Nicole Kidman: We’re So Blessed

Thu, 10 July 2008 at 12:20 pm

Proud parents Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban just released a statement about their beautiful four-day-old daughter Sunday Rose Kidman Urban.

“We feel immensely blessed and grateful to be given this beautiful baby girl,” the Aussie power couple tells People. “She’s an absolute delight.”

Nicole, 41, gave birth to Sunday at a Nashville hospital on Monday, with Keith, 40, by her side throughout the delivery.

On Tuesday, Nicole’s father Antony told Australian newspaper The Daily Telegraph that Sunday’s name was inspired by 20th-century artist’s muse Sunday Reed.

Mr. Kidman said, “I have read a bit about Sunday Reed and her husband John – she was a key mover and shaker in the arts around the beginning of the century. The name Sunday struck me as being a nice name for a woman, so my wife and I mentioned it.”

Sunday’s middle name is a tribute to Keith’s late grandmother Rose.

2nd!!! I think Sunday is a lovely name. Congratulations to Nicole and Keith. Nicole has wanted this for such a long time and deserves a wonderful spotlight on her and the family. Cannot wait for pictures.

I’m sorry to say this but she never really looked pregnant to me. I know each woman carry pregnancy differently, but the only sign of her being pregnant was her very small baby bump. The other parts of her body showed no sign of pregnancy, and any woman who has ever been pregnant knows especially a first pregnancy that the breast gets larger. There is something slightly odd about her pregnancy

I’m sure that is one beautiful baby girl.

What a lovely family! Nicole’s dad seems like a great guy. The name Sunday is cute and unusual, and I’m getting used to it now. Rose is a very sweet and romantic name, and their choice of names tell me that Nicole and Keith are Christian and true romantics.

Much happiness and joy to all of you and especially to little baby Sunday Rose.

Violet - what does this have to do with Tom Cruise? Keep the focus on Nicole and Keith for a change.

I work in the field and all pregnant women carry different. Nicole is a very tall women who gained mostly all weight in her midsection, her hips did expand and breasts were bigger as well, she is just one of the luck ones that is all baby and doesn’t have to deal with looking bigger in other places.

She was very thin pre-pregnancy too and she exercised regularly while pregnant and that kept her in shape.

There is nothing odd about that. She has great genetics that’s all and being only 5′2 myself I know I won’t look like that when I do conceive. LOL

And in response to #4, um why wouldn’t you call a women that struggled to conceive and then did and carried to term blessed? More blessed than a sixteen year old girl getting knocked up on accident.

Keith is a warm, loving man, not a psychopath like Tom. Nicole is blessed to have him and his love and loyalty. Nicole was the one who tamed the tiger and made him a man.

He will be a wonderful father.

I don’t think she really was pregnant. I think they bought a baby! Something doesn’t seem right!

jennifer @ 07/10/2008 at 1:25 pm

“Pregnant man”. What a joke that one was. I wouldn’t call someone who has a womb and a ****** a “man”. She is a woman who wanted to be something she can’t ever be. So sad and pathetic.

Congratulations to the most beautiful and sweet couple in the world! Your Sunday must be such a wonderful and lovely baby.

They censured the word vag*na?? Oh my god..how weird is that?

#4– You said Nicole is “unable to get impregnated.” Obviously that can’t be true because she just had a baby!

Fertility science has advanced a lot since Nicole first tried to get pregnant with Tom. I think that’s why he broke up with her, because he wanted biological children. That’s why he waited to marry Katie Holmes until *after* she had Suri.

Hope Nicole has time for a few more…

I dont see why all the fake pregnancy fuss…When I had my first pregnancy..I didnt have to wear maternity clothes till exactly 2 1/2 months before my daughter was born (AND YES I DID EAT!! ONCE I ATE A WHOLE CHEESECAKE IN LIKE A COUPLE HOURS) My boobs NEVER got bigger, till after she was born.I stayed in my same bras till the end.. And all the weight fell right off… She weighed 6′3 oz…. But my next one was 100 % different and weighed 8′4 oz.. EVERYONE AND EVERY PREGNANCY IS DIFFERENT!!

just causeshe didn’t gain 40 lbs in her pregnancy doesn’t mean she wasn’t pregnant. sunday rose was born at an average weight so she’s healthy and beautiful.
i heard they aren’t releasing a photoshoot but will release a photo soon. i can’t wait.
