Elton John Fatherhood Relaxing; Orlando Bloom Carries Flynn; Jewel & Ty Expecting Boy (Photo Links)

In celebrity baby news, Elton John said that being a father is the "most wonderful feeling", Orlando Blooms carried his little bundle of joy like a proud peacock, and Jewel and Ty Murray have found out they're having a boy!

In what appears to be one of the largest baby booms in Celebrity-ville recently, fathers Elton John and Orlando Bloom are beaming and bragging.

First there's Elton John and David Furnish who are the proud parents of Zachary Jackson Levon born on Christmas Day, 2010. Elton John was talking about Zachary at a press conference for Gnomeo & Juliet (he composed the music for the animated film) and said of fatherhood, "It's been the most wonderful thing that's probably ever happened to me after meeting [husband] David."

John also said that fatherhood "is surprisingly very relaxing because this little soul that you are feeding, changing, bathing and that you're telling bedtime stories to is a blank palette, a blank canvas and all it needs is love and nurturing."

How sweet is that?

It would be right up there with Orlando Bloom who took his new baby Flynn for a stroll recently. Bloom carried his son as protectively as a mother hen while the pride showed even behind the dark sunglasses.

And finally, there's parents-to-be Jewel and Ty Murray who recently told People they are expecting a little boy as well.

Jewel and Ty have tried for over two years to become pregnant so that news itself far outweighs the sex of their child. Jewel told People, "We would have been happy either way, of course, but we are so excited to be having a little boy."

Ty, on the other hand, was more obvious about the news of having a boy. "I have to admit, I was doing a little dance on our way out of the doctor's office when we found out!"
