After his fourth child, Alec, was born on July 19, Vance said President Donald Trump called him and encouraged him to take some time off. When Vance mentioned that he had a meeting scheduled for the following day, Trump jokingly told him to take the day off\u2014suggesting that was all the leave he would receive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the joke, Vance explained that he was able to spend considerably more time with his family during the weeks following Alec\u2019s birth. He said his priority was making sure the newborn was healthy and helping the family adjust to having another child at home while continuing to manage the demands of his position as vice president.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cHave you said thank you once?\u201d \u2013<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/VP?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@VP<\/a> JD Vance <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kDu0o6gDd4\">pic.twitter.com\/kDu0o6gDd4<\/a><\/p>&mdash; The White House (@WhiteHouse) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/WhiteHouse\/status\/1895597006384742685?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 28, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alec\u2019s arrival was also a notable moment in U.S. history. Vance became the first sitting vice president in roughly 150 years to welcome a child while serving in office. Vance and his wife, Second Lady Usha Vance, announced that both mother and baby were doing well and expressed their appreciation for the medical staff who cared for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Usha has also spoken about the family\u2019s decision to have another child. She admitted that expanding their family initially brought some uncertainty, but those concerns quickly disappeared after Alec arrived. Their three older children have reportedly embraced their new role as siblings, eagerly taking turns holding and spending time with their baby brother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Thank you for all the good wishes as we settle into life as a family of six. \ud83e\ude75<br><br>Meet Alec \u2014 and enjoy these attempts at taking a decent family photo with four kids! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oVZSiNdcHC\">pic.twitter.com\/oVZSiNdcHC<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Second Lady Usha Vance (@SLOTUS) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SLOTUS\/status\/2080659382593863848?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 24, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the demanding schedule that comes with being vice president, the couple says they make an effort to spend individual time with each of their children every day.
