Jamie Lynn Spears gave birth to baby girl Maddie Briann this morning. The father is Jamie Lynn's boyfriend Cassey Aldridge (but don't quote me on that.) People reports:

"Just the family was there," says a source about the birth around 9:30 a.m. at a hospital in Mississippi, near her Louisiana hometown. "Everyone is healthy and happy."

What's awesome is the pictures above were taken last night at El Dorado Mexican restaurant. They say spicy food jump starts the labor process, so obviously she was ready to get this thing done. Either that or Britney put a gun to her head and demanded tacos now. Don't give her no lip about contractions. Ha ha, sisters.

Congratulations to Jamie Lynn and Casey. I look forward to hearing Maddie's first single next week.
