Come on down, baby number-three!

Per Us Weekly, Lydia McLaughlin gave birth to her third child yesterday, a son named Roman Scott McLaughlin who was born in Orange County at 9:05 a.m.

He weighed in at 7 pounds, 3 ounces and measured 19 inches in length.

"Baby Roman has captured our hearts and just like that our lives are forever changed," McLaughlin tells the tabloid. "We are so grateful to now be a family of five."

The former The Real Housewives of Orange County cast member and husband Doug are also parents to Stirling, 5, and Maverick, 3.

McLaughlin departed The Real Housewives of Orange County after just one season, opting to not remain with the Bravo series for season nine, telling Us Weekly of her decision:

"It's bittersweet. I compare it to breaking up with a boyfriend you know you're not going to end up with -- it's hard, but overall you know you're doing the right thing."

We send our very best wishes to Lydia, Doug and the entire (newly-expanded!) McLaughlin family!

Celebrity Baby Photos: So Adorable!

Does it get any more adorable? Melissa Rycroft gives us our first look here of new son Beckett. He's being held by sister Ava.

Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christensen have welcomed their first child together, and their baby daughter has been given a name fit for a Disney princess ...

Briar Rose!

The name is an obvious homage to Sleeping Beauty, as it was the alias given to the lovely Princess Aurora to protect her from Maleficent's evil curse.

Bilson and Christensen, 33, "are so excited," an insider says, and it sounds like their families and friends are too. "Everyone is beyond thrilled for them."

The O.C. alum was the guest of honor at a baby shower on August 31, featuring family, former classmates, and stars like Jamie King and Natalie Portman.

Instead of gifts, attendees brought a birth bead to be made into a necklace for her "use the beads for strength during labor," a source said at the time.

Bilson and Christensen first met on set of the 2008 film Jumper and got engaged in December 2008. They quietly called off their engagement in 2010.

Reconciling three months later, the two have been together and inseparable ever since, and enjoyed a month-long babymoon in Barbados in June.

Congratulations to the new parents!

Celebrities Who Welcomed Babies in 2014

1. Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher just became parents for the first time! She gave birth to a baby girl!! Congratulations!!

Christina Aguilera stepped out Sunday night for a red carpet event, and with the aid of a gorgeous red gown, showed off her amazing post-baby body.

Check out the pop star with fiance Matt Rutler at the Breakthrough Prize Awards at Hangar One, a former NASA airship shelter, in Mountain View, Calif.:

The singer welcomed daughter Summer Rain just under three months ago, and clearly her efforts to shed the baby weight have yielded some impressive results.

Her figure hugging, full length gown was as bold and eye-catching as The Voice coach herself, especially with her blonde curls and matching red lips.

Aguilera, who will return for The Voice Season 8, been working on new material in the studio, and took to the stage for a rousing rendition of her 2002 hit "Beautiful."

She was one of the stars the show, which honors pioneers in math and science and was attended by the likes of Kate Beckinsale and Cameron Diaz.

How did she achieve that kind of transformation?

"Christina has hired a trainer and is really dedicated to getting thin," one source said. "She lost 46 pounds from changing her diet and working with a personal chef."

Seems like it's paying off, and then some ...

Miranda Lambert's recent weight loss has seen quite the before and after transformation.

How does she compare to these other slimmed-down celebrities? That's for you to decide, but Christina has proven that she can look very sexy at any weight.

Talk about a woman who can do no wrong.

Christina also has a son Max, 6, from her marriage to Jordan Bratman. She and Matt Rutler have been together since 2011, and got engaged earlier this year.

All the best to the new parents!

Natalie Nunn has taken a break from hair-pulling, cat-fighting and all the other craziness we witness when we watch Bad Girls Club online to make an important announcement:

She's pregnant!

“Jacob and I couldn’t be happier,” Nunn tells the new issue of Life & Style, in which she posted with husband Jacob Payne and her slowly-evolving baby bump.

Nunn may have made a name and a reputation for herself on the aforementioned Oxygen reality series, but she tells the tabloid that she's now a changed woman.

She plans to raise her child in a drama-free household.

“My life has completely changed since Bad Girls Club," Nunn tells Life & Style. "I found the most perfect, supportive, handsome husband, and now a soon-to-be mini-me or mini-Jacob!"

