Kidman gives birth Monday to girl named Sunday

NASHVILLE, Tenn.—Nicole Kidman gave birth Monday to a baby girl named Sunday.

In a statement e-mailed to The Associated Press, Paul Freundlich, a publicist for her husband, Keith Urban, said: "Nicole and Keith Urban are delighted to announce that Nicole Kidman gave birth to a baby girl on Monday morning, July 7, 2008, in the United States. Sunday Rose Kidman Urban weighed 6 pounds, 7 1/2 ounces. Husband Keith was by Nicole's side and mother and baby are very well."

Urban posted a message on his Web Site that said: "Earlier this morning Nic gave birth to our beautiful baby girl, Sunday Rose Kidman Urban. We want to thank everybody that has kept us in their thoughts and prayers. We feel very blessed and grateful that we can share this joy with all of you today."

The baby is the first for Kidman and Urban, who married in June 2006. She has two children, Isabella and Connor, from her marriage to Tom Cruise. Kidman recently told Vanity Fair that she had a miscarriage early on in her relationship with Cruise, leading them to adopt.

Cruise filed for divorce in February 2001 after 10 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. The divorce was finalized later that year.

Kidman, 41, won an Oscar for her role in the 2002 film "The Hours."

During a concert Saturday in Nashville, Urban said, "I'm going to dedicate a song to my very, very, very, very, very pregnant wife" before singing his hit, "Better Half."

Urban, 40, won a Grammy in 2006 for best male country vocal.

The couple, who were both raised in Australia, have a home in Nashville.

In a recent radio interview in Nashville, Kidman revealed that Urban had been getting hands-on in preparation for the birth by attending Lamaze lessons, saying, "He doesn't know the name (of the classes), but he has been very good at it!"

I love how every time a celebrity has a baby, it's considered "news".....

Well, as I mentioned at BSGClub.com, celebrities always seem to come up with odd names for their babies. Apple Paltrow, anyone?

Heh, I know what you mean, but this one grabbed my interest, especially because of her former marriage to Tommy-boy.

Remember why they adopted their kids? Because they couldn't conceive one of their own.

Now she has a kid with Keith Urban and Tommy has 1 (2?) with whatsername.

Huh?

Okay, we know she's fertile because we spent the last few months obviously pregnant.

So if she couldn't conceive with Tommy...

Where the heck did his current family come from?

:LOL:

Who cares?

Someone make sure that the kids don't turn into zombies like the parents are and I'll be happy.
