Monday sees Sundays birth

Nicole Kidman gave birth Monday to a baby girl named Sunday.

In a statement emailed to The Associated Press, Paul Freundlich, a publicist for husband Keith Urban, said: "Nicole and Keith Urban are delighted to announce that Nicole Kidman gave birth to a baby girl on Monday morning, July 7, 2008, in the United States. Sunday Rose Kidman Urban weighed 6 pounds, 7 1/2 ounces. Husband Keith was by Nicole's side and mother and baby are very well."

Urban posted a message on his website that said: "Earlier this morning Nic gave birth to our beautiful baby girl, Sunday Rose Kidman Urban. We want to thank everybody that has kept us in their thoughts and prayers. We feel very blessed and grateful that we can share this joy with all of you today."

The baby is the first for Kidman and Urban. She has two adopted children, Isabella and Connor, from her marriage to Tom Cruise. Kidman recently told Vanity Fair that she had a miscarriage early on in her relationship with Cruise, leading them to adopt.

Cruise filed for divorce in February 2001 after 10 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. The divorce was finalized later that year.

Kidman, 41, won an Oscar for her role in the 2002 film "The Hours."

During a concert Saturday in Nashville, Urban, a singer and guitarist raised in Australia, said, "I'm going to dedicate a song to my very, very, very, very, very pregnant wife" before singing his hit, "Better Half."

Urban, 40, won a Grammy in 2006 for best male country vocal.

Nicole Testifies

SYDNEY, Australia -- Nicole Kidman told a courtroom Monday how she was reduced to tears and feared a car accident after a celebrity photographer pursued her two years ago.
Kidman, who divides her time between Los Angeles and her hometown of Sydney, Australia, was testifying in the photographer's defamation suit against a Sydney newspaper that slammed him for allegedly hounding the Oscar-winning actress.

Feeling Better On Saturday

Its Saturday afternoon and for the first time this week I am feeling a little better, finally. I can't recall the last time I slept so much or spent so much time just laying around, but it seems to have worked and this cold is passing. Now I've got a ton of work that needs to be done around here and I will try to get to some of it today.

David bought the new live Pet Shop Boys CD, 'Concrete'. We just finished listening to it. There aren't any new songs on it, but there are new versions of some of their older stuff and a few from their newest CD 'Fundamental'. I guess that gets crossed off of his birthday/Christmas gift list!

Last night we watched one of the latest DVD's in my Nicole Kidman collection, Stanley Kubrick's 'Eyes Wide Shut' which also stars Nicoles ex-husband, Tom Cruise. I had never seen this movie until last night, and I would have to describe it as unusual and even bizarre, but interesting.

You may have noticed something new here. On the left side of the page, down below the word of the Daye is something called 'match-up'. You click on a word in the left column and try to match it with its definition in the right column. I've been doing these for awhile now, and they are usually quite challenging, so I thought I would share it with you here. I hope you like it.
