Update: Samantha Harris and daughter Josselyn in Us Weekly
Update: Additional photo and quotations added.
Originally posted December 28th: E! and Dancing With the Stars co-host Samantha Harris, 34, says daughter Josselyn Sydney, 3 months, loves to dance already.
She gets really excited when music is playing. She’ll kick her feet, move her hands and wiggle around on the [activity] mat. She loves to be talkative. I think we are in for a little girl like I was: telling stories and that make no sense and have no end in sight. She’s definitely our kid. We’re really looking forward to her giggling.
Samantha says she and husband Michael Hess are ‘really lucky.’
She is really easygoing. It’s a free-for-all. We team up for the night routine, which is a bath and a little baby-lotion massage, and we alternate who feeds her. (Samantha pumps milk for Michael to give.) When I do, I like to sing her a song my [deceased] dad used to sing to me, ‘Sunrise, Sunset.’
One thing Samantha refuses to stress about is the preschool rush common in LA — some parents apply for preschools before their child is even on solid foods, in an attempt to beat the wait lists.
Living in LA, people talk so far ahead about it. I don’t want to be on the list five years in advance. If that’s the kind of school it is, I don’t want to be there.
Samantha and Josselyn were photographed December 18th.

Now that is the cutest baby I have seen in a while. I think she is the cutest celebrity baby so far. I love her hair. She looks like a doll for real.

I believe she’s wearing the pink stripe babylegs.
That baby girl has so much hair!! She’s beautiful!!
My 11 month old has the bald-on-top-long-in-the-back mullet. I can’t wait for the day I can put a clip in her hair!

Josselyn is such a cutie, and all that hair…precious baby girl!

That is one CUTE CUTE baby!! Love the hair. I had hair like that too when I was born but it fell out when I was 7-8 months old and then came in much lighter! I hope Josselyn keeps hers she’s gorgeous!

Stunning baby! The hair is adorable — but look at that face! Those lips, those eyes – wow!! Definitely a heartbreaker!

I think Josselyn has to be the most beautiful thing ever! cutest celeb baby for sure!

That is one HOMELY baby. Doesn’t even look like a girl. But some people will call any baby cute no matter how unfortunate looking it is…..
December 30th, 2007 at 7:33 pm
Boy, does she look like her momma or what?
Lovely little thing!!
December 30th, 2007 at 10:34 pm
LMAO, that hair is cracking me up! I don’t know if the Don King style is deliberate or not, but I know the man himself wishes he looked this cute!
Love the hair and those round little cheeks.

Cute cute cute. I love DWtS and am glad to see Samantha so happy. Her boobs look great.
Josselyn is just adorable, I love that mane.

An ADORABLE baby!! I love her name, I think there is another celeb with a baby by the same name but maybe spelled differently? I wonder if the name will become more popular again, all the Josselyn’s/Jocelyn’s I know are in their late 30’s and early 40’s!
It’s wonderful so many celebs are openly talking about nursing! I hope it has a positive effect on how young people view nursing!

How cuter can this little girl be? She looks like a natural beauty just like her mom. I love her head full of hair..just makes you want to cuddle her =).
