It’s a family field trip for rocker Pete Wentz, who accompanied wife Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and 11-month-old son Bronx Mowgli on a shopping trip in Hollywood on Saturday.
“I think for the first nine months Mom is so essential,” Pete said last week. “When they start hanging out with Dad more you’re like, ‘Wow I feel like a dad.’ You go to music class and do fun stuff together, it’s cool.”
Bronx is such a cute chunky baby! I love his cheeks! Pete’s hair looks good short too!

I agree- I like Pete’s hair shorter much better!
I think it’s funny to see such a chunky baby with such skinny parents. Seems like an oxy-moron, lol!
Not a fan of Ashlee’s jeans, though.

That is one chubba-wubba baby! So funny, they are both small and here is this BIG baby…same with Jessica Alba, she is so tiny and has this huge chubby baby Honor. Love it!
He’s a cute boy. I can’t decide who he looks like though, mom or dad?

Urban we must have had the same thought at the same time! I swear your comment wasn’t there before I submitted mine! LOL
Also, Amy…I’m an Oregonian too!

i can see a lot more of Pete in Bronx, now that his hair is short.

I like this family! Bronx is a cutie and his parents seem to adore him! I so expected him to have jet black hair for some reasonand look at this blondie! He is a big baby for 2 small people! Wonder how many kids they will have! Pete says they want a soccer team!

Bronx is such a cutie! I love his Oscar the Grouch tee.

Sheilz – I remember reading in a magazine somewhere that Jessica comes from a family of “chunky” women, so she plans her diet carefully since she was chubby as a kid and is prone to obesity. Hard to believe huh?

Wow Bronx is one big baby!

Formula makes for chunky babies.
- babyrama on
My first was formula fed, and under average for weight.
My second was all booby, and 90th percentile for weight.
So formula CAN make for chunky babies…but so can booby.

I love Pete’s hair short, I really didn’t like his hair before. What a sweet little boy.

babyrama- Ashlee breastfeed Bronx for at least a few months (not sure if she still is or not). 
- CelebBabyLover on
A lot of the chunkiest babies I know are breastfed. At the same time, my daughter was on formula occasionally after 6 months and full time from 9-12 months, and she is still a skinny minnie at 16 months old. So formula does not always mean a baby will be chunky. Although it is still way yuckier and less nutricious than breast milk!
Bronx is such a cutie. He’s one of those babies I do’t feel looks like either parent. I wonder if maybe there’s a relative on one of thier sides of the family that he looks more like. I just don’t personally see Ashlee or Pete in him at all! But man, is he precious!!!!

I find the “formula makes for chunky babies” amusing. My neighbor’s kid is breastfed and a beast! He’s in the 95th percentile for height and weight. My daughter is on formula and only in the 5th percentile. So, it’s definitely not “formula makes for chunky babies.” Otherwise my kid wouldn’t struggle to gain, right? And did anyone hear the story of the 4 month old who was denied insurance because he was over the 95th percentile? He is exclusively breastfed. Think before speaking. Enough with vilifying those of us who use formula.

It depends on the baby.
I know a slew of breastfed babies who range from chunky to slender. The same goes for those who are formula fed.
- Liliana on
Actually, breastfed babies tend to be much larger than average for the first 6 months or so, then they’ll thin out a bit. Although, I don’t see the point of discussing it on this post since I don’t think we know how Bronx is fed.
- Ashlyn on
For the record- Bronx is now formula fed (Ashlee commented about it a few months ago) and he was breastfed when he was younger.
Formula or breastmilk can lead to chunky babies, it doesn’t matter. It’s all about the child’s make-up.
- urbanadventurertales on
I doubt Ashlee is still breastfeeding since she goes out n parties a lot…i’m sure many have heard the stories…
Not bashing them I think they are great parents who adore their little chunker..just saying, he is too cute!!
- Lady on
Lady, I haven’t heard the stories so I’m not aware of what you are saying.
- Liliana on
That is one chunky baby…cute though! Makes me wanna (la la) tickle his little chubby leg.
- ljc on
awwwwwwwwwwwwwww how cute is he!!!!! my baby boo is 1 and half his size lol and was bottle fed from 6 months if it makes a diffrence lol …..i love me some chunky babys xxx so cute xxxxx
- hayley on
i love them! they are so cute. but i have never seen jess out with bronx and the fam.
- Lauren on
Lauren- She probably likes to spend her time with her her sister’s family in private.
Liliana- I haven’t either, and unless they came from PEOPLE (which I doubt, as I subscribe to PEOPLE and read their website daily…and haven’t see anything about Ashlee partying a lot) or another reliable source, I’m not buying them!