The volatile star says she's three months along and is therefore due some time in the spring of 2015. We're so happy for her!

Celebrities Who Are Expecting a Baby in 2015

1. Kate Middleton

Another royal baby is on the way! Kate Middleton and Prince William will welcome it into the world in April 2015.

Casey Wilson is pregnant with her first child!

Sources have confirmed to Us Weekly that the hilarious actress and husband David Caspe will welcome a child into the world at some point in 2015.

The awesome couple got married seven months ago, paying homage to both their big day and the wedding of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West (which took place on the same weekend) via a memorable Instagram photo:

We can only hope the impending baby shares Wilson’s sense of humor, as the former Saturday Night Live star and Happy Endings actress told Us Weekly soon after tying the knot:

"David and I couldn't have been more excited to celebrate our special day with all of our closest friends and family. Oprah, sadly, was a no show. (Probably because we've never met. Maybe next time?)"

Wilson and Caspe met while working on ABC's Happy Endings in 2011 and got engaged two years later.

She now stars on Marry Me, a sitcom on NBC created by... Caspe!

It's pretty funny. You should go watch Marry Me online via TV Fanatic while you send this twosome your best wishes.

Celebrities Who Are Expecting a Baby in 2015

1. Kate Middleton

Another royal baby is on the way! Kate Middleton and Prince William will welcome it into the world in April 2015.

The pregnant Kate Middleton is expecting a baby girl, according to friends and other sources who somehow claim to "confirm" this as of this week!

Naturally, when it comes to breaking royal family scoop, Life & Style Magazine is the #1 most trusted source around. So who are we to argue with this?

The publication, citing alleged friends, claims that the 32-year-olds' unborn baby’s gender was revealed to them a few weeks ago, at a doctor's appointment.

The news that Prince George will be having a little sister is undoubtedly exciting. Maybe even enough to end Kate Middleton and Prince William fighting.

One can only hope, right? For the family's sake?

Kate Middleton’s due date for her daughter is reportedly in April, which means we still have a while to go here, and it casts doubt on this entire story:

If she's not even at the midway point of her pregnancy, it would be hard (albeit not impossible) to determine the gender of the impending arrival.

If they even want to know it.

They reportedly didn't find out with George, and while they could obviously reverse course this time, it's the best way to keep the news from leaking.

How can anyone "confirm" something that no one even knows? Of course, the alleged sources have a 50-50 chance of being right, so we'll find out.

Until then, let the royal baby name rumors commence, which is undoubtedly more fun to speculate about if she is thinking about girl baby names.

Diana? Camilla? Elizabeth? So many options.

Prince George: A Young Life in Photos

1. Prince George and Parents

Prince George, now one year old, is fascinated by butterflies in this adorable new photo released by the royal family. Parents Kate and William look on proudly.

Snooki threw her longtime best friend JWoww a surprise baby shower earlier this year, and the cake was revealed this week on MTV's Snooki & JWoww.

There are no words to describe how awesome slash terrible it is.

Seriously, just let this sink in and see how it makes you feel ...

We're sorry if chocolate sprinkles have been forever ruined for you after seeing this creation, one of the most shocking things we've seen on TV in awhile.

And we watch TV online a lot, people.

“It’s like push cake, like get ready to push the baby out of your vag!” Snooki quipped to the then-preggers JWoww, proceeding to explain the cake in detail.

“The cherries resemble the placenta and the blood when the baby comes out,” Snooki said. “And then add the [chocolate] sprinkles for little pubes."

"Then some sprinkles on the butt hole," she said, in the interest of keeping this cake as realistic as possible, "because I don’t know if her butt’s hairy.”

Then, of course, there's the baby.

“Ewwwww!” JWoww exclaimed.

It tasted pretty good, though.

“Not bad,” she admitted.

Later, JWoww turned to her pal and said, “You put a hemorrhoid on it!" Snooki responded simply, “That’s ‘cause you have one!” Good to know, ladies.

How does it compare to other baby shower cakes you have to see to believe? Amazingly, this is far from the first of its kind. Check out this cringe-worthy gallery:

29 Horrifying Baby Shower Cakes

1. This is how it works

You can't argue with the logic here.

