.

Mad Men alum January Jones typed, 'Congratulations!!' followed by three red heart emojis.

Twenty One Pilots frontman Tyler Joseph wrote, 'you did it,' while former Nickelodeon star Jennette McCurdy simply added, 'felix.'

The actress also showed a few images of her baby girl Felix resting on her chest - with another snap taken as Dun bonded with his newborn daughter as well.

AnnaSophia Robb also shared in the comments, 'congratulations! Welcome to the world lil Angel!'

In her latest Instagram carousel, Ryan gave glimpses at her newborn baby girl as well as a look at the intimate home birth.

One slide included a short reel as the actress sat inside an inflatable pool while leaning on the edge. Her husband could be seen comforting Ryan as he crouched down next to her.

A Christmas tree was lit up in the background and snow could be seen outside of the window.

Another picture was taken as their little one rested inside a small crib with a Christmas tree lighting up the room.

Lastly, the former Disney channel star included a photo of a snow-covered deck and a moon shining bright in the sky.

Earlier this year in September, Ryan announced her first pregnancy with the Twenty One Pilots drummer.

At the time, she shared a series of snaps to Instagram with the caption: 'dun&dun +one.'

One picture was taken as the actress showed off her growing baby bump as her husband rested his hand on her stomach.

The music artist gently kissed her neck while also holding a pair of tiny checkered Vans shoes.

In another picture, Ryan could be seen leaning against a wall inside a bathroom while cradling her baby bump.

The star first began dating the drummer in 2013 -- and the couple later said 'I do' on December 31, 2019.

The ceremony took place in Austin, Texas and it was also revealed that the big day was planned in less than a month.

Ryan previously told Vogue in 2020 how the nuptials came to be with only 28 days of planning.

'We began to flirt with the idea of having a destination party celebrating the new decade, then decided in December to get married [in Austin] on New Year's Eve, and just keep dancing until after the ball dropped,' she explained.

The lovebirds tied the knot inside a church, with the actress telling the outlet, 'It became more and more important to us that the sanctity of the union exist in a reverent place.

'I think I saw every church in the greater Austin area and narrowed it down to two. Joshua chose the one we went with. The stained glass windows really got me.'

Ryan and Dun -- who will celebrate their sixth wedding anniversary later this month -- currently reside in Columbus, Ohio.
