Now that Nicole Kidman has done birthed her baby this morning, our celebrity bump watch list is down one … but we still have a couple of imminent births to look foward to (Angelina Jolie and Gwen Stefani) and, of course, we’re still months away from the birth of Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz‘s firstborn child. And speaking of … here are a few pics of Ashl33n doing a bit of bargain shopping at the Hollywood Flea Market yesterday afternoon:

I’m still pretty amazed at how fast Ashlee‘s tummy ballooned … one day she wasn’t showing any sign of a baby bump and then seemingly overnight she started looking like she was smuggling a watermelon underneath her shirt. Pregs or not, tho, both Ashlee and Pete are still pretty emo-goth ’til they die … how else can you explain the black outfits in the blistering California heat? Not only is their baby going to be born with eyeliner already applied but they’ll prolly wrap the little darling in black diapers from Goths R Us. It is still so crazy to imagine these two as actual parents … kids grow up so fast, don’t they?

The newly pregs Ashlee Simpson was spotted out and about in LA yesterday lookin’ all happy and glowy while wearing a very orange, flowy dress … coupled with a headband and gladiator shoes — this summers requisite must-have accessories for any Hollywood “It” Girl — Ash was lookin’ fabulously stylish:

While I don’t really mind the headband fad that is all the rage these days, I’m not really on board with the gladiator shoes. I mean, I get that there has to be an “it” shoe for the summer (hopefully those little bootie shoes are on their way out) but the gladiator shoe with the far-too-many straps just doesn’t do it for me. At any rate, I’d expect nothing less of Ashlee than her strict adherence to the fashion trends of the summer … pregs or not, she is a slave to fashion.

Pete Wentz has updated his official blog at FriendsorEnemies.com with the news that he and wife Ashlee Simpson have just added a new member to their growing family. The couple adopted a 10 week old baby girl named Rigby … and here she is:

From Pete‘s blog: the newest addition to the family. meet rigby. shes ten weeks right now and pretty much follows hem around.

Hem would be Pete‘s dog Hemmingway (who was just made into a birthday cake for Pete‘s birthday). Could little Rigby be a way for Ashl33n to practice their parenting skills now that they are expecting a baby of their own? Could be. I will say this for the happy fam, they really did get themselves an adorable new pooch. Mazal Tov! and much Congrats! to the entire Ashl33n family.

The newly wedded Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were spotted making their way thru LAX airport earlier this week with an extra special third party making a bold appearance. Here are a few pics of Ashl33n proudly showing off their emerging baby bump as they made their way thru the terminal and thru the security checkpoint:

No word on where the happy couple was jetting off to (I’m sure they’ll pop up soon enough, maybe in NYC) but they looked pleased as pie to be showing off their little bump. I suspect Papa Joe Simpson is pleased as well … to him, that bump represents beaucoup bucks once the child is born. But despite his grossness, I am very happy for Ashl33n and the coming birth of their child.

While the happy and in love Jessimo spent part of their weekend at the grocery store, newlyweds Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and Pete Wentz spent part of their weekend at the movies (looks like the Arc Light theater) checking out the new M. Night Shyamalan travesty The Happening. Here are a couple pics of the couple as they made their mad dash thru the theater lobby:

From what I understand, The Happening is just a horribly bad movie of epic proportions. Steph and Alek saw the film and, altho they thought the concept was intriguing, felt the movie suffered from poor acting, poor writing and poor directing. Sounds about right for an M. Night Shyamalan movie. That man lost me for good when he put out Lady in the Water so I have zero interest in seeing this film. I shant risk spoiling the concept for those of you who (at your own peril) still might want to see this movie … but if and when you see it, remember that I tried to warn you. I say, go see The Incredible Hulk instead … it’s a brills superhero movie worthy of your time and money. I dunno who was responsible between Ashl33n for picking the movie this weekend but I suspect they won’t be doing the movie picking for the rest of their marriage.

