  • Drew Barrymore Gives Birth to Baby Girl Frankie

    Drew Barrymore and husband Will Kopelman welcomed their second daughter on Tuesday.

    The 39-year-old Blended actress told People magazine the family was ecstatic to welcome little Frankie.

    “Happy to announce that today we are the proud parents of our second daughter, Frankie Barrymore Kopelman,” the former child star announced in a statement.

    “Olive has a new little sister, and everyone is healthy and happy!” she said.

    Barrymore’s first daughter, Olive, is now 19 months old and must be thrilled to have a baby sister.

    Barrymore tried to keep her first pregnancy on the down-low, but said people still asked her about it.

    For her second pregnancy, she was far more open about the new addition to the family by revealing the good news last November.

    “She [Olive] definitely gets it,” Barrymore told The Hollywood Reporter at the time. “She points to my stomach and goes ‘baby.’ How cool is that?”

    When she revealed that she was having another daughter, the Wedding Singer actress said she was relieved.

    “I’m relieved I’m having another girl. I have everything I need. It’s all about hand-me-downs and room sharing and all that stuff,” she told People in February about being mom to two little girls. “I’m pretty psyched about that!”

    Barrymore spoke to Wonderall a few weeks ago about her second pregnancy, juggling work and her experiences as a mom to daughter Olive.

    “They’re terribly different,” she explained at a Safe Kids Day event. “The first time you’re scared because you don’t know what’s happening. The second time is hard because you’re tired because you have a toddler.”

    Barrymore acknowledged the effort it takes to be a good mother is daunting, but says she would’t change it for the world.

    “It’s all so worth it and important,” said the former child actor.

    Barrymore and Kopelman – Barrymore’s third husband – were married in June 2012.

  • Drew Barrymore Gushes on Pregnancy, Motherhood

    As every momma knows, every pregnancy — just like every child — is a different experience.

    Drew Barrymore recently talked to Wonderall about her second pregnancy, juggling work and her experiences as a mom to daughter Olive.

    “They’re terribly different,” she explained at a Safe Kids Day event. “The first time you’re scared because you don’t know what’s happening. The second time is hard because you’re tired because you have a toddler.”

    Barrymore acknowledged the effort it takes to be a good mother is daunting, but says she would’t change it for the world.

    “It’s all so worth it and important,” said the former child actor.

    Juggling motherhood with her career as an actress and owner of her cosmetics line, Flower Beauty, keeps the Never Been Kissed actress on her toes. And like most mothers, she is learning her limitations and the sacrifices needed to be a good mother.

    “I don’t work as much,”said Barrymore. “I know I’m prolific and I take on a lot of diverse different projects, but I spend a lot of time with my kids. I think that’s the most important thing.”

    Barrymore admitted during the Safe Kids Day event to being a relatively fearful momma.

    “I’ve never been so worried in my life about making sure that something I care about more than I’ve ever cared in my life is safe and intact,” she said.

    “I try to have a sense of humor about how [much] you need to learn and tackle, and how to remain fun-loving and not, like, uptight because there’s so much to care about and to learn about.”

    The 39-year-old actress says tips from other mothers help her a great deal — some obvious, some less obvious.

    “It’s all different weird tips about like never take your eyes off your kid when they’re in the bathtub or sleep training advice — all these things I’ve picked up along the way,” she said. “I love learning all of it.”

    And just like every other momma, Barrymore seems to really enjoy experiencing the milestones of her 1-year-old girl.

    “Stairs are a big thing. We’re in constant stair training. I want her to conquer stairs early.”

    Barrymore says she has a baby name picked out for number two, but is keeping it on the down-low.

  • Drew Barrymore Wants to Have Next Baby “Right Away”

    Drew Barrymore announced that she wants to have another baby “right away” with husband Will Kopelman on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno Monday night. The couple, who married June of this year, already have a daughter, Olive, who is 1. She spelled out her vision of her perfect family to Jay,

    “I grew up as an only child, and although that really works for some people and for some parents that’s the way they want to do it…I want to be the Griswolds,” she said, referring to the fictional family from National Lampoon’s Vacation franchise. “I want the kids in the back rolling their eyes at mom and dad. I want Rusty and Audrey, theme parks and the whole nine.”

    The star of “Big Miracle” and founder of Flower Cosmetics said she would get pregnant right away if it were up to her. But for right now, Drew and her husband are enjoying watching their first child grow up, according to E! online.

    “She says a lot of words,” Barrymore gushed. “I mean, we all want to believe our kids are smart — and we should – and she’s smart!”
    The proud mama thinks that little Olive will start walking “next week.” “It’s so exciting!” she said.

    Buzz has been flying around the web that Barrymore may already be pregnant, which would add weight to her “right away” comments on the Tonight Show, but of course, such rumors should be taken with a boulder-sized grain of salt. Take this blip in the Daily Mail for example. Drew waited until just three months before her due date to confirm her pregnancy with Olive, so it’s likely no one will know for sure for quite some time.

  • Drew Barrymore’s Daughter Will Be Cutest Kid Ever

    Drew Barrymore has been adorable for as long as she’s been alive. She’s blonde (most of the time), she’s perky, she talks out of the corner of her mouth in an oddly endearing affectation, she’s perpetually happy. There’s no way her kid won’t inherit some of those traits.

    Barrymore gave birth to Olive on September 26th and said she and husband Will Kopelman are feeling very blessed.

    “We are proud to announce the birth of our daughter, Olive Barrymore Kopelman, born September 26th, healthy, happy and welcomed by the whole family,” the couple said in a statement. “Thank you for respecting our privacy during this most special time in our lives.”

    There haven’t been any official pictures of Olive yet, and considering Drew is pretty private it’s likely there won’t be any for a while. We’ll just have to content ourselves with watching old footage of her mama being cute.
