Marcia Cross welcomes twin girls!

Marcia Cross, 44, and her husband Tom Mahoney welcomed fraternal twin girls, Eden and Savannah, on Tuesday in Los Angeles. Marcia's rep says, "Mother and babies are all doing well."

The girls arrived about 6 weeks early (not unusual in multiples pregnancies). Marcia had been on bedrest since early January.

(In Touch Magazine had it right.)

That is great news! I hope that the girls are okay considering that they are like 6 weeks early. I also hope that they come out with Marcia's red hair!!

Posted by: Dominique at Feb 21, 2007 5:51:29 PM

What lovely names. Different, but in a nice unique way not in a bizarre way...!

Posted by: Lynserella at Feb 21, 2007 6:04:53 PM

Congrats to them! I knew she wasn't going to make it till April looking at those recent pics.

The names are a little too soap opera for my taste, but they make a cute sib set nonetheless. :)

Congratulations on this wonderful blessing. I hope both baby girls are ok considering their early arrive. My thoughts are with Marcia and Tom.

Posted by: Gabbie13 at Feb 21, 2007 6:13:51 PM

CONGRATS!!!! LOVE the names!! My ex sister in law had her twin boys 6 weeks early and they were just fine. They caught up developmentally by about a year.

Posted by: tink1217 at Feb 21, 2007 6:19:53 PM

AWW YAY I have been waiting to hear about Marcia! And two little girls--how exciting for them! I am so happy for Marcia and Tom--I ADORE the names and can you just imagine how stunning those girls are going to be? CONGRATS to the proud parents !

Posted by: Megan at Feb 21, 2007 6:29:54 PM

They are really early! But those are nice names! And she has girls!( sorry Tom, hehe). just a joke!

Posted by: Callen at Feb 21, 2007 7:07:12 PM

I love those names especially Eden! Congrats to the happy couple! Finally a celeb who hasn't gone off the wall with the baby names!

Posted by: joy at Feb 21, 2007 7:11:37 PM

Congratulations to Marcia and her husband. Weren't the girls due in April or something like that? I hope all is well with the whole family.

Posted by: Josie K at Feb 21, 2007 7:12:22 PM

(Winks)

Posted by: Laura at Feb 21, 2007 7:14:10 PM

awww. congrats to Marcia and her husband. I just knew she was gonna have twin girls. I bet they are sooo cute.

Posted by: Mary at Feb 21, 2007 7:20:07 PM

Aww congrats to Marcia. Love her on DH!

Those names are so Wisteria Lane in some ways, love them!

Posted by: S. at Feb 21, 2007 7:40:00 PM

Aw cute names! My twins were born at 34 weeks also and they were just fine. I hope her girls are too.

Posted by: Megan at Feb 21, 2007 7:51:58 PM

awwwww congrats! i thought she was gonna have a boy and a girl...but this is super cool!! I am still curious if these are her biological kids or not since she had trouble getting pregnant. not that it matters..i just have wondered that.

Posted by: Rye at Feb 21, 2007 9:19:45 PM

That is wonderful news! I bet Marcia's
castmates are thrilled for her. How exciting.

Posted by: Karen at Feb 21, 2007 9:20:36 PM

Congrats to Marsha! As a twin mama myself, I have to respond to the part of the post that says 6 weeks early is "normal for multiples." About 50% of twins are early, meaning before 37 weeks. Coming 6 weeks early might be more common for multiples, but premature is premature and it shouldn't be trivialized. In addition I wish that more people were aware of the fact that some twins are born at term. Mine came at 40w3d. Lots of twin moms end up induced at 36 weeks because there has come to be this idea that twins never go to term anyway.

OK, steppng off my soapbox now! Welcome Eden and Savannah!!

Posted by: Jenny at Feb 21, 2007 9:34:29 PM

Congrats to Marcia and Tom. I love their little girls' names. Can't wait to see some pics. I'm pretty sure one, if not both, will be a redhead.

