ring ring, its the truth calling…

About baby pics gossip: truth is like every celeb couple we were offered
mounds and mounds of money by mags from here to Guam to pimp out the baby. We just don’t want to go down that road with him.

We are not placing judgment on those that do as they often use the money in a very charitable way. However, we have made the decision to not sell Bronx’s baby pictures right now. We understand that like other celebrities have said, “there is a bounty on our heads” for these pictures. There is a danger when there are cameras being held over walls and into our backyard. We are followed day and night and that was fine when it was us but we are going to do our best to shelter Bronx from that as much as possible. Its scary to be followed by 10 cars to your home. We understand the curiosity, just not the viciousness that comes along with it when it becomes so insatiable. We know there will be a time when we’ll share him with everyone because that insatiable curiousity becomes unsafe or simply because we’re proud parents who want to show him off! We know our fans support and care about us and want to know about our family and we’ve always been straight up and open with those who care about us most, so at some time, when it makes sense, Bronx will be out in the world.

In the meantime, we’d like to say thank you to those who have allowed us relative privacy in letting us just be a family for now - and to enjoy all the happiness he’s brought us.

ps trust me he’s cute. he looks like his mommy.

aww so cute!
i find his decision extremely respectable

Hello!!!

Hey everyone! I haven’t written in a while, just wanted to write and check in! Motherhood is the most fantastic experience I have ever been thru, Bronx makes me laugh and smile everyday! I finally left the house for Fall Out Boy’s show on Monday night, which was so good. Their new songs sound awesome live, I can’t wait for their new record! And last night I went to Pete and Bronx’s godfather Travis’ artshow. It’s amazing to see how many artistic outlets those boys have! Made me very proud. It was an awesome show and so many of our friends and family came out to support. I hope you guys have a great holiday, I can’t wait to spend it with my new family. Christmas tree goes up tomorrow!

Being in the delivery room shortly before Ashlee Simpson gave birth Nov. 20 was “pretty surreal,” Pete Wentz says in his first interview since welcoming son Bronx.

“Obviously, some stuff my wife would freak if I said, but she’s pretty much a saint,” he said Tuesday on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show. “Right before she went into labor, I was like, ‘Oh my God, I think I’m having a heart attack!’

“Natural things start going on in your body,” Wentz went on. “My heart started beating really fast.”

He explained, “You seen your wife in all this pain, and you really don’t know what’s happening.”

But Ashlee “took care of me and made sure I was OK and then we went into labor,” Wentz told Seacrest. “That’s why she’s a saint.

“She’s a amazing girl. She was like, ‘I will make sure you’re OK,’” he added. “I didn’t even stop to think, ‘Well, you just had an epidural and you’re about to have a baby!’”

When she had the baby, Wentz said that Ashlee remarked, “‘He’s beautiful. He’s perfect.’

“We were instantly in love,” he said of the boy. “It’s impossible not to be!”

He said his wife is doing “really good” right now.

See how Ashlee Simpson’s style has changed over the years.

Wentz said he’s changed “quite a few” diapers already - even some “exploding” ones.

As friends and family flock to get their first glimpse of Bronx, Wentz said,
“Having a child is like opening a new spot in L.A. — everyone’s trying to get in every night!”

Eventually, the Fall Out Boy bassist said Bronx “is definitely going to come out on tour. We need a whole team of stuff that is going to get him through that.”

As for the unique moniker, Bronx Mowgli?

He said he and Ashlee had been “throwing it back and forth a while ago. I feel weird because all these people have all these ideas on what it means … I don’t think anyone knows the real story of why or how.”

[Jungle Book] author Rudyard Kipling is “really cool and The Jungle Book is something that me and Ashlee bonded over,” Wentz explained.

Of fatherhood, he also noted, “It’s different when it happens. Your life is 100 percent different now - you want it to be different.”

A baby name expert is weighing in on Bronx Mowgli, the newborn son of Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and Pete Wentz.

“I’d say that in the world of unusual or bizarre baby names, this is the biggest double whammy since Moxie CrimeFighter [daughter of magician Penn Jillette] and Pilot Inspektor [son of actor Jason Lee],” Linda Rosenkrantz, co-author of The Baby Name Bible tells Usmagazine.com.

