TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Three's company for Gov. Ron DeSantis and wife Casey DeSantis.

The governor and first lady announced the birth of their third child Monday morning.

"Ron and I are beyond blessed to welcome our new baby girl, Mamie to the world," Casey DeSantis wrote on Twitter. "At 7 lbs 4 oz she was the smallest of the bunch, but she is already holding her own. Madison and Mason are so excited for their new baby sister!"

The governor, who has several coronavirus-related appearances scheduled for later in the day, shared the enthusiasm in a retweet of his wife's post.

"Counting our blessings," he wrote. "Casey and the kids are doing great."