Posted by: Mary at Feb 21, 2007 10:05:30 PM

aww, congrats! I predicted she was going to have a boy and a girl, but two girls is great. The names are so her style too, esp. Savannah.

Posted by: Heather at Feb 21, 2007 10:18:55 PM

Congratulations to Marcia and Tom!! What beautiful names for what I am assuming are beautiful little girls. Can't wait to see them.

Posted by: CaliAngel at Feb 21, 2007 10:24:15 PM

Aww, congratulations to Marsha and Tom! I adore the name Eden (Though I am biased; it is my niece's name!), but Savannah...ehh, not so much.

Posted by: Candice at Feb 21, 2007 11:21:12 PM

Aww, that's nice to hear she's had the twins! The names are alright, but not my favourites - But all that matters is that they are healthy, and here.

Posted by: Aura at Feb 22, 2007 12:01:46 AM

i swear some other celebrity also has twin girls named that, i just can't remember who. they're beautiful names though, congrats to the new parents!

Posted by: stephanie at Feb 22, 2007 1:41:19 AM

Beautiful names, especially Eden.
A lot of celebrities get twins!

Posted by: Sanne at Feb 22, 2007 1:51:24 AM

Stephanie, you may be thinking of Shedaisy's Kesli who had twin girls last year named Savannah and Adyson.

Posted by: Aura at Feb 22, 2007 3:11:16 AM

Congrats to Marcia! I love the name Eden, is very cute, in my opinion. I just want to know the babies' hair color ahahah.

Posted by: Ana at Feb 22, 2007 5:52:17 AM

oh my god, those names have been my favourite for years....that's amazing!!!

Posted by: gala at Feb 22, 2007 6:16:28 AM

Whoopeeee!!Congrats!Hope they're all fine!Beautiful names for I am sure beautiful babies!

Posted by: popi at Feb 22, 2007 9:36:48 AM

Congrats to Marcia and her husband. I'm sure the babies are just fine. People make too big a deal out of twins coming early nowadays. My sister and I were born 6 weeks early 25 years ago. While my sister weighed 3 pounds, I weighed 6 pounds. Neither of us had to stay in the hospital any longer than full term babies and we were never developmentally slow or behind the curve. I'm sure everything will be great.

Posted by: Lauren at Feb 22, 2007 9:50:40 AM

Congrats to them! Eden and Savannah are wonderful names!

Posted by: Corinne at Feb 22, 2007 10:18:14 AM

Congrats to the new parents! I love the names. Finally a celeb that decided to go "normal". She is such a private person I wonder how soon before we see pics.

Posted by: dream_faerie76 at Feb 22, 2007 11:01:40 AM

Love the names - esp Eden. Congrats to the new parents on the healthy babies. It must be really an amazing day for Marcia, because she thought she would never get to give birth to kids. Happy news!

Posted by: PSB at Feb 22, 2007 11:55:52 AM

I like the names. They sound cool and contemporary without being crazy.

Posted by: antij1 at Feb 22, 2007 1:35:09 PM

Congrats to Marcia and Tom! Two little girls, how lovely. I love the names Eden and Savannah, they are very pretty.

Posted by: Angela at Feb 22, 2007 3:16:15 PM

Congrats to the new parents! I'm pretty sure that Marcia used donor eggs. Eden is okay. Savannah is not my style.

Posted by: alexi at Feb 22, 2007 11:04:29 PM

Gorgeous names. My two also arrived at 34 weeks. Now the fun really begins!

Posted by: Linda at Feb 23, 2007 12:06:49 PM

Fab news, but I dont think they will have mummys red hair as they used donnor eggs....but you never know !!

Posted by: louise at Feb 23, 2007 12:56:25 PM

Louise, I think you can choose the "look" of an egg donor the same way women choose specific qualities of a sperm donor...maybe they will have red hair!

Posted by: SY at Feb 24, 2007 8:42:37 PM

Congrats!! I love the names of your babies! Enjoy your special bundles of joy!