JWoww and Roger Mathews welcomed daughter Meilani back in July, and shortly after, Snooki gave birth to daughter Giovanna, her second child, in September.

Ah, how times change.

It seems like only yesterday they were flashing vadge and getting it in left and right on Jersey Shore. Now their lady parts are being put to use so differently.

They grow up so fast.

Ever since the Kim Kardashian Paper Magazine cover has hit the Internet, its nude subject has been hit with the same criticism over and over:

You're a mother! How could you?!? 

We'll let our readers debate whether or not it's appropriate for a parent to pose completely naked for the world to see, but here's the good news: it appears as if little North West has not yet seen the Kim Kardashian nude images in question.

We can't imagine she'd be smiling so broadly if she had...

Kim appaarently took the toddler to the zoo today with her aunt, Kourtney Kardashian, writing as a caption to this cute picture:

"Zoo day!!!! my little lady loves animals so much!!!!"

Say what you want about Kim Kardashian and Kanye West (seriously... please. Go right ahead and say what you want.), but you can't deny that they've created an adorable child.

Some insiders claim Kim actually posed naked for this issue of Paper because she's about to get pregnant again and wanted to prove to the universe first that she's lost all her previous baby weight.

Sounds like something she would do, doesn't it?

We can't wait to see the smile on Nori's face one day when she meets her brother or sister!

22 Totally Adorable North West Photos

1. Morning, Kim and Nori!

It's Kim Kardashian and daughter Nori! The former posted this photo online with a simple caption: Good morning.

Brace yourself: Tila Tequila is now someone's mother. We'll give you a moment to question the meaning of existence.

Yes, we knew Tila was pregnant, because she's documented pretty much every second of the last nine months. 

We may have even witnessed the conception in the form of the Tila Tequila sex tape, but that doesn't make the notion of this woman raising a child any less mind-blowing. 

Fortunately, in an encouraging sign for the future, Ms. Tequila opted not to pass her boozy surname onto her daughter, and the girl will instead be known as Isabella Monroe Nguyen.

(Yes, we know you're shocked that Tila is one of those women who fancies herself some sort of Marilyn Monroe figure.)

We're not surprised that Tila chose to give her daughter her own (actual) last name, because as far as anyone can tell, she has no idea who the father is.

It was initially believed to be a man named Thomas Paxton Whitaker, but after an ugly breakup, Tila now denies that he's the father.

Of course, this is the same woman who - in the recent past - has faked a suicide attempt, faked a pregnancy, and faked a miscarriage, so we think it's safe to say her relationship with the truth is shaky at best, and there's a good chance Whitaker is the father.

Whatever the case, we hope Tila has some sort of decent support network in place, because the idea of this woman raising a kid on her own is too terrifying to contemplate. 

But anyway, congrats!

Tila Tequila is ready to take it. She lies back here in a still image from her second sex tape.

Reaction continues to pour in regarding the Kim Kardashian nude spread in Paper magazine, with most talk centering around the same question:

Kim is someone's mother. How could she flaunt her naked body in such a way?!?

Kardashian has responded that she posed in her birthday suit as a gift to herself, and now she's giving fans a look at herself as a mother.

In the first of two Intagram photos posted yesterday, Kardashian and daughter North West are both dressed in black and both wearing serious expressions.

"What we're like in front of the paparazzi..." Kim humorously captioned the snapshot.

In the second picture,the duo’s faces have transformed to show gleeful, wide-mouthed giggles, with Kim writing as an accompanying message this time around:

“What we're like at home...."

Okay, you got us, Kim. These are actually pretty darn adorable.

In August of this year, Kardashian told Matt Lauer that her child had learned to work the cameras just like her dad, Kanye West.

She's had little choice, considering how often the family is flanked by the paparazzi.

"Every time there is a camera out and paparazzi, she does this either mean, angry Kanye face or a pose," Kim said, laughing. "She'll be cracking up and then the second the camera comes on she [makes the pose.]”

And, as we know well, Kanye West is not a fan of the paparazzi.

Some celebrities were born and bred to be stars, most likely by other stars.

Most of the time, however, they were unknowns during their formative years, a far cry from the future TV stars, movie greats, musical icons and models we know.

The heart throbs of today were the nerds of yesterday, the style mavens as awkward as any other 'tweens, and the Kardashians anonymously tolerable.

