New mom (again) Nicole Richie is not letting a little thing like enduring child birth keep her from her regular appointed duties. Despite giving birth to her second child (and first boy), Sparrow James Midnight, a couple of weeks ago Nicole is already back on her feet and out and about again. Here are cute pics of Nicole taking her daughter Harlow Winter to her baby gym class:

You may recall that this isn’t even the first time we’ve seen her out and about since she gave birth … Nicole was spotted with Harlow just last Thursday (about one week after she popped). She looks fabulous … Harlow looks adorable … but, HELLO! I think it’s time we got a peek at little Sparrow James already. Here’s hoping Nicole, daddy Joel Madden and BOTH of their little darlings venture out for a family outing into the wild soon ;)

Last week she was giving birth to baby #2, this week Nicole Richie is out and about on the streets of SoCal carrying around baby #1 … behold:

Yesterday we saw new photos of new dad Joel Madden out and about for the first time since his son Sparrow James Midnight was born last week and earlier today we saw a few more … but I did not expect that we’d be seeing Nicole out and about so soon after giving birth … and shopping in Beverly Hills, CA no less! Clearly, Nicole as got the whole giving birth thing down … she pops ‘em out and gets right back to her routine. I’m dying at how cute Harlow Winter is … Nic/Joel make some cute babies. I cannot WAIT to see the fruits of their latest labor.

Congratulations are in order for Nicole Richie and Joel Madden on the birth of their second child, a baby boy they have named Sparrow James Midnight! The official announcement was made on Nicole’s official website but the news was quickly disseminated by Joel on his official Twitter profile. It’s a boy!!

In the middle of night, the very early hours of September 9, 2009 Sparrow James Midnight Madden was born to Nicole Richie and Joel Madden. He weighs 7lbs 14oz. Nicole, Joel, Harlow and Sparrow are all doing well. Thank you for all of your good wishes.

Joel tweeted: Geuss who’s back….. Oh i’m sorry we were only having a little baby boy.

I guess it turns out that those rumors we heard back in May about the baby being a boy turned out to be true!! You may recall that we learned over the weekend that Nicole reportedly checked into the hospital to give birth … and at last the Nic/Joel’s second child is born! Surely this must be a magic baby … he was born on 09.09.09. I can only imagine that the little guy is as cute as his big sister Harlow Winter Kate. Much, much love and congrats to the happy family on their expansion!! XO

According to a few sources, Nicole Richie reportedly checked herself into a local SoCal hospital here in LA yesterday presumably so that she could give birth to that baby she’s been carrying around in her uterus for the past 9 months or so. Now, because there has been no official confirmation that she actually checked into the hospital and, to my knowledge, there are no photos of her arriving at the hospital, we should treat this info as rumor … but, just in case she does give birth today or tomorrow I felt it would be wise to pass along this rumor, just in case:

You may recall that Joel Madden announced on his official website that Nicole was pregs with the couple’s second child back in February, which was 7 months ago. If you consider that he decided to wait a month or two after they learned she was pregs to make the announcement, it’s about time for her to pop. Whether she has checked into the hospital or not, I hope she is doing well and that he is able to give birth to a healthy baby when the time is right … but I can’t help but also hope that the time is right right now ;)

Earlier this month we learned that Nicole Richie hosted the launch even for her new line of maternity wear designed exclusively for A Pea in the Pod and today we get to see her featured in a lovely new promo photo for the collection:

Not only does Nicole make an excellent designer for the company, she also makes a beautifully radiant spokesmodel. She is getting closer and closer to birthing her second child but it’s clear from this photo that she makes being pregs look really good. It’s funny, I love Nicole pregs so much that I hope she makes it her new career. Wouldn’t she make an excellent candidate for professional pregnancy?

Nicole Richie was on hand in Beverly Hills, CA last night to debut her fashionable new line of maternity wear for A Pea in the Pod. Last month it was announced that Richie and Pod were teaming up to design a line of stylish wear for the pregs woman to wear and last night was its coming out party. Nicole, her burgeoning baby bump and others walked the red carpet last night in celebration … behold:

One of Tinsel town’s most fashionable moms-to-be is adding a little flair to maternity clothing. Nicole Richie, known for her Bohemian style, is teaming up with A Pea in the Pod to create a maternity wear collection, The former “The Simple Life” star announced on her blog on Tuesday. She’s extending her House of Harlow brand, which currently includes her successful jewelry range, to offer chic clothing choices for expectant women. Richie, 27, who gave birth to her line’s namesake, daughter Harlow, in January 2008, is pregnant with her and Good Charlotte frontman Joel Madden’s second child. An “excited” Richie posted behind-the-scenes pictures from her shoot with photographer James White for the upcoming collection.

Click HERE to visit Nicole’s official blog to see some of the behind-the-scenes photos that she posted from the photoshoot for her maternity wear line. To be honest, you don’t get to see many of her designs but you do get to see a few pics of those headbands she loves to wear. Click HERE to visit the A Pea in the Pod website to see some of her fashions. Now, maternity wear is not really something I know anything about but I imagine that most of it is not geared for the fashion conscious … I think it’s nice that someone is putting out clothing that pregs mommies to be can wear and still look stylish. Nicole’s a cool mom, y’all … it’s nice that she’s sharing her coolness with other hot moms.

Here is a supercute pic of Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, their firstborn daughter Harlow Winter and their incubating baby bump to the Santa Monica Pier here in SoCal on Sunday for a lovely family outing together … behold:

It won’t be long now before Nic/Joel welcome the birth of their newest little addition to the family (will it be a boy? will it be a girl?) so I’m sure they’re doing all they can to enjoy as much time together as a threesome as they can before the new baby takes center stage. It’s so insane to think that Harlow Winter is about to become a big sister … it feels like she was just born yesterday. I’m just so happy for the Richie-Madden family … they seem so happy and are deffo so in love with one another. I predict that they won’t stop at just 2 babies ;) Aren’t they just the cutest?
