It's A Girl ... Welcome Estelle Fleury!!

FINALLY!!!  The much-anticipated baby of Penguins goalie Marc-Andre Fleury has arrived!!  Welcome little Estelle Fleury!!!  She was born sometime in the afternoon or evening this past Friday.  THANKS to all of you who kept me updated with your comments and emails!! :)

There had been some confusion last week as to if she was born or not (because there was a tweet that started mass buzz about her arrival when it only talked of the baby girl's name).

Apparently, the baby girl was clost to 10 pounds (I can only imagine since Veronique is so tiny!) and she doesn't have Fleury's teeth (and that's straight from the new daddy's mouth!)!!

 

CONGRATULATIONS TO MARC-ANDRE, VERONIQUE AND THEIR ENTIRE FAMILY!!

Marc-Andre and Veronique Fleury to Welcome Baby SOON!!

As you all may know, Marc-Andre Fleury and his wife, Veronique, are expecting their first child any day now (she is due this month).

There have been "conflicting" reports as to her status, but what is known is that Fleury did not make the trip to Ottawa with the team for tonight's game.

Different reports say that she IS "in labor" while another says she's not in labor, but she's close to giving birth while yet another says that Fleury is home for the birth of his child, so as you can see I'm not quite sure what's going on, but it sounds like it could be soon.

Stay tuned, ladies, as you all KNOW that I will keep you posted for sure!! ;)

Did You See This Pic?

That's how the conversation started, innocently enough ... Kena (YES - THAT Kena ... remember her?  The previous WCH writer???!!!!).  Anyway, Kena texted me this pic and simply asked, "did you see this pic?"

Well, have any of YOU seen this pic??  Let's see how many of you react like I did and how many react like Kena did ...

THE PIC:



James Neal (I think - LOL!) welcoming newest Penguins defenseman, Douglas Murray


[Part of] THE CONVERSATION:

Stephanie: "No ... LOL!!"
Kena: "Sweet, huh."
S: If you're referring to Nealy's ass ... YES, SWEET!!!  Sweet Jesus!!
K: Ha ha.  You recognize him from just his ass?  I'm impressed!  Ha ha ha ha ... Poor Sid ...

... CONVERSATION continues ...

K: Although, I have now been made aware of Neal's ass, I will be pre-occupied for a while.  Lol
S: HAH!!

So, ladies, what caught YOUR eye in that pic??  Responses are welcome in the comments ... we'd love to hear from you!!!  You just GOTTA LOVE Under Armor!!! : D

Marc-Andre Fleury to Become Father this Spring!!

This past Sunday, we finally got confirmation that Marc-Andre Fleury and his wife, Veronique, will be welcoming their first child into the world this coming Spring.  It came in the form of a little gem hidden in a Pittsburgh Tribune-Review article by Rob Rossi:

Fleury has since made millions, won the Stanley Cup, earned a spot on a gold-medal Olympic team and married his childhood sweetheart. He will become a first-time father this spring.

Although the exact date is unknown, I believe I've read somewhere that it is to be in April 2013.  But does Rossi go as far as to give us a HINT as to the sex of the baby??!!!

That child will one day have a chance to say her father won more games than any goaltender in the history of the Penguins, who opened their 45th season Saturday.

We'll see come April, ladies, won't we?!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO MARC-ANDRE and VERONIQUE!!

It's A Boy (Locklan Ladd)!!

This past Wednesday Winnipeg Jets captain, Andrew Ladd, and his wife Brandy welcomed their first child into the world.  A son they name Locklan Joseph.

"It was an amazing experience. I was there through the whole thing," said Ladd, who missed Wednesday's practice to be in the delivery room with his wife. "Anyone's that had a chance to witness their child being born, it's unlike anything else. I can't really put it into words."

CONGRATULATIONS TO ANDREW and BRANDY!!!

It's A Girl (Valentina Lucic)!!

This past Thursday, Milan Lucic and his wife, Brittany, welcomed a baby girl into the world -- the couple's first child. Valentina Lucic was a healthy 8 pounds and 1 ounce and showed up 10 days earlier than her expected due date.  Both mother and baby are doing well according to the Boston Bruins organization.

The couple were married back in August 2012.