Check out the gallery below for so many examples of this ...

47 Celebrities When They Were Cute Kids

1. Jonah Hill as a Kid

We can totally see Jonah Hill as a kid looking like Jonah Hill actually looked as a kid.

If you've ever wondered what your favorite celebrities (or the Kardashians even) looked like long before they dominated your Facebook feed, wonder no longer.

We've answered that question dozens of times right here!

Some of them looked a lot like their adult selves from a very early age, while Father Time has, shall we say, been kinder to some more than others.

All of them, though, were pretty darn precious as you'll see.

Yes, this gallery makes even Justin Bieber look semi-cute.

Kourtney Kardashian may or may not take part in a double wedding with Khloe Kardashian at some point in the near future.

But the reality star will definitely become a mother for the third time before then.

The 35-year old covers the new issue of Fit Pregnancy and tells the magazine that she and Scott Disick are in for a special Christmas gift this year.

Joking that she's gonna keep her doctor "handcuffed" to her for the holidays, Kourtney reveals that her third child is due toward the end of December.

"With Mason, I was due on December 24 and my mom said, 'No, not on the night of my Christmas Eve party!'" Kourtney says. "But he was born 10 days early, so we'll see what happens this time."

We know Kourtney was kidding about her mom's response to Mason's due date... but not entirely, we bet.

Kourtney and Scott’s first bundle of joy was born on December 14, 2009, while their 2-year-old daughter, Penelope, came into the world on July 8, 2012.

How will Kardashian handle THREE kids at home? She isn't sure. But she doesn't want help trying.

"I love doing everything myself at the beginning," the star tells the publication. "I'm not getting a baby nurse. I take two months off and no one is allowed to bother me or talk to me about anything work-related - or maybe three months this time."

Fortunately, you can always watch Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons online, folks, even if Kourtney takes time off from filming it.

"I love being pregnant in general," Kourtney concludes. "This time I'm more tired than I was the other times. I think it's because I'm always running around and working on different things. But I feel comfortable with how I look and feel.

"I find a pregnant body to be beautiful and an incredible reminder of what a woman's body is made to do."

14 First World Problems From Which the Kardashians Suffer

1. Dining with Peasants

Scott Disick does not like interacting with commoners. Please don't make him do so.

Derick Dillard and Jill Duggar Dillard of TLC's 19 Kids & Counting fame shared the first photo of their baby son ahead of his anticipated March arrival.

Yes, they posted an adorable ultrasound picture of #BabyDilly!

"I am keeping his ultrasound pictures safe ... it is so exciting to look at this picture," Jill tells People, adding that the little one "is moving and kicking now."

"It's crazy to realize I have this wonderful baby boy inside me."

Jill and Derick wed June 21, and just a few weeks later revealed her pregnancy. They saved their first kiss for the altar, and quickly made up for lost time.

The couple, ages 23 (her) and 25 (him), have set up a Duggar-Dillard baby registry and are taking childbirth classes to prepare for a natural home birth.

"I am learning a lot about birth," says Derick. "We are doing our homework together, and I keep reading new things, the medical aspects are fascinating to me."

"I'm a Boy Scout. Being prepared is my motto," he adds of staying ready for anything for his now-22-weeks pregnant wife. "I'm going to be prepared."

Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard say they are working together to practice relaxation techniques together and write out their birth plan as a united front.

"We are really on the same page," says the midwife by trade. "The more Derick learns about birth, the more he feels that natural childbirth makes sense."

"Derick's been great at helping me with relaxation, and really supportive. He's an amazing husband, he'll be awesome when our baby is born. He already is."

Jill Duggar & Derick Dillard Photos: True Love Timeline

1. Their First Meeting (Sort Of)!

The Arkansas natives grew up within 45 minutes of each other, but didn't meet until late 2011. Jill recalled when Derick stopped by while caroling with a church group, and not long after, "Derick contacted my dad and asked if he would be a prayer partner during his two-year term in Nepal."

Until that day arrives next spring, the couple's routine includes singing "Jesus Loves Me" each night to the baby and writing in a journal for their son.

"Right now, we're just looking forward to him coming and preparing with classes," Jill says. "After the holidays, then we'll get started on the nursery."

