Mila Raines and Thomas Becker have exciting news to share: they’ve welcomed a baby boy into their family! This marks the arrival of their second child, making their toddler daughter, Lila, a thrilled big sister.
The couple announced the birth of their son, who arrived on November 30th at 1:21 AM, weighing 8 pounds and 15 ounces. They chose the name Dimitri James for their little one. Interestingly, the revelation about the baby’s gender came about when Thomas inadvertently spilled the beans during an interview on a morning show in October. He shared how Lila reacted to the announcement, saying, “She points to Mila’s belly and says, ‘baby brother,’ then points to me and says, ‘Juice,’ so I think she’s catching on but may not fully understand what’s happening yet.”
It sounds like Lila might have inherited her parents’ delightful sense of humor! As for Mila, her candidness about motherhood is refreshing. She often talks about ensuring her children don’t grow up spoiled, despite their parents’ success. In a podcast earlier this year, she shared, “It’s essential to instill in them from a young age that while Mommy and Daddy have money, they’re in a different world. They may be poor, but we have a bank account.”
Mila has also opened up about the challenges of breastfeeding in public, telling a magazine, “We were surprised by the judgmental looks we received. It’s not a sexual act, and yet our culture tends to sexualize the breast. It’s unfortunate because breastfeeding is a natural choice, and I respect everyone’s differing views. If it’s not for you, just look away.”
While we await more details about Dimitri’s name and personality, it’s safe to say he will have a unique and adorable name just like his sister Lila. Congratulations to the whole family on this joyous addition!
