Contemporary Christian star Natalie Grant gave birth to her third daughter in Nashville on Friday morning, December 17. Sadie Rose Herms was due on Christmas Day but arrived a week early for the Dove Award winning songstress and her producer/songwriter husband, Bernie Herms. Born at 8:35 AM, Sadie Rose weighed in at 7 pounds, 6 ounces and measured 19 inches long.

"Perfect, healthy and GORGEOUS!" Natalie tweeted about her early, miracle Christmas gift Friday morning.

Sadie Rose joins twin sisters Isabella and Grace, who were born in February 2007 after Natalie and Bernie were told they may never be able to conceive.

Natalie will resume touring in February 2011 when she hits the road with Christian rock band MercyMe and contemporary Christian artist Brandon Heath on tour. Her latest album, 'Love Revolution,' is the highest-selling debut of her career.
