Bibbidi Bobbidi baby!
The Milwaukee Bucks’ Brook Lopez and his wife, Hailee, welcomed their first child together, a “sweet baby” boy named Julian Brook, on Feb. 4. Hailee shared the exciting news in a Wednesday Instagram post.
“I want to freeze time!!! 👼🏼🫧🧸🏹☁️” she captioned a photo of Julian in an adorable sweater embroidered with his name.
Disney fanatic Brook met Hailee at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. Exactly 13 years later, in August 2022, that’s where “Splash Mountain” proposed to her. They married in California in August.
This past fall, Hailee, owner of Honor Pilates, shared she was expecting on social media through a series of posts.
She captioned a picture of their dog: “our first baby.” Which was followed up by photos of her and Brook from their wedding day, using confetti cannons to reveal their baby’s gender. “our something blue,” she wrote.
“I’m excited,” Lopez told the Journal Sentinel at Bucks Media Day in the fall. “Definitely going to be asking some of my teammates for tips.”
Hailee has continued sharing tidbits of the journey on Instagram, from itty-bitty Adidas shoes to a glimpseof the nursery.
In late January, Hailee posted a picture holding her baby bump with one hand and Lopez’s hand with the other. “We can’t wait to meet you 🕊️” her caption read.
