Jamie Lynn Spears Shows Off Precious Pic of Newborn Baby
Back in April, Jamie Lynn Spears welcomed her new baby girl! The sweet little newborn’s name is Ivey Joan.
Now, Jamie Lynn has shared a photo from a family outing — including precious baby Ivey.
The best part is that everyone is dressed up in matching outfits! Take a look.
Do you follow sports much?
Jamie Lynn and her family sure do. More than that — Maddie plays.
The photo that you’re about to see isn’t the first time that we’ve seen them all dressed up in sports uniforms on a family outing.
But it is the first time that the adorable Ivey Joan has gotten to take part in that family tradition.
The results are absolutely adorable.
Jamie Lynn very succinctly captioned this photo:
“My #1’s.”
Pictured are her husband, Jamie Watson, her daughter, Maddie Aldridge, and her sweet little baby, Ivey Joan.
They’re all dressed up in team swag for a team called the Louisiana Swarms.
(Yes, the mascot for it looks intensely racist, but we’d rather take that up for whoever’s responsible for it than with the fans)
The family went to cheer on Maddie as she played baseball.
In this gif, made from a video that Jamie Lynn shared, Maddie successfully strikes the ball with the bat and then runs, as one is supposed to do in baseball.
Not only does she make it to first base but, as you can see, she goes to second base and then third base, capitalizing on the opposing team’s inability to halt her progress.
Though she plays it safe at the end rather than trying to run for home plate and complete the rhombus, that is a tremendous amount of progress to make so quickly.
Proud mom Jamie Lynn captioned the clip:
“Maddie turned her single into a triple by running hard on the other team’s error.”
This family deserves its happiness.
Back in February, Jamie Lynn marked the anniversary of her daughter’s seemingly miraculous recovery.
A year earlier, in February of 2017, Maddie was injured in an ATV accident.
The ATV flipped over, trapping her beneath it in a pond. Maddie was unable to breathe for an alarming amount of time.
But children are notably resilient to brain trauma that would prove fatal or life-altering to adults.
Maddie was able to spring back, even participating in Valentine’s Day with her classmates. It was adorable … and such a relief.
Everyone is so pleased that Maddie recovered and is such a success story.
(Here, for the record, Jamie Lynn is holding a friend’s newborn, born only six weeks after Ivey Joan)
Can we talk about Jamie Lynn’s post-baby body, by the way?
We know that she’s young and hot — her big sister is Britney Freaking Spears, after all.
But pregnancy can radically transform a person’s body in ways that can linger for months or years after childbirth.
As much as we are impressed by Maddie’s athleticism and as much as we adore Ivey Joan, we think that Jamie Lynn deserves kudos for bouncing back the way that she has.

Jessica Alba Gives Birth! Look at These Gorgeous Newborn Photos!
Forget celebrating the new year with a glass of champagne and a kiss.
Jessica Alba celebrated the flipping of the calendar with… a new baby!
The actress and long-time husband Cash Warren added to their gorgeous family on Monday night, welcoming child number-three to close out 2017 in the most miraculous way possible.
Wrote Alba on Instagram, along with the following picture of her newborn:
“Hayes Alba Warren 12/31/17 Best gift to ring in the New Year!! Cash and I feel so blessed. Haven and Honor are already obsessed with their new baby bro.”
What a precious image, don’t you think?
Take a close, long, sentimental look at it here:
Indeed, as Alba mentions above, the stars are already parents to daughters Honor, 9, and Haven, 6, and had always planned on giving them a brother or a sister.
“It was always in the cards for them to have a third child,” an insider previously told E! News. “It was definitely part of the plan and they just wanted to wait a few years for the right time.”
Alba announced her pregnancy in July.
“@cash_warren and I are officially going to be outnumbered #babyonboard #herewegoagain #blessed,” Alba penned as a caption at the time alongside a photo of her and her two kids.
Warren, meanwhile, also shared a precious picture on Instagram and wrote right next to it:
Hayes Alba Warren: You sure know how to ring in the new year!” he captioned the photo. “You showed up a few days early but we couldn’t be any happier.
Your Mamma is the strongest woman I know … you’re so lucky to have her by your side. You have two amazing sisters who already adore you and I know you’ll be thankful to have them guide the way.
On your first day of life, I promise to love you, to cherish you, and to provide you with a sandbox full of dreams to explore.
Welcome to the family my sweet baby Hayes!
Alba, who runs The Honest Company and has basically retired from acting, often shared photos of her baby bump on social media over the past few months.
She very openly embraced her curves and the bun growing in her oven.
“Love being preggers w my baby boo #BossLady @jkroogr,” the star wrote at one point.
Adds the aforementioned source to E! News:
“Jessica has been working her entire pregnancy and will still play a role when the baby is born.
“Her company means a lot to her but she is thankful that she has a great team to help her.”
We send her the very best.

