Anne-Marie Morrow had something to smile about on Mothers’ Day. The wife of Dallas Stars’ Brenden Morrow gave birth to twins!
Brady was born at 1:53 pm. He weighed 5 lb, 13 oz. His sister Mallory followed him a minute later. She tipped the scales at 6 lb. The twins join big sister Bryelle Mackenzie.
“As hard as he’s been going, and just the thought of bringing two new lives in this world in one day on Mothers’ Day, I can’t imagine a better feeling,” Brenden’s teammate Marty Turco told the Star Telegram. “He’s always been a lucky guy. We are a lucky group to have him around, and this is a special day for him and his family.”
It sure is! What a wonderful Mothers’ Day present!

Lou Diamond Phillips took his whole family out for a Mothers’ Day dinner at Nobu restaurant. Here he is with his wife Yvonne Boismier Phillips, mom Lucita Upchurch Phillips, and little Indigo Sanara in the pram.
I love Lou’s velvet jacket, not to mention how cute he looks pushing the stroller! What a good guy!

Marissa Jaret Winokur is burning up the floor on Dancing with the Stars, and the hectic schedule has left her with little time for anything else. And that includes getting ready for her son Zev’s arrival in July!
“I’m completely freaking out!” she told People magazine. “I’m so ill-prepared for this baby, I thought for sure that I’d have the nursery done, but DWTS has taken over, and I don’t even have a bassinet!”
But she did manage to fit in a little shopping at Sunday’s Silver Spoon Dog and Baby Buffet. She attended the event with her dance partner Tony Dovolani, fellow DWTS dancer Drew Lachey, and his wife Lea.
“I was literally on a ‘guerilla’ mission to get baby stuff. I told Tony that we were leaving the dance studio for two hours, and that I was going to get things for my baby! There are women that came up to me, and they were like, ‘We’re the baby planners,’ and I was like, ‘Give me your card, and please help me have this baby!’ I learned more about what I need to know about my baby from the first ten tables here then I knew before.”
Aww, I know there’s not much time left but I’m sure Marissa will end up getting organized when she needs to be. Somehow new mothers always do!

Madonna and her husband Guy Ritchie have been granted permanent custody of two-year-old David Banda.
She will no longer need to appear in a Malawi court after African authorities found David has grown into “a happy thriving toddler” under the couple’s care.
Madonna and Guy needed to show the Malawi government they could offer a safe home environment, protection, care, and emotional support. The adoption will be formalized on May 15.
Congratulations to the Ritchie family! David always looks happy whenever we see him, and I’m sure he’ll continue to be so under their care.

David Duchovny spent Saturday with his five-year-old son Kyd Miller in Malibu. David took Kyd to baseball practice before shopping for the perfect Mothers’ Day present for Tea Leoni. Shopping is hungry work so the pair then stopped for some lunch. Those noodles look good!

Model Alex Curran and her husband, Liverpool footballer Steven Gerrard, are proud parents of four-year-old Lily-Ella and two-year-old Lexie. But they’re in no rush to add another child to their happy family.
“I’d like to wait a few years. I think two girls are fine, but having three little ones at home is a completely different story,” Alex told OK! magazine.
The girls idolize their mom and enjoy copying everything she does.
“It’s actually quite funny but they are terrible for copying me. Everything I’ve got they just want. I can’t put anything down for a second because it’s just gone. I can’t leave my car keys because they’ll pick them up.”
She says the sisters get on “really well,” and adds that Lily is “such a daddy’s girl.
“If she sees Lexie getting hugs she’ll push her away. It’s all very sweet. She loves speaking to Steven [on the phone]. He always rings to speak to her before a game. When it rings she’ll walk over all dead cool, pick it up and she’ll be like: ‘Is that you, Dad?’ It’s hilarious and dead cute. I’ll hear her chatting away and then she’ll say: ‘All right then, good luck, Dad!’ It’s dead sweet.”
It certainly sounds it!

The most popular American baby names of 2007 are in! The usual suspects Emily and Jacob came out on top for a second year, but the biggest movers are a little more interesting. These hot new names all point to continued celebrity obsession.
Before last year Miley didn’t even make the list. Now thanks to the popularity of Hannah Montana and its star Miley Cyrus, the name’s at number 278, making it the most popular new name.
It’s common for people to name their babies after their favorite stars, but a little more unusual for a celebrity baby name to become popular. That’s exactly what’s happened with Gwen Stefani’s son Kingston though: the name is the second biggest mover on the list! The Baby Name Wizard says Kingston’s appeal is threefold: “a place name, ending in the uber-popular letter n, with the ultimate power nickname of King.”
Mylee is the third hottest mover on the baby name list. Mylie is at number 24. Are we noticing a trend?
Jordin takes the number four spot, propelled by the success of American Idol winner Jordin Sparks. While Jordin’s sunny nature obviously has something to do with it, there’s a little more to it. Jordin’s unique spelling of Jordan gave parents a feminine version of this unisex name. In fact, Jordan with an a was less popular this year, while more parents of boys opted for this spelling.
Number five on the list is another name made popular through the power of reality TV: Jaslene. Jaslene Gonzalez was the first Peurto Rican beauty to take out the America’s Next Top Model crown, and she inspired many namesakes in the process.
Miley, Kingston, and Jordin all seem to have a classic appeal to them despite their recent popularity. But I can’t help thinking that Jaslene may not sound like such a good idea when those babies grow up! What do you think?
