Alanis Morissette has released the first photograph of her son.

The Canadian singer posted a family picture of her with her husband Mario 'Souleye' Treadway and their first child together Ever Imre Morissette-Treadway via her twitter page.

She accompanied the link with a message that simply read "amazing".

The photo shows Mario cradling the baby in his hands, while a smiling Alanis gazes into her spouse's eyes as she loving rests her hand on Ever's head.

Alanis - who married Mario in May 2010 - gave birth to Ever on Christmas Day (25.12.10).

The 'You Oughta Know' singer previously admitted it came as a shock to her when she discovered she was pregnant.

The 36-year-old musician only found out she was expecting her son after visiting her doctor for another medical reason.

She said: "I went to the doctor and he said, 'Well this looks like the scan of a pregnant lady.'

"I actually thought I wasn't. But I mentioned in passing that I was a bit late, so he said, 'Well let's just take a quick look.' "