Audrey Roloff Shares Intimate, Incredible Photo of Newborn Daughter
There’s only one word we can use to describe the following photograph:
WOW.
Audrey Roloff – who has always been incredibly open and honest with her fans and followers – has taken this openness and honesty to a new, admirable level via her latest Instagram picture.
Just about one month since she gave birth to her first child, a daughter named Ember Jean, the Little People, Big World star has taken supporters inside the delivery room.
She has posted an image that is as raw and as candid as it can get.
And she’s included with it a caption that expresses what she was thinking the first time she held her baby, along with how she feels about the man who helped bring this new person into the world.
First, though, here’s a look at the special snapshot.
When was the last time a celebrity shared anything as intimate as this with his or her fans?
“I seriously think this is one of the most beautiful photos we’ve ever taken,” wrote Audrey as a caption, adding:
“Not because we look good or the lighting is perfect, but because of the moment it represents. Holding our baby girl for the first time, while looking up into her daddy’s watery eyes… wow.
“Oh my heart.”
Seriously, what else is there to say?
Just a few things.
“I think I’ll be discovering the depths and significance of this moment for a long time,” Roloff continued.
“I’m so thankful my doula captured this for us to cherish! My goodness…
“I’ve fallen in love with Jeremy in a whole new way, and I’ve come to understand the Father’s love for us on a whole new level.”
Prior to posting this unique photo, Audrey sat with Jeremy for a TLC-sponsored video that officially introduced their daughter to the world.
In it, the couple said Ember is “active” and “rambunctious,” while Jeremy admitted they are “wiped out and totally tired,” yet the “joy we are going to get from her” is so much greater any sacrifice they stars are making.
And this is a sacrifice, as it is for all new parents.
Perhaps even more so for Audrey, who is suffering the effects of postpartum depression.
“The first 24 hours with Ember were bliss, but after that it was as if I went back into labor again,” Roloff admitted last week on Instagram, detailing how she’s had a lot of pain breastfeeding and how hard it has been adjusting to motherhood.
“I was well prepared for the pain and suffering that comes with childbirth, but I was not prepared for the pain and suffering that comes afterwards,” she wrote.
Honest as always, Audrey went on:
“I can’t believe I’m saying this, but the pain that I’ve experienced while breast feeding has been comparable to unmedicated labor contractions.
“Inevitably, all of this has left me feeling like I am failing my baby, frustrated, discouraged, and heart ached.”
Yes, it’s been tough.
But Audrey has the support of a loving husband and a strong belief in God to guide her along the way.
“Even though the tearful sleepless nights persist, so will I,” she wrote.
“I will continue to pour myself out in sacrificial love for this baby girl who makes every hurt worth enduring.”
We wish her the best.

Zach Roloff Cradles Newborn, Gushes Over Fatherhood
Simply put, it doesn"t get much more adorable than this.
On May 12, Tori Roloff and Zach Roloff welcomed their first child into the world.
His name is Jackson Kyle and we later learned that he does, indeed, carry the same gene as his famous father; despite measuring "normal" length at birth, he will grow up to be a Dwarf.
This will be a challenge, Jacob has openly admitted.
Speaking to People Magazine, the TLC star talked openly about his own difficulties as a child with this genetic disposition.
He was called names. He was chosen last for sports. There was no talk of him getting elected Homecoming King.
“I grew up with the name-calling,” Roloff said in a feature piece for the publication, adding:
"I look at my childhood and being a boy on the farm, it was a little tough because boys are very alpha-doggy and follow the pack.
"I was always chasing the back and way behind the pack. It was tough."
The result is that “you have to encourage a dwarf child a little more because it will take them five steps to do what others can do in two,” Roloff said a few weeks ago.
Now, about a month into fatherhood, Zach has talked once again about this life-changing experience.
In new footage for his vlog with Tori – aptly named “Z and T Party of Three” – he discussed the first few days at home with the baby.
“It felt super surreal and natural the first time I held baby Jackson,” says the Little People, Big World star below, going on in a bit more detail as follows:
“Infants, I always thought, were fragile and hard to hold, but with your own child, it’s super confident.”
It"s strange, but true. Only parents can really understand this.
As for Jackson being born with achondroplasia?
“Baby Jackson came in as [a little person] — just like me,” the new dad says, emphasizing:
“We’re super excited for it, though. We’ll hope to just give him a healthy, happy life and support him in every way.
"He can experience as much as the world as Tori and me have been able to and hopefully much more.”
And look how cute he is!
Check out the full video and see what else Zach and Tori have to say about their son right now:

