Baby Mama Amy Poehler Gave Birth Saturday
Appropriately, the comedian from Saturday Night Live has given birth to a healthy baby boy on a Saturday. You can almost imagine her SNL friends say “Live From New York — Amy Poehler and her baby!”. In fact, while Saturday Night Live was airing, Amy’s co-anchor on the Weekend Update announced to the audience that Amy was having her baby at that moment. The crowd cheered.
The baby, whom Amy and her husband actor Will Arnett will call as Archie, weighed 8 lbs., 1 oz.
The 37 year old Amy isn’t going to return as regular on Saturday Night Live after her maternity leave. But she will still be returning to television as the star of her new comedy series for NBC. Her new show, which remains untitled to this day, will be set for a mid-season airing early next year.
