Those royals are just crankin' them out left, right, and center...and good on 'em for it! The first round of babies are growing up fast so now they've got some more young 'uns to snuggle and love on. :-)

Congrats to her and her family. Pippa is not a Royal but is related to a royal, her sister and brother-in-law.

Yes, it's Grace Elizabeth Jane Matthews, 6 lbs., 7 oz.

Grace's middle names are a nod to her grandmothers, Carole Elizabeth Middleton and Jane Matthews. Elizabeth might also be a subtle acknowledgement of the family's royal ties.

Pippa and Kate really are living the life right now. My sister and I had kids at the same time. So much fun for us and the cousins. Love the name.

Pippa and her sister both have a middle name of Elizabeth, so seems more like a family tradition.

Lovely news! Only a few days ago I read that she was pregnant for the second time.

I very much like the names she and her husband chose for their children. "Arthur" is a handsome and strong name for a boy, and I have a weakness for the name "Grace." It has meanings on several levels that move me.

If it hasn't already, I hope Grace has a resurgence of popularity.

I just saw pictures of her and Arthur on scooters a few days ago. I didn't know she was that close to delivering.

It's nice that she had a girl. Grace is such a pretty name, it's always been one of my favorites.

I thought Pippa's middle name was Charlotte. Does she have more than one?

Pippa is Charlotte and Kate is a Elizabeth.

Very nice! More kids, more joy! They ( Middletons) seem like a nice, normal, stable family. At least no drama there. Loving parents is a very important thing

I love the name Grace, I think it's beautiful

Congratulations to the entire Middleton family.

I think it is wonderful that Pippa and her husband had a girl. One of each is always nice if you are lucky enough to get it. Grace Elizabeth Jane is a lovely name for the new baby.

And of course since my name is Elizabeth, it always makes me feel good when I hear a new baby now also has that name, even if it is a middle name. Looking forward to seeing pictures of Grace.

As the poster "sanna" mentioned, the Middleton family appear to be a nice, normal , stable family with no drama. Of course I believe we all agree it is the healthiest atmosphere in which to raise children.