We can't wait for her next updates and baby bump pics. In the meantime, watch 19 Kids and Counting online and relive their road to the altar via TLC!

Even the biggest Kim Kardashian critic has to hope that North West does not end up like Lindsay Lohan.

No one would ever wish that on his or her worst enemy.

But Nori is making like a character in Lohan's most memorable film in the following Instagram photo, which was posted over the weekend by Khloe Kardashian and which features her niece rocking some serious sunglasses.

"Stunna shades #YouCantSitWithUs," Khloe captioned the absurdly cute photo, referencing a line from Mean Girls with her hashtag.

Khloe and other family members have been taking care of North over the past few days because Kim Kardashian is spending time with friends in Dubai.

"She's a major fashionista. That stresses me out, the fact that I'm nervous to buy my one-year-old niece something,” Khloe joked to E! earlier this year. 

Well, she didn't really joke about it. Note Nori's Lorraine Schwartz earrings in the image above.

In case you were unaware of why so many people were predicting the apocalypse on Twitter last week - Tila Tequila welcomed a baby girl.

At first, we weren't sure how to feel about the news.

A new life is always something to celebrate, but at the same time, Tila Tequila is a Hitler-loving psychopath who probably shouldn't be trusted to take care of a house plant.

Needless to say, we have some concerns that are unlikely to go away anytime soon. However, we can't help but feel a little bit better about the situation thanks to some pics Tila uploaded to her website today.

Check out the semi-NSFW photos after the jump:

Yes, Tila's got a beautiful baby, she seems to be a very proud mom, and she's still not shying away from showing her boobs. All good things, in our book.

"I am so lucky to wake up seeing, and kissing on this beautiful little face of hers every single day!" Tila wrote on her blog. "The world could end right now, and as long as I have her held to my chest and hear her little heart beating, nothing else matters!"

Cute stuff. Of course, we could do without all the "world ending" talk, but that's Tila for you.

Tila pregnancy photos were pretty much a daily thing during the past nine months, so we imagine every step of little Isabella's development will be well-documented, and we're totally okay with that.

And if pics of Tila's boobs keep making their way online, we're fine with that too. Girl's gotta make a living somehow!

Peek a Boo! North West, we see you!

Early on Monday, Khloe Kardashian posted one of the cutest photos to date of her niece, giving Instagram followers a look at Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s daughter playing an intense edition of a classic childhood game.

"Playing peek a boo with my boo," aunt Khloe penned as a caption to the adorable picture.

This is the second time in just a few days that a cute snapshot of little Nori has made its way around the Internet.

Soon after Thanksgiving, North's mom took to her own Instagram account an posted a fancy photo of North, referring to the tyke as her "best friend" and saying she's so thankful for her child.

Kim really has to stop doing such things.

Between acting like a loving mother and posing with American troops overseas, Kim Kardashian is making it harder and harder for us to make fun of her.

We mean, come on! Just look at all these precious North West photographs. What negative things could we possibly say when faced with such cute images?

The Duggar family might be stuck on 19 Kids and Counting, but Jim Bob and Michelle's grandchild tally is on the rise, and fast: Anna Duggar is pregnant!

Anna, the wife of the eldest son of the enormous Duggar family, Josh Duggar, is expecting the couple's fourth child, she announced Tuesday night on Twitter.

"We are so excited to announce... we're pregnant! #4andCounting #BlessingfromTheLord @joshduggar #19Kids," wrote the pregnant, 26-year-old Anna.

Josh Duggar, also 26, married Anna back in September 2008 and quickly down to business mirroring the massive brood led by his parents Jim Bob and Michelle.

While the first-born and his 18 siblings all have names that begin with the letter "J," he branched out slightly ... using the letter "M" for his own growing family.

The happy couple welcomed their first child, daughter Mackynzie, in October 2009, going on to introduce sons Michael in June 2011 and Marcus in June 2013.

Anna and Josh have yet to announce whether their latest addition will be a Melissa or Mark, but it's already been narrowed down to those two apparently.

The religious pair also teased the exciting news in a clip from TLC, with Josh saying, "this time of the year, there's so many things we're thankful for."

Referencing Jill Duggar and Jessa Duggar tying the knot, he said, "From my sisters getting proposed to and married, to all the fans who are watching at home."