Well now … it looks as if newly married Ashlee Simpson is finally starting to show that she really is pregs, only weeks after the official announcement was made that she is with child. Here are a couple of very recent photos of Ashlee here in SoCal this week showing her bump progression … one day it’s nonexistent, the next day it starts to show:

Photo credit: JFXOnlineWeeks after confirming she’s expecting, a pregnant Ashlee Simpson is starting to show. The newlywed popped by Hollywood’s RenMar Studios in a flowy maxi-dress with a plunging neckline on Monday. Her husband Pete Wentz recently admitted he was “nervous … the first time I ever went to the doctor’s office.” But after hearing the baby’s heartbeat, “I felt totally content and at peace with everything,” he said. “It feels good.”It still kinda blows my mind that A.) Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are a married couple and B.) she is pregs with their first child. I am very happy for the couple … I’m sure they’re thrilled at the prospect of becoming parents (I, for the life of me, cannot imagine what that must feel like). That being said, this miniscule baby bump seems pretty small for Ashlee to have been pregs way back when the rumors started to swirl back when she was promoting her new album. Obvs, I’m no OBGYN but I’m still pretty sure that Ash only got pregs after she started playing coy with the “is she or isn’t she?” pregs thing a few months ago. Irregardless of when she got pregs, I’m looking forward to the birth of this little emo baby. Here’s hoping it has Ashlee‘s old nose and Pete‘s flat-ironed hair. [Source]

The newly wed Peter Lewis Kingston Wentz III celebrated his 29th birthday in style last night at a semi-private birthday party that was held in the VIP area of the Foxtail nightclub that was thrown in his honor by famed LA partyplanner Brent Bolthouse. Pete and his new wife Ashlee Simpson have announced that the couple are pregs with their first child … but that didn’t keep Ash away from the festivities. Here are pics of the happy couple as they made their way into Pete‘s party last night:

Photo credit: X17Fall Out Boy’s Pete Wentz had more than just his 29th birthday to celebrate on Thursday night — the rock star recently wed gal pal Ashlee Simpson and the pair recently confirmed OK!’s report that they will soon be expecting their first child together. So to ring in Pete’s last year before turning 30 — and maybe his last big party before he has to start changing diapers — nightlife maven Brent Bolthouse arranged for a private party for the couple in the exclusive upstairs VIP area at his hot Hollywood club Foxtail, where the newlyweds — Pete in an all-black tuxedo-ish getup, Ashlee in a sleeveless ruffled dress and ankle boots — arrived around 9:45pm in a stretch limo. Even though there was Secret-Service-style security on-hand, with bouncers laser-scanning VIP wristbands and extra muscle men circulating around the club, that didn’t stop the mom-and-pop-to-be from spending most of the party downstairs, away from their invite-only guests upstairs. “Pete and Ash worked the dining room,” one clubgoer tells OK!. “They were walking from table to table, chatting and shaking hands.” Maybe Pete is making a bid for the Vice Presidency? Pete and his still-blushing bride eventually settled at a long table with eight friends who were eating and drinking the night away. “They didn’t sip a drop of alcohol,” one insider says about Pete and Ashlee. “Though I can’t say the same for their guests!” At the stroke of midnight, waiters brought out a birthday cake, with “Happy 29th Birthday Pete” written on it, to the table while the crowd sang “Happy Birthday.” The pop-punker had a bit of trouble when he attempted to blow out his candles, requiring three attempts and accidentally dowsing the front of his suit jacket with icing. Around 1am, it was time for the couple to call it a night, as they exited out the front door and into their awaiting limo, which took them back home.What a sweet and pretty picture. I love the clarification that neither Pete nor Ashlee touched any of the free-flowing booze that was readily available at last night’s party … they surely don’t want anyone forgetting that Ashlee is pregs. No word on whether or not Pete‘s new BFF John Mayer was in the hiz last night but I’m sure that good ol’ Petey wasn’t wanting for friendly companionship at his party. Happy Birthday, Pete … sounds like you had a very lovely time last night. [Source]
