Connie Britton announced earlier this month that she adopted a baby boy from Ethiopia and now we get a first look at little Eyob!

The "American Horror Story" actress was spotted out with her son, who is nicknamed Yoby, having lunch at the Ivy Restaurant in Beverly Hills on Saturday, along with some other family members.

Britton recently shared details about the first time she met her baby with PEOPLE.

"It was such a wonderful moment of completion," she said about holding him for the first time. "I thought I was going to collapse into a puddle of tears. I was just grinning from ear to ear."

Check out a photo of Britton and Eyob below!

Eyob ?? Is that the baby's name?? if so, he will endure ridicule all his life. First with that name and second because he has a white Mother..

To take in a child from anywhere and give it the love and care it needs is a noble thing to do no matter who you are. These so-called 'celebs' have the financial means to do that. What is so wrong with it? I do agree that there are too many babies here in the US who need adopting, but the system makes it very difficult. I'm sure that if a US baby was adopted by any celebrity, the biological parents would somehow try to capitalize on that fact ... time to bring back the closed adoption. Once you give your baby up for adoption, your rights should be completely severed until the child becomes an adult at the age of 18. Then those records should be available to the child only and let that child make the decision to seek out the biological parents. Sometimes our rights go a little bit too far in this country to where it's detrimental to others in that the rights of others are stomped on. Just try to be nice, people. Is that so hard to do?

Aw, what a cute little fashion accessory she bought.

The COMMON choice of children to adopt by White Americans are either White or Asian children. Why are you criticizing the RARE choice made by a few celebraties? SMH

Have any of you tried to adopt a baby in the US? It is hard process for both domestic and international. In the US you also have to worry that if the bio parent changes their mind you could lose the baby after he/she has been in your care! As an adpotive parent, I take offense that anyone would think that anyone celebrity or not would adopt a child as a trendy show piece! If any of you had done your research before commenting, I am sure his name is an Ethopian name.

I agree I was going to write a comment about that, we have so many kids in USA who love to have a good home, but I think Hollywood love to see an actor with a Black African Baby..........that look so good they think I think they should better do a good action and adopt kids here in USA who really needed

Thank you! Well said.

Who is Connie Britton? LOL

Many, many children of all races need loving homes here in the United States. Seems to me that Angelina Jolie started this whole thing and now they've all jumped on the bandwagon for their own agendas! It's all for attention!! I agree with a lot of the other posts; babies/children from other countries seem to be the latest accessory to carry in Hollywood and what is up with that name?

With their money, why not adopt an AMERICAN baby?? We have plenty of unwanted babies here..especially black babies who are negleted by their fathers !!

Isn't there a Winnie The Pooh character with a similar name? Eyore or something like that. I think it's great she adopted but why not give the kid a normal name?