Anna then chimed in, spilling the beans about baby #4 being on board, "One of the things we're really thankful for this season, is that we're expecting!"

"I'm having a lot of morning sickness so it's difficult, but it's good because I know good things are happening," Anna continued, echoing a familiar refrain.

"After Ben and Jessa's wedding, we were still visiting with the family in Arkansas, and that was really exciting to get to share with the family the exciting news."

SO Many Duggars

1. A Duggar Family Pic

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar are still working on that 20th kid.

Jill Duggar is also pregnant, and expecting her first child early next year.

That means at least five grandkids for Jim Bob and Michelle by the end of 2015, and we would not rule out a sixth courtesy of Jessa and Ben Seewald.

If you watch 19 Kids and Counting online, you know Anna's fourth pregnancy was teased - and ultimately didn't happen - on a pair of recent episodes.

They didn't stop trying after that, clearly. We would expect nothing less.

We would also expect this news to be slightly better received than Josh's politically-charged Thanksgiving video, where he gave thanks for conservative causes.

Congratulations to the whole family on the impending arrival(s)!

The 10 most popular baby girl names for the year 2014 have been revealed, and it's a strikingly familiar list compared to the previous couple of years.

The single most popular baby girl name is, for the FIFTH straight year?

10 Most Popular Girl Names of 2014

1. Sophia

Sophia is the #1 baby girl name chosen for girls born in 2014. Are you surprised?

Sophia!

Yes, that classic name has now topped its respective gender in the U.S. in 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. So expect a lot more famous Sophias in 15-20 years!

The second and third most popular girl names also remain unchanged from last year, meaning there was zero movement in the first, second and third options.

What were they? And what was the lone newcomer to the Top 10?

We will tell you that only the #10 name is new among the most popular, and that it replaces Chloe, which had a good run but has fallen out of the elite list.

It's okay, Chloes of America. You're still cute!

Scroll through the gallery above and see the names most commonly chosen for baby girls this year, and tell us which of them is your favorite in the comments.

The most popular baby boy names of 2014 have been revealed, and you may find yourself surprised by some - or all - of the year's top monikers.

10 Most Popular Boy Names of 2014

10. Logan

Logan made its way into the top ten for the first time. Perhaps parents are hoping the offspring will develop into mutant tough guys?

While this year's list of most popular baby girl names remains largely unchanged from last year, there are some major shake-ups in the boy's department.

Daniel, Jaden, Alexander, Michael, and William made the 2013 list, but are nowhere to be found in this year's top ten.

That's right - for the first time in a long time, Michael is not one of the most common names for the young dudes of America. Perhaps the influence of the two MJs (Jordan and Jackson) is finally beginning to wane.

Then again, the number one name seems to suggest otherwise.

Like we said, unless you work in a maternity ward, you'd be hard-pressed to guess the names new parents gravitated toward in 2014.

As usual, there seems to be a wide variety of influences at work here, from the lads of One Direction to the Bible to...the X-Men franchise?

We may never know for sure what prompted this year's new moms and dads to choose their offspring's handles, but we can safely assume that the Old Testament and the King of Pop are as popular as ever.

Actor/writer/director and all-around media juggernaut Tyler Perry has welcomed his first child - a son named Aman Tyler Perry.

It is the first child for both Perry and his longtime on, off girlfriend Gelila Bekele.

The notoriously secretive couple kept news of Gelila's pregnancy a secret for most of her term, and it was only in September that the world learned Bekele was pregnant with Perry's child.

That revelation was accompanied by news that Perry and Bekele were planning to get married shortly after she gave birth.

That rumor made sense, given Perry's traditional Christian beliefs, but there's also plenty of reason to think these two will not be headed for the altar any time soon:

Sources have suggested that Perry and Bekele aren't even dating any longer, but have remained close friends and intend to co-parent amicably.

Some have even speculated that Perry's bleak 2013 film Temptation was inspired by his tumultuous relationship with Bekele.

In any event, Perry's career has never been hotter - his Madea character is more popular than ever, and there's even been Oscar buzz surrounding his performance in Gone Girl.

But while 2014 may have been Perry's biggest year ever at the box office, surely he'll best remember it as the year little Aman came into the world. Congrats to Perry and Gelila!