So where does Bronx come from?

“Bronx - named after early Dutch settler Jonas Bronck - follows in the footsteps of that other NYC borough, Brooklyn, but is not likely to set off a baby name fad as Brooklyn has,” Rosenkrantz adds.

(Victoria and David Beckham named their nine-year-old son Brooklyn after the area of NYC in which he was conceived.)

Brooklyn is more popular than Bronx because it “has a soft, feminine sound - in fact it’s No. 57 on the girls’ popularity list and seen by some parents as the combination of two female names, Brooke and Lynn,” Rosenkrantz says.

“Bronx has a much harsher, grittier sound, and the nickname Bronxie has something of a negative feel,” adds the expert.

But Bronx “follows the tradition started by the Jolie-Pitts of x-ending boys’ names, such in Maddox, Pax and Knox…and the trend for ‘place names’ like Kingston and Paris,” Rosenkrantz points out.

The newborn’s middle name, Mowgli, “was created by Rudyard Kipling for his Jungle Book stories, best remembered by most people via the spunky 10-year-old boy brought up by wolves in the 1967 Disney animated version.

“Even though in the stories Mowgli was said to mean ‘frog,’ it was actually made up by the author and has no real meaning,” she adds.

Overall, the Wentzs may have gone with the moniker because “obviously they’re into Disney big time!” Rosenkrantz says.

“Just weeks ago, the mother-to-be was given a Winnie the Pooh-themed baby shower,” Rosenkrantz says. “Prior to that, the couple were married in an Alice in Wonderland-themed ceremony.”

Bronx Mowgli Wentz was born Thursday night, a rep for the Wentzs confirmed to Us.

“Ashlee, Pete and baby Bronx are all healthy and happy, and thank everyone for their well wishes!” the rep added, calling the couple “proud parents.”

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and husband Pete Wentz welcomed a son Thursday night, PEOPLE confirms.

Bronx Mowgli Wentz weighed 7 lbs., 11 oz., and was 20 1/2 inches long. (Isn’t Mowgli the boy from Jungle Book?)

“Ashlee, Pete and baby Bronx are all healthy and happy, and thank everyone for their well wishes!” a spokesperson tells PEOPLE.

Simpson-Wentz, 24, and the Fall Out Boy bassist, 29, announced her pregnancy in May, a few weeks after their opulent Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland-themed wedding.

“I would love to have a big family one day,” Simpson-Wentz told PEOPLE at the time. Added Wentz: “A big soccer team or a band!”

And, as her dad, Joe Simpson, recently put it to PEOPLE: “The day she found out she was pregnant, she became a woman.”

Wentz, meanwhile, has been leaning on rocker pal Joel Madden – dad to 9-month-old Harlow with girlfriend Nicole Richie – for tips on fatherhood. “Joel gives me advice,” Wentz recently told PEOPLE. “[It’s] been really awesome for me to go to another person my age.”

Richie and Harlow were guests at Simpson-Wentz’s Winnie the Pooh-themed baby shower on Nov. 1.

Wentz also has another kind of baby on the way: Fall Out Boy’s third album, Folie A Deux, will be released on Dec. 16.

How awesome is that picture.

Jessica Simpson says her pregnant sister Ashlee, who is due any day, is trying to everything to make that baby come out.

“Different foot massages and stuff,” Jessica said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show (airing Wednesday). “I don’t know. I think she’s really just jumping around trying everything right now.”

She adds Ashlee will likely induce the labor.

“They’re going to have to - it’s already developing really quick,” she told DeGeneres.

So, is it a boy or a girl?

“I can’t say because they haven’t said,” Jessica said. “I’ll stick my foot in my mouth and get in trouble and I won’t be a good aunt.”

Jessica also told DeGeneres that she is in love with beau Tony Romo.

“He is a good guy, and he’s really just helped me along in life and taught me a lot about being comfortable being myself — which is important,” she said.

To be a Dallas Cowboys quarterback, Simpson went on, “there’s a requirement. Like, you have to be good looking.

“Being out there and demanding and commanding that field — that’s pretty sexy,” Jessica added. “But it’s nice when you have the whole package.”

Jessica said they’re “really a lot a like. I’m just more into fashion than he is.”
