Usher welcomes second son

NEW YORK -- Usher has gotten an early holiday gift -- a second son.

The 29-year-old singer and his wife, Tameka, are celebrating the birth of Naviyd Ely Raymond. The infant arrived early Wednesday, weighing 5 pounds, 13 ounces.

A statement from the couple released Thursday read: "Tameka and the baby are doing fine."

This is the second child for the couple, who were married in August 2007. Their first boy, Usher Raymond V, was born last November.

Tameka Raymond has three children from a previous marriage.
