A match made in music heaven, American Idol season one finalist Tamyra Gray and her husband, songwriter and producer Sam Watters, are passing their talent along to the next generation with the arrival of their first child together, due July 14.

“We’re really excited,” former Color Me Badd member Watters, 39, told PEOPLE Moms & Babies at the ASCAP Expo in Los Angeles Friday.

“We don’t know what the sex is yet. We’re waiting to be surprised. I would love a girl, but I think it’s a boy. We’ll see if I’m right.”

Though Gray, 30, struggled with extreme exhaustion at the beginning of her pregnancy, Watters — who has an 11-year old son from his previous marriage — says she’s now doing great.

“She’s doing yoga all the time and she eats real healthy.”

After learning they were expecting baby no. 2, Rascal Flatts‘ Joe Don Rooney and his wife, Playboy Playmate Tiffany Fallon, were eager for the next step: finding out the sex of their second child.

Her bet? Another boy. His bet? Their first girl. Looks like Dad wins this round!

“I had in my head that we were having two boys,” says Fallon, who admits to being a bit of a “tomboy” herself, tells PEOPLE exclusively.

“I think Joe Don was really hoping for a girl –  and he got his wish!”

“He said to me, ‘That marks the first time I’ve ever been right.’ So I’ll have to give him credit for that one,” Fallon, 35, laughs.

“It would have been just fine either way but this evens out the playing field at the house! There will be a little more estrogen at the table,” notes Fallon of their male-dominated home led by Rooney, 34, and their 23-month-old son Jagger Donovan.

“For me it’s always easier to find out the sex of your baby because it allows you to wrap your head around the pregnancy. It kind of brings it home a little bit more.”

Kimora Lee Simmons Declares Herself a ‘Mogul Mom’

Michael Tran/FilmMagic

With three kids, a fashion line and a reality show, Kimora Lee Simmons knows just what it takes to balance it all.

“I don’t hit a wall because after being in the business for 15 years, I’m a well-oiled machine. I run a fashion empire and I have kids — I’m a mogul mom,” the May L.A. Confidential cover girl explains.

While she has been known to simply pack up and go — “I say, ‘Everybody, let’s load up the car and do what we have to do!’” — Simmons insists children Ming, 10, Aoki, 7½, and Kenzo, 10 months, remain her first priority, a strategy that only betters her business.

“Successful businesspeople are all about multitasking and running their empires as well as running their families. Your family is your biggest empire.”

You and your baby can sleep (and breathe) easy thanks to the new eco-friendly nursery sleep system from Nook.

Unlike other baby bedding on the market — which often has traces of toxins — each piece is made of chemical-free organic and natural fibers that are super safe.

But it isn’t just the materials that are impressive. The highlight is the design. Made with natural latex and naturally fire-resistant organic wool, the Pebble Mattress ($550) is soft, yet sturdy. The removable mattress cover features a cool and innovative pebble design that increases air flow, which means more restful naps for baby. It’s also machine-washable, as well as, stain-, water- and microbe-resistant.

Nook’s other baby bedding accessories include an eucalyptus and organic cotton blend fitted sheet ($60), a nap sack ($48), an organic combed cotton blanket ($74) and a toddler pillow ($38).
