Ana Ortiz is thinking blue for baby number two!

The former Ugly Betty star and husband Noah Lebenzon are expecting their second child, the couple tell Latina.

High on the list of contenders? Names that work in both English and Spanish, much like the one given to daughter Paloma Louise, 23 months.

Talk about hot mamas! As Sarah Jessica Parker, Elle MacPherson and Claudia Schiffer prove, school runs are just as stylishly important as a red carpet event or the catwalk.

On May 19, the Sex and the City star wore a Parisian-chic ensemble (open weave striped sweater layered over a Gerard Darel floral print dress and bow-accented python flats) for her morning walk with son James Wilkie, 8½.

While model moms MacPherson (May 3) and Schiffer (May 17) — whose children go to the same West London school — opted for easy jeans (flared and skinny) paired with brightly-colored tops and sunglasses.
