Big for a girl? I don’t think there’s much size difference between boys and girls until a few years.

I like the name. I guess her comment surprised me. I only have two boys and they were huge (10 lbs and 9 lbs) so I don’t have a girl’s weight to compare it to. However I was a big baby too, 9.5 lbs, and even now 7 lb babies are so tiny to me that it’s a little scary. My 3 week old neice is 7.5 lbs and I’m almost afraid to hold her. Are girls typically smaller than boys at birth?

I’m not surprised that the baby doesn’t have a middle name, I’m surprised that she only has one last name. Traditionally, she’d be Ava Salazar Vega.

Btw, the little boy is probably nicknamed Orsonito, “little Orson”. It would be easy to differentiate mail for father and son because they’d have partially different last names (Orson Salazar MothersName and Orson Salazar Vega).

I’m really confused! Her rep says that they’re enjoying “being at home”…but later in the article Pax references still being in the hospital (which makes sense, considering she had a C-section).

Anyway, congrats to them, and is that Ava in the picture with this post (I assume so, as the baby in the picture is wrapped in a pink blanket!)?

Oh, and I think the first and last name only thing is fine, to each his own. However, I wonder how they differentiate between Orson Sr. and Orson Jr.?

I can’t believe how much Paz looks like Penelope Cruz. They could certainly pass for twins. OMG they look so much alike!! Just had to say that and congratulations to her and her family on their new arrival! Enjoy!!

Aw, congrats. I love the pic of Paz and her newborn baby girl, very cute I think the names sound good together: Orson and Ava.

Aww, congrats to her on having a healthy baby girl, and I love the name Ava. I think it’s adorable that little Orson comes around with his “Ava,my baby!” comment. That’s adorable.
