Alison Sweeney Expecting a Girl

Monday July 21, 2008
According to OK! Magazine and several other sources, Alison Sweeney (Sami) and her husband Dave Sanov have recently revealed that they are expecting a girl. As previously reported, Alison broke the joyous news about her pregnancy to her Season 6 castmates of The Biggest Loser on Monday, June 23. She is due on January 20, 2009. Of course Alison and Dave are very excited about the addition of a little girl to their beautiful family. When Alison was asked if she and her husband were discussing possible names, she joked, "It's a battle we're both waging."

Alison has told her three-year-old son, Ben, that she's pregnant and has showed him ultrasound pictures of his little sister. The lovely actress has also received sound advice from The Biggest Loser trainers Bob Harper and Jillian Michaels regarding her workouts.

Congratulations go out to Alison, Dave, and Ben on the wonderful news!

Congradulations to Alison and Dave from me as well.

Hey, I have a question about Days. I was just wondering if Days was still going to air at it’s regular time during the Olympics ? It comes on at 1pm where I live. Sometimes if I miss it at 1pm I will watch it on Soapnet whenever I can. I wish Soapnet would put Days back on at 7pm.

So, we’ll be having a new prez the same day that Allison has her baby. Tis reminiscent of when Lucille Ball gave birth to Little Ricky on “I Love Lucy” and her real son, Dezi Jr. (by cecerian birth) the night before President Eisenhower’s first inaguration. When the prez saw Dezi Jr. for the first time, he said:

“So here’s the little man who knocked me off the front page!!”

Hmmmm…I wonder if they’ll work her pregnancy into the storyline? Maybe the one night she slept with E.J. will have gotten her pregnant? That would be good….
