Jenna Elfman to welcome her second son

Although we already announced that Jenna Elfman is expecting her second child, we recently learned that it’s going to be a boy!

The actress’s rep shared with Celebrity Baby Blog that Jenna and her hubby Bodhi Elfman are going to be welcoming their second son into the world come March of next year.

We wonder what little Story Elias, 2, will think of having a baby brother to push around for the rest of his life?

Jenna currently stars in Accidentally on Purpose, a sitcom where she plays a woman who gets impregnated by a younger man during a one-night stand.

Ramona Singer thinks Bethenny will be a good mom

At the Animal Fair magazine Halloween Pet Costume Party in New York City on Monday, Ramona Singer, Real Housewives of New York City costar, talked to Usmagazine.com about Bethenny Frankel’s recent pregnancy announcement.

“She’ll be a good mom. I think it will teach her about being more giving, more loving, and about opening up her heart,” she said.

As for Bethenny’s fiance, Jason Hoppy, she said, “[Bethenny and Jason] remind me a little bit of my husband, Mario, and I because I’m very independent, I speak my mind, I have my good sides and bad sides. My husband just loves me for me and gets amused by everything about me. I think the same thing [is true] with Jason and Bethenny. Jason’s lovely.”

Andy Richter talks about his “funny household”

In an interview with Babble, The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien announcer Andy Richter spoke about his family (including kids William Oscar, 8 1/2 and Mercy Josephine, 4) and how they make each other laugh.

He said, “All you have to do to make them laugh is throw pee and poop into the conversation or make fart noises. They love that. When my son started to get to the age of liking jokes, every one we would make involved pee or poop or farting. We thought, ‘Oh my God, we’ve raised a frat-house monster.’ Then we took a trip to preschool: that’s what makes all of them laugh. It’s universally funny.”

Of his daughter, Andy said, “She’s discovered early on that you’re going to catch a lot less hell from adults if you make them laugh while they’re mad at you. That’s a pretty good skill at age four. And frankly it’s terrifying. We have a pretty funny household.”

With a dad like Andy, how could they not be funny?

Minnie Driver wants more kids

Minnie Driver is definitely decided as to whether or not she wants more kids.

“Hell yeah,” she told OK! magazine. “I want more. I gotta work this year, and then I really want to have more kids.”

She is not daunted by the first year with her son Henry Story, 13 1/2 months, though she admits, “Making these really important choices on extraordinarily little amounts of sleep is the most challenging part. Protecting your newborn baby, being able to feed them, being able to feed yourself, being able to keep the clothes clean, being able to keep the place clean … it’s really challenging when you’re sleeping for maybe two-hour increments and then waking up and breastfeeding. Well, I was.”

However difficult, she called the experience, “amazing.”

She seems so happy to be a mom!

Jenna Elfman sails into her second trimester

Making it past her first trimester is a major milestone for Jenna Elfman, who is pregnant with her second child.

She tells E! ““I was massively tired and had nausea and I didn’t have any of that during my first pregnancy,” she says.

She continued, “I was filming the show with insomnia and nausea and then going home to a two-year-old who’s very active.”

Luckily, the second trimester has been much better so far. “I’m past the first three months now and I feel like my head is screwed on better,” she said.

Meanwhile, little Story Elias is getting ready to be a big brother!

Jenna said of her son, “He gives my tummy a kiss and gives it a bottle and puts the blankie over my tummy and goes, ‘Baby, night-night.’”

How sweet is that?

Madonna heads to Malawi to meet Mercy’s father

Set for her trip to Malawi, where she is establishing a $15 million dollar school, Madonna has other plans while she is visiting the African home of her daughter Mercy James: she is going to meet her daughter’s biological father.

A source close to Madonna told Usmagazine.com that she will meet James Kambewa, 24, who works odd jobs and serves as a night guard because, “Madonna wants to meet Mr. Kambewa because she does not want to deny Mercy her background. Madonna wants to assure Mr. Kambewa that Mercy will not be delinked from her roots.”

However, Mercy’s uncle Peter Baneti told Usmagazine.com, that they don’t approve of the meeting. “We do not recognize Kambewa as Mercy’s father. He just came out of the woodwork to claim paternity while he was not there when my sister was pregnant.”
