Pete Wentz is desperate to release a new album with his fellow Fall Out Boy bandmates - despite preparing to become a first time father with his new wife Ashlee Simpson.

The rocker wed pop star Simpson last month in a lavish ceremony and two weeks later, the pair confirmed they are expecting their first child.

But, according to Fall Out Boy singer Patrick Stump, Wentz still has music on his mind - and even on his wedding day, he and his bandmates “were like, ‘We should do another record.’”

Stump adds, “The band is really not talking about a record yet, but we’re all itching to do one. We’re always writing. We’ve had material since (2007 album) Infinity on High dropped. So there is plenty just floating around. There is nothing ‘hiatus’ or ‘indefinite’ about what’s going on with Fall Out Boy right now.”

Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz may be on their way to becoming first-time parents, but Ashlee’s older sister has no doubt the sort of mother her sibling will be.

“She’ll be amazing, absolutely amazing,” Jessica Simpson, 27, told People in Las Vegas Saturday at the grand opening of Palms Place.

Jessica, who is dipping into the country-music scene, also says that her sister’s relationship with the Fall Out Boy bassist helps inspire her own music.

“They’re just the cutest couple in the world,” she says. “They are adorable. Anybody would wish to be them and you can only wish them well. Just being around them inspires love and everything I sing about.”

At the Vegas event, newlywed Ashlee, 23, never strayed far from her sister, as the two hung out in the VIP area and took photos together – several with Jess’s hand on her sister’s stomach – while Pete Wentz remained only a few feet away, playing DJ at the event.

Came the end of his two-hour set, Wentz, 28, thanked his “baby mama.”

Pete Wentz has defended his decision to keep his wife Ashlee Simpson’s pregnancy a secret from the media - insisting he wanted to “protect her and the baby”.

The couple was dogged by baby rumors for weeks, but refused to confirm the news until Wednesday - after Simpson had passed the first trimester of her pregnancy.

And the Fall Out Boy guitarist felt it was only right to keep the news quiet until his wife was given a full bill of health from doctors.

He tells MTV.com, “Every woman, no matter who they are or what they do for a living, has the right to wait at least three months before sharing this very personal news. We wanted to wait until after the first trimester before confirming anything, just like any other couple. Being a boy I have no idea how to respond to such things and my first instinct was to protect her and the baby.”

“It’s insane that you can’t let happy news brew in Hollywood. This wasn’t about press or anything. It was about the health of the baby and trying to find a way to be happy with what should be the most happy time of our lives in the middle of a press blitz. I apologize to anyone who felt misinformed but the truth is, the person and growing baby is who I felt most loyal to protect and defend.”

Pete Wentz commissioned an artist to build a huge bumblebee out of Lego as a wedding day treat for his new wife Ashlee Simpson.

The Fall Out Boy rocker asked Nathan Sawaya to make the symbolic creature out of 18,000 Lego bricks.

Sawaya tells E!online.com, “In Hindu myth, Kama, the god of love, has a bow and arrows, and the bow string is made up of bees.”

“In the ancient Greek world the bee symbolized the soul because they migrated in swarms. And the Roman god of love, Cupid, is often pictured with bees or being stung.”

“I made this bee for a boy who wanted to give his girl a special wedding gift.
“They are a fun couple as evidenced by their Alice in Wonderland-themed wedding.”

The couple, who wed in Encino, California on May 17th, has just confirmed Simpson is pregnant with her first child.

Wentz announced his new wife is pregnant by writing on his website, “While many have speculated about this, we wanted to wait until after the first trimester to officially confirm that we are expecting our first child.

The pair wed in Encino, California earlier this month.

Newly married Ashlee Simpson is changing her name to Ashlee Wentz in honor of her husband, Fall Out Boy Pete Wentz.

“I think that that’s something that a woman should do when they’re marrying a man,” she tells PEOPLE. “It’s a tradition that I think is a great tradition.”

The singer, whose May 17 wedding featured an Alice in Wonderland-themed reception, says that privately she’ll go by Ashlee Wentz and professionally she’ll be Ashlee Simpson-Wentz.

Pete Wentz says he left the name change decision to his wife. “These decisions with Ashlee and her name are all completely up to Ashlee,” Wentz says. “I want her to do these kinds of things the way she wants to do them.”

Still, he admits, he was flattered. “Oh man, I was like upgrade me! You know what I’m saying? The Wentz family, our Christmas card just got upgraded!” he says. “It feels insane. It feels unreal.”
