Four days ago Meagan shared these photos of Zoey & Miya (who doesn't seem afraid of the Easter bunny ): https://www.instagram.com/p/Cqqoi2MuU4X

Out of the bunny pictures I've seen, this is the cutest bunny. And the second picture where she's curiously looking up at the bunny is really cute!

Last year:

Nobunari Oda tweeted this cute photo for Father's Day (with the youngest of his 3 sons & his daughter who was born in October 2019): https://twitter.com/nobutaro1001/status/1538509785309802496

Oda's Instagram post last week shows his 2 youngest children at "Adventure World for the first time in 4 years"): https://www.instagram.com/p/Cr8VaG9p9pJ/

Adelina Sotnikova became a mother on 30th October. https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckn_8AStXE9/

The father is a tennis player named Dmitry Popko: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmitry_Popko

Apparently this has been known for a couple months now but I looked into it after seeing an instagram story today: https://www.sports.kz/news/mojet-te...kogo-tennisista-novostyu-o-beremennosti-video

Now that that's out of the way, I think this gossip item was made up: https://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2022/10/blind-item-9_10.html

Can't believe that Artur Dmitriev, Sr is a grandpa! I don't know any other former skaters during his era are grandparents.

Gunnar is a dear name. My grandfather from my mother's side was Gunnar. I never met him, he died in WW2. Best wishes for the little Gunnar and his family.

And will win the Olympics on their birthday in 2048.

Happy for them. I’m sorry I snapped when this was brought up. I’m really sensitive on this subject having been that skinny chick whose weight first showed up as a tummy bulge. I’m beyond being mistaken for pregnant at this point as I’m no longer the skinny chick.

Yeah none of us are. It’s not just the midsection weight, it’s like the thighs hollow out and there’s an unmistakable old-lady body happening.

I look at these lithe ice dancers week after week and hope they appreciate their own beauty. It doesn’t last forever.

Such a pretty name, and it’s so nice to see how much happiness Ashley seems to have found over the last few years.

Congrats, Ashley! Welcome to the world, Rosalie!

Love her name! Ashley shared that Starbird is her grandmother's maiden name. It also means "phoenix."

That's actually a very pretty name. Congrats to them!
