"I know how excited Pete and Ash have been [in] anticipation of this moment. Uncle Travie's ready to babysit the little guy, he's gonna be the greatest rapper alive by age 5 if I have my way!!!"/ppFall Out Boy guitarist Joe Trohman also chimed in with a message for the happy couple, writing that he can't wait to meet Bronx when he flies out to Los Angeles next week./pp"Whenever a friend is about to have a baby, you just hope it'll come out healthy, with all its fingers and toes. It seems like this baby not only came out healthy, but with a little personality to boot. That made me smile, and laugh a bit. I'm nothing but ecstatic for Pete and Ash," Trohman wrote. "I'm literally on the other side of the country, and am still in some sort of shock. I guess it'll hit me in a few days when I head off to Los Angeles, and perhaps meet the little man for the first time. Either way, this is a big deal, and I don't think I have anything to say that can really encompass how important this is to everyone, including myself. Salud, Pete Wentz! You're a dad, and I think dads are pretty damn cool. I'm jealous (in a loving way)."/pp"Bronx is beyond precious," Ashlee's sister Jessica told a href="http://www.usmagazine.com/news/jessica-simpson-bronx-is-beyond-precious" target="othersite"Usmagazine.com/a in a statement.

"Just to let you know, I am having a custom purple hoodie made with a special baby-proof bling gold chain with my face in it."/ppAnd it didn't take long for someone to take a dig at young Bronx Mowgli's rather, uh, a href="http://newsroom.mtv.com/2008/11/21/is-bronx-mowgli-wentz-the-best-celebrity-baby-name-ever/"iunique/i name/a, either. Of course, it was all done with much love./pp"We couldn't be happier for Pete and Ashlee. When I first heard the kid's name, I thought it was a new Fall Out Boy song title," wrote Bob McLynn, co-owner of Crush Management, which reps FOB. "I'm hoping he sings more like his mother than his father though."/ppi[This story was originally published at 4:45 pm E.T. on 11.21.2008]/i/p/pbRelated Artists/bullia type="relatedArtist"href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/simpson_jessica/artist.jhtml"Jessica Simpson/a/lilia type="relatedArtist"href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/simpson_ashlee/artist.jhtml"Ashlee Simpson/a/lilia type="relatedArtist"href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/gym_class_heroes/artist.jhtml"Gym Class Heroes/a/lilia type="relatedArtist"href="http://www.mtv.com/music/artist/fall_out_boy/artist.jhtml"Fall Out Boy/a/li/ulbr style="clear: both;"/a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?p=1"img alt="" style="border: 0;" border="0" src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?p=1"//aimg src="http://www.pheedo.com/feeds/tracker.php?i=10f4c39b3a5d22a0aa971a3965181be7" style="display: none;" border="0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/MTVNewsLatest/~4/461242043" height="1" width="1"/
