Congratulations to the Kidman-Urbans

I don't know if you've heard but Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have pulled a fast one on the tabloids. They managed to keep their plans for a second child together hidden until a month after the child was even born ! That's a rare shell game in today's 24/7 news and infotainment cycle. TMZ has the report including this amusing graphic below...

Tthe surrogacy was here in the States since the couple is even more closely watched in Australia where there's less competition for Globally Recognizable Celebrity Among Us.

Baby Faith Margaret, younger sister to Sunday Rose (pictured left when she was just a wee thing -- she's now 2), is an awards season baby. She was born on December 28th the day after the Oscar ballots went out (and we learned Natalie Portman was pregnant) and her superstar parents finally told the media only after walking the red carpet at the Globes nearly a month later. Talk about keeping your private life private whilst in public.

Congratulations to the growing family. We hope Kidman is grabbing her 3rd Oscar nomination next Tuesday, but even if she's snubbed -- and it looks like a volatile field (take the BAFTA poll) -- it's a happy time at home.

Aw, I had no idea. I love their names. Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret. Stunning. :P

And she explained Sunday's name on The View and I was like 'Aww :').'

I was disappointed that Kidman didn't take home the Golden Globe but as a longtime fan I can't help but not really care after hearing about this. This is the happiest she's been in years and with a new baby that she doesn't have to keep secret anymore the family must be on Cloud 9. Congrats to them!

Hey this is actress related - Wasn't Sandra Bullock eligible this year for a BAFTA nom. after being deemed ineligible last year because the film opened too late? Looks like they forgot about her anyway. (Or maybe I have my facts wrong?)

Has anyone else beside me noticed that there's a bit of a baby boom amongst oscar winners and nominees lately? In fact, virtually all the ladies of 'Nine' are having kids - Marion Cotillard, Penelope Cruz, and Kate Hudson are all currently preggers. And Nicole Kidman just had her latest via surrogracy. Heck, if Sophia Loren and Judy Dench weren't so mature in years, they might take a crack at having more bebes.

In addition to the lovely ladies of nine, there's Natalie Portman and Jennifer Connelly, both pregnant as well. Hmm... must be something in the water in Hollywood.

No Monday? Was hoping for a sister (or brother) to follow up Sunday, then perhaps a pet called Happy Days to roll out the lyric.

But seriously, mazal tov to the Kidman-Urbans on their bundle of joy.

It’s very uncomfortable to know she lives in a Red State. Although I believe she’s not a snob; I have to believe she’s experiencing a Fur-style fascination with the place.

easy to keep the secret when you're not lugging around the baby bum yourself
