Kristen Bell Tweets About Baby Girl Lincoln, Compares Daughter to a "Pre-Sobriety" Dax Shepard
Us Weekly – 1 hour 19 minutes ago.. .

Like father, like daughter? Kristen Bell's baby girl, Lincoln Bell Shepard, is still very, very new to the world, but she's already taking after dad Dax Shepard. On Thursday, March 28, shortly after the Parenthood actor broke the news of Lincoln's birth, Bell took to Twitter with a joke about her little bundle of joy.

"My new roomate poops her pants and doesn't pay rent...basically Dax Shepard pre-sobriety," the House of Lies actress quipped. "Welcome baby Lincoln xo."

Shepard, 38, heralded his daughter's birth via Twitter just an hour before Bell's tweet. "Lincoln Bell Shepard is here," he wrote. "She has mom's beauty and dad's obsession with breasts. Hooray!"

Lincoln is the first child for the actor and his fiancee, 32. The couple, who have been engaged since 2009, announced that they were expecting last November. Bell maintained her sense of humor throughout the pregnancy, joking that she was "367 pounds" and wanted to be knocked out during childbirth.

"I feel like, when I arrive at the hospital, I want a glass of whiskey, I want the epidural in my back and I want to get hit in the face with a baseball bat," the Veronica Mars star told Ellen DeGeneres in January. "Wake me up when it's over because I've seen the videos -- and it looks terrifying."

They are so dang cute! I was kinda hoping they would have a boy...because...you know...Dax. But it's all good.

No offense, but Lincoln Bell Shepard? Sounds like a law firm.

^^"Good afternoon, Lincoln Bell Shepard, please hold."

It's better than Apple or Peaches.

They have a cute reason for the name Lincoln.

Although Lincoln sounds like a name better fit for a bouncing baby boy, it has special meaning to the new parents, especially her daddy.

A 1967 Lincoln is the actor's other baby. The classic car – which he refers to as "Lady Lincoln" – has a star role in "Hit and Run," the 2012 film starring both Shepard and Bell, which he wrote and directed.

So which of his ladies holds the bigger place in his heart? "In no particular order, the Lincoln, then Kristen," Shepard joked last year, which got a laugh out of his fiancée sitting next to him. "Kristen is slightly harder to replace though … I've been in a 12-year committed relationship with the Lincoln."

But there's no hard feelings or jealousy on Bell's part. "She's good to me," she added. "When he said, 'I wrote a movie starring me and Lady Lincoln. Would you play a supporting female role?' I said, 'Oh, I guess.'"

i like lincoln bell, it's different without being odd. i'm really happy for them and so glad that they got that time with dax's father.

After these two making me cry last week, I'm not going to hate on them about the name. It isn't one I would have chosen, but it's not TOO terrible. And congrats to them both - All three, I guess!

If she's a Zelda fan she might want to go by Link. i know I would

[Tati]

^ I would too!

i find dax to be less annoying lately, probably because i love kristen bell and she seems pretty normal, so i figure he can't be all that awful. then, i liked 'hit and run' pretty well. he's growing up and i think that's growing on me. kristen's tweet was pretty hilarious.
