*Candiace Dillard Bassett welcomed her first child with husband Chris Bassett, on Oct. 3, and now the couple is sharing pics of their son Jett Maxwell Lee Bassett.
“He is just the cutest little thing,” Candiace told PEOPLE in a new interview. “Chris and I couldn’t be happier. It’s so cliché to say, but he’s brought such joy to our lives in ways I never would have been able to describe before. It’s pure love!”
“I just look at him and envision all the adventures we’re going to have,” she continues.
“Throughout my pregnancy, when I would talk to him in my stomach, I would say, ‘I can’t wait to see who you’re going to be.’ And that’s been the joy in my heart that’s continued after his birth. It’s exciting to think about. I’m so ready for a lifetime of being on the sidelines, cheering him on,” “The Real Housewives of Potomac” alum added.
Per PEOPLE, Jett’s first name translates from Hebrew to excellence and abundance.

“The meaning of his name was really important to me. I mean, there were a lot of names I liked that had meanings I did not like, so that just automatically tossed them out,” Candiace explained to the outlet. “But as soon as I read the meaning of his name, I was like, ‘This is it. This is his name.’ “
Candiace is already thinking about having more kids.
“Oh, I wish I started sooner, because I already want more,” she said.
“And that’s a shocking feeling to admit because I hesitated and was afraid and doubted myself for so long. All of those circumstances around becoming a mom, like being pregnant, raising a child, etc.? It really scared me. But it’s been everything and more. I love it,” the R&B singer added.
“I wish I hadn’t waited so long. But I also don’t regret that this is where I am now and that things worked out the way they did,” she continued. “And in a way, that’s comforting to recognize I don’t regret it, you know? Like, I’ve really welcomed every part of this journey with open arms, as it’s happened.”
