Meet Dolly Rose & Charlie Tulip Romijn-O’Connell
Early last week we learned that Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell became the proud parents of twin daughters in late December that they named Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip. The very next day we spied Jerry making his exit from the hospital, proudly showing off his baby girls’ footprints … then, last Friday we saw pics of Jerry making a diaper run for his newborn daughters. Earlier today, Jerry played co-host on Live with Regis and Kelly and he just so happened to bring along a photo of Dolly Rose and Charlie Tulip, which he happily shared with the live TV audience:
Jerry O’Connell is one proud papa. So proud, in fact, that the actor cannot help but show off baby pictures on national television. “I don’t want to be one of those guys who is like, ‘Look at my babies,’ ” O’Connell, 34, said, joking with Kelly Ripa while cohosting Live with Regis and Kelly on Friday. “The second you have kids, you can’t help but be like, ‘I happen to have some photos of my children.’ ” The actor and wife Rebecca Romijn welcomed twin girls, Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip, on Dec. 28. Since becoming a first-time dad, O’Connell is learning a lot – and has become a bit health and hygiene-obsessed. “I do wash my hands all the time,” he said, noting that he also picked up one important tip: How to properly change his daughters’ diapers and wipe. “Front to back,” O’Connell noted, prompting laughs from Ripa and the audience. One other tip to parents: Speak to children like they are adults. “I really try to not speak in baby talk,” he said. “I want them to be intelligent.” As for his growing family, O’Connell said he’s super-thrilled that he has twins. “These are my first kids and Rebecca’s first kids, and you can’t imagine just have one. It’s so much fun to have two of them. You throw them in the crib and they just play with each other.” The actor also credited his wife for being so hands on. “I have to give a lot of kudos to my wife,” he told Ripa. “[She] is now waking up every three hours and doing what we call the ‘Double Football,’ ” O’Connell said. “They eat at the same time!”
Oh my … these babies are so cute!! I’m not sure which one is which but they both look like little tiny peas in a pod. I’m sure that Jerry and Rebecca are OVER THE MOON with happiness right now. After the jump, check out a short video clip of Jerry showing off his baby girls on Live earlier today …
I suspect we’ll be seeing other photos of the girls in the weeks to come … I’d bet you anything that the girls will be featured in an upcoming issue of People magazine or some other mag, despite the fact that they already made their debut on live television today. I know I’d love to see other, more clear photos of the little dolls.

Those names are awful, just like Jerry’s career.

From the size of those fingers next to the babies I’d suspect the babies are under 3# each. Are they? I thought they were closer to 5#. Or else someone has some HUGE fingers. Ewwww1

Ok, I’m a tool. The fingers were just holding the photo. Duh!

Dolly O’Connell and Charlie O’Connell arent horrible names, I think theyre kind of cute. Its not like people use their middle names in every day life. They were talking about these names on the radio and it seemed like most people thought they were decent.

ugh, I really don’t want a celebaby having the same name as me.

Can I just say how awesome it is that he’s showing off pictures on the telly instead of auctioning them off for millions he doesn’t need? I love that.
