Flynet

Sitting poolside in a chic white bikini last week, Trista Sutter proved she’s more than regained her body after baby.

But all eyes were on the former Bachelorette‘s daughter Blakesley Grace.

The adorable 11-month-old rocked the super cute Daisy Dot One-Piece ($22.75) by Gymboree.

We love the shoulder bows and the floral polka dot print — both are a sweet touch!

She also wore the matching Daisy Swim Cover-Up ($26.75). Talk about put-together!

Love her swim-ready outfit? Make sure to check out the fun Daisy Dot Flip Flops ($14.75) too!

Wrapped up in a  cozy coat, Naomi Watts takes her equally bundled-up son, 2 ½-year-old Alexander ‘Sasha’ Pete, for a stroll in New York Thursday.

Thankfully, the weekend has brought warmer weather!

Life with three boys — including younger son Samuel Kai, 14 months, and fiancé Liev Schreiber — keeps the actress on her toes.

“Oh yeah, there’s a lot of testosterone,” Naomi, 41, confesses. “I know — I’m desperate. In Australia, all my girlfriends, we come together and take up a lot of space.”

See more photos in their family photo album.

Little Big Town Couple Welcomes Son Elijah Dylan

Little Big Town just got a little bigger.

Band members Karen Fairchild and Jimi Westbrook welcomed their first child, a son, on Friday, Mar. 5th in Nashville, Tenn.

Baby Elijah Dylan Westbrook weighed 7 lbs., 14 oz., and was 19 and ¾ inches long, the couple tell PEOPLE exclusively.

“We’ve been waiting for this for a long time and can’t tell you how thrilled and blessed we both feel,” says Karen, who says Westbrook is a “natural” at fatherhood.

“Karen is going to be an incredible mom,” says Jimi of his wife, who had earned a degree in early childhood education before pursuing a music career. “She has always been so good with children. Besides, she’s done a great job raising me to become a responsible adult!”

Parenting advice for Karen, 42, and Jimi, 39 — who tied the knot in 2006 — will be close at hand. Bandmates Kimberly Roads Schlapman and Phillip Sweet already each have daughters — Kimberly is mom to Daisy Pearl, 2 ½, with husband Stephen, and Phillip is dad to 2-year-old Penelopi Jane with wife Rebecca. The toddlers are veterans of the touring life, having hit the road with the country quartet soon after they were born.

“Our hearts are bursting with joy for Karen and Jimi,” says Kimberly. “We have dreamed of this moment with them for a long time. We can’t wait to welcome another little angel onto our bus.”

Elijah will need to get packing soon, since the quartet, whose single, “Little White Church” from their upcoming album will be released to radio next week, are on the road again in May, joining Montgomery Gentry, Jamey Johnson and Jack Ingram on the Country Throwdown Tour.

Family Comes First for Don Cheadle

A couple for nearly 20 years, Don Cheadle and Bridgid Coulter have defied the Hollywood relationship odds.

In a new interview with PARADE, the 45-year-old actor — dad to daughters Ayana Tai, 14, and Imani, 12 ½ — says that his happy family life is no accident.

“I am somebody who really does want to make sure my relationship stays together and that I am there for the important parts of my kids’ life,” he explains.

Acutely aware that his popularity with the girls will slip as they age, Don says he is making the most of today.

“There’s going to be a time where they’ll be like, ‘Please go away for three months and do a movie.’ But while they’re still like, ‘Daddy, I want you here,’ then I want to deliver for them. So it’s a juggling act. It’s really tricky. But it’s worth everything it takes.”

Don’s new film Brooklyn’s Finest is in theaters now.

Exclusive: Meet Willie Garson's New Son Nathen!

Christa Renee for PEOPLE for use on CBB

As Stanford Blatch, Carrie Bradshaw’s gay confidant on Sex and the City, Willie Garson was always unlucky in love.

But that all changed the day the actor, whose paternal clock had begun ticking loudly, met the boy who would become his son.

Attending an L.A. adoption fair in Oct. 2008, Willie spotted a vivacious 7-year-old named Nathen.

“He has a spark. He was balancing himself on a curb, and I was like, ‘That’s my kid,’” says Willie. “I knew it right then.”

Now everyone does. After more than a year of screenings and paperwork, Nathen, now 8, was officially deemed Willie’s son in January.

While Willie’s career is soaring — he stars in the hit USA drama White Collar and appears in this summer’s Sex and the City movie sequel — it’s clear that his new family life is what’s keeping the actor, 46, in a constant state of bliss.

Says a beaming Willie: “It couldn’t have gone any better.”

The couple is “ecstatic,” says Annie, who plays Renee Walker opposite Kiefer Sutherland on the show.

“Feeling great” during her pregnancy, Annie, 32, notes that she’s “craving mint chocolate chip ice cream!”

The couple married at their Los Angeles home in Sept. 2009.