Newborn Baby Holds Mom"s Failed IUD in Adorable Viral Photo
The story of a woman named Lucy Hellein and her brand new baby boy is going viral, and for good reason.
It’s fascinating, it doesn’t really make sense, there’s a precious little baby involved … there’s something for everyone!
Lucy just gave birth to her fourth child, a little boy she named Dexter, on April 27th.
Dexter was born in Fort Benning, Georgia, and weighed in at just over 9 pounds.
You may be thinking something along the lines of “Congrats or whatever, but why are we talking about this?”
And the answer, friends, is that we’re talking about this because of this photo of the baby, which has gone viral this week:
That’s precious little Dexter experiencing the world for the very first time. He’s also — and this is the real fun part — holding his mother’s IUD in his tiny baby hand.
Yep, Lucy had the Mirena IUD implanted last year as her chosen form of birth control.
Obviously it did not take.
A couple of weeks ago, Lucy wrote a post on Instagram, explaining what went down.
“Back in December, I found out I was already 18 weeks pregnant,” she wrote.
And to all the people wondering how she could have gone so long without knowing about the pregnancy, she said that she still had her IUD in.
“This boy was definitely a HUGE surprise,” she continued. “Apparently I’m part of the 1% who end up with a viable Mirena pregnancy.”
The baby’s due date was May 4th — she said that “even my OB said The Force is Strong with this one.”
However, she scheduled a C-section for April 27th “to find the mirena and close down the baby factory.”
Doctors found the IUD behind her placenta, then placed it in the baby’s hand because, come on, it’s a great photo.
In an interview, Lucy admits that she didn’t think the photo of her son would go viral, and that her doctor estimates she conceived about three weeks after getting the IUD.
A Planned Parenthood nurse has commented on the story as well, explaining that it’s “next to impossible” to get pregnant while on Mirena.
Specifically, she said “You have a better chance of winning the lotto.”
Well, better start buying up those tickets, ladies: as Lucy’s photo has been making the rounds on social media, several women have been sharing their own stories about their “Mirena fails.”
Congrats to the happy little family!

Mom Accused Of Killing Newborn Son After Leaving Him In Fridge
He was found three hours later by Bill Lewis, Blackwell"s father-in-law and the little boy"s grandfather.
According to WSOC, the coroner declared the cause of death "hypothermia with asphyxiation due to being in a refrigerator."
The incident occurred on February 27th, and it the investigation went on for six months before authorities arrested Blackwell, 27.
"This case was under heavy investigation," count coroner Terry Tinker told told the news station.
"Initially, we did not know why the body was so cold."
First responders performed CPR on the newborn,and were able to get a faint heartbeat, according to the incident report. They also did their best to bring up his body temperature, but doctors were unable to save him.
Tinker said that lengthy investigations like this do take as long as they do, since several people had to be interviewed.
"There were ten people at the home when the child died," Tinker confirmed.
"Investigators had to speak to everyone who was there."
Lewis is convinced his daughter-in-law is innocent.
"She didn"t do it. We don"t know who did," Lewis told reporters from his front porch.
"We just know she didn"t do it because she loves her kids too much."
Lewis spoke briefly to WSOC about his late grandson, getting emotional about their last time together.
"I held him for two and a half hours," Lewis recalled as he choked up.
"And I sang to him, and talked to him, and that was the only time I did."
The baby had a 2-year-old brother who is now in the custody of the Department of Social Services.
The family believes that Blackwell has a mental disability, but they also mentioned that a ten-year-old with autism may have put the child in the fridge.
Blackwell is being charged with felony homicide and child abuse, and could face up to twenty years in prison.

