On December 23, 2017, the Florida Georgia Line family grew by one when the band’s Tyler Hubbard and his wife Hayley welcomed a baby girl into the world. Named Olivia Rose, the precious child has already been embraced by the country music community and fans worldwide. Among little Olivia’s doting fans is Hubbard’s bandmade, Brian Kelley, who met Olivia on Thursday (Jan. 4).

“Hard not to get emotional while meeting this precious angel today oh my Lord what a blessing! @thubbmusic@hayley_hubbard so so proud of y’all! What a beautiful story God is writing 🙏🏼🎉😂😁😬 y’all got parents of the year on lock already 👊🏼,” Kelley wrote, along with a photo of him and his wife Brittney with Olivia.

In the photo, Kelley could hardly contain his excitement for his friend as he grinned from ear to ear, while Brittney stared in awe at the bundled up baby.

The Tribe Kelley founders weren’t the only famous friends to meet Olivia in her early days. RaeLynn also got to snuggle the little girl, as seen in a snap posted to her Instagram just days before the new year.

Olivia Rose… I love you.

“Olivia Rose… I love you,” the “Lonely Call” singer sweetly wrote on the photo of her kissing Olivia on the head.

Olivia was born on December 23, just two days before Christmas, making her the ideal present for the first-time parents.

“We’re so overwhelmed with joy and already more in love than we could have ever imagined with this little angel that God has given us,” Tyler told PEOPLE, adding, “Olivia is the best Christmas gift we could have ever asked for.”

Hubbard will enjoy fatherhood for awhile longer as he and Kelley have some time off the road before the country music festival season begins in the spring. No word has been revealed yet on if FGL is planning a 2018 tour.
