Christian was reportedly born weighing six pounds and six ounces on Wednesday, September 21 at 12:05AM in Franklin, TN.
"Being a dad is already so rewarding, and I am treasuring this special time with Christina and our son," Scott, 31, told the magazine.
"I have always wanted to be a mom," added his wife, "and Christian is a beautiful gift. He is a calm and easygoing little guy just like his dad!"
Scott and Christina announced they were expected a son in June.
Scott was born blind and previously underwent a kidney transplant at age 22 after he was diagnosed with kidney failure in his late teens.
In June 2015, he was reportedly suffering from kidney failure again when a stranger offered to anonymously donate a kidney to the singer, which allowed him to become a dad.
Christina's pregnancy was first announced in April, with Scott gushing about his opportunity to become a dad.
"It's crazy," MacIntyre told People at the time.
"It was not possible for us to have a baby while I was in kidney failure, so my donor not only gave me the gift of life but also allowed us to create a new life."
American Idol's eighth season aired back in early 2009 and concluded with Kris Allen being named the winner. Scott made it to the Top 8.