Toddler Kills Newborn Sibling; Former Reality Star Charged with Manslaughter
This is a truly horrible story.
Kathleen Steele, a 62-year old who appeared on a reality show titled “I’m Pregnant and 55 Years Old,” has been charged with aggravated manslaughter.
And the details of the case are simply incomprehensible.
According to Pinellas County Sheriff Bob Gualtieri, Steele’s six-year-old son beat his newborn sister to death while the kids and their three -year old brother were left alone.
The victim was 13 days old.
The incident took place on Monday afternoon after Steele left the three children inside her minivan while she visited a cellphone store in St. Petersburg.
“It was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen,” Gualtieri said during a press conference yesterday, per The Tampa Bay Times.
Officials have confirmed that Steele’s two youngest children were born through artificial insemination, using her husband’s frozen sperm.
The husband died of cancer in 2011 at age 66.
As a result, Steele has been raising the kids on her own.
The newspaper went on to write that the Florida native had taken the baby to a doctor Monday morning because she was not eating properly.
The pediatrician found nothing wrong with the little girl and later said there were no signs of bruising or trauma at the time of the visit.
A few hours later, Steele went into the cellphone store.
Investigators say the six-year old boy was trying to calm the crying baby, as the toddler actually used a doll to show police how he went about doing this.
In front of the authorities, he repeatedly slammed the newborn’s head into the minivan’s ceiling and showed how he bludgeoned her to death.
Steele then returned to the van… her son tried to tell her something was wrong with the newborn… she she ignored him and even made another stop before returning home.
She did not notice the baby’s injuries until then.
“The baby was beaten and traumatized,” the sheriff said. “There was gross swelling in her face. Her skull was cracked in numerous places.”
Authorities went on to say that Steele didn’t even call 911. Instead, she contacted a neighbor, who is a nurse.
This nurse performed CPR until paramedics arrived.
The six-year-old boy will not face criminal charges, although hopefully he will receive some psychiatric treatment.
“The mistake is with the adult Kathleen Steele, not a six-year-old boy,” Gualtieri said.
Steele was already being investigated by child protection investigators due to a minor brain bleed that the baby suffered following a fire.
She was scheduled to be evaluated by investigators on August 1, but she canceled and then rescheduled.
Her sons have been placed in foster care, according to the Florida paper, and she is being held on $ 100,000 bond.

Apryl Jones and Omarion: It"s Over! Despite Newborn!
For Omarion and Apryl Jones, parenthood is only just beginning.
But their romance has come to an end.
The singer confirmed Sunday that he is no longer dating the Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood star…
… despite the fact that Jones gave birth to his child a mere four months ago.
“This is the only public statement I will make about a private matter,” Omarion wrote on Instagram, adding:
“After this, I will not speak on or respond to any questions or comments on the matter.
“I thank everyone in advance for respecting my wishes to keep my family life private.”
Here’s a look at the social media message:
Omarion and Apryl are actually the parents of two kids: son Megaa Omari is nearly two years old and daughter A’mei Kazuko is four months old.
Jones, known for her role on the aforementioned VH1 reality series, also confirmed the breakup, tweeting very simply and sadly:
“Single…. the end….”
Just three weeks ago, Omarion penned a heartfelt message on Instagram, praising Apryl as a mother.
She put put up with my Krazy,” he wrote at the time.
“Now we have crazy kids. Thank you for giving me the two best gifts ever! A’mei & Megaa. They changed me forever! & Maybe I don’t express my gratitude enough. I am rebuilding some things inside myself.
“With all that goes on in my world, I can depend on you. Because you’re solid. Thank you @aprylsjones just in case you needed a reminder on how awesome of a mother you’re.
“Looking at my time line I’am aware i could be dealing with someone way worst. Glad that’s not our situation.”
How did we go so quickly from THAT to THIS?
An insider tells E! News that Omarion and Apryl Jones “started to fade out of love,” explaining:
“This has been something they have been trying to work and build stronger for a while now. The traveling that Omarion had to do started to put a toll on Apryl.
“She is a great mother, and he will support her and his family.”
As for what’s next? The source says:
“She will be moving out and getting her own place.”
Let’s hope they continue to co-parent despite their relationship coming to an end. For the sake of their children.

Louis Tomlinson: Did He Demand DNA Test of Newborn?
Louis Tomlinson seems very happy to be a father.
Soon after ex-lover Briana Jungwirth gave birth to a boy, Tomlinson Tweeted confirmation of the news, referring to the tiny bloke as “amazing.”
The handsome singer then went on to share an adorable photo of his son, Freddie.
Prior to doing so, however, In Touch Weekly alleges that Tomlinson wanted to make absolutely sure that the baby was actually his.
“He wanted proof the baby was his,” an insider tells the tabloid. “Louis had [a DNA] test done as soon as the baby was born.”
By most accounts, Tomlinson and Jungwirth were never a couple.
They seemed to have had a brief fling last year that included at least one round of unprotected sex and that’s all it takes to produce a child.
(Remember that, kids. Use protection.)
Tomlinson has since been supportive of Jungwirth and insiders say he plans on playing a role in the baby’s life – but, given these circumstances, it’s still understandable that he may have wanted a paternity test taken.
Jungwirth may not be one of them, but there are plenty of groupies out there who try to trap celebrities via false baby claims.
Moreover, In Touch Weekly writes that Jungwirth (pictured below with her son) was seeing someone else at the time she slept with Tomlinson.
In the end, however, the test came back positive.
Tomlinson is right to celebrate and we’re right to send him our best wishes because he really is a father. Hooray!
