Parks and Recreation star Amy Poehler and husband Will Arnett, star of Arrested Development and Fox’s upcoming Running Wilde, became parents to their second child today–a boy, Abel James Arnett, joining older brother Archie, two years old.
Happy birthday, Abel! Not many infants can say that both their parents are hilarious stars of hit TV shows who are both up for Emmys in a couple weeks. But you can. If you could talk, that is.
Poehler, who’s up for a lead comedy actress Emmy for Parks, recently joked about her Emmy “routine” to The Hollywood Reporter: “I am going to have a baby a couple weeks before. I do it every year. I get my hair and nails done, I get a facial, I have a baby and then I go to the Emmys.”
Arnett is nominated for a guest actor Emmy for his role as Devon Banks on 30 Rock.
Now we just need to bide our time until the announcement of Archie and Abel Arnett’s first comedy project. How’s Fall 2012 sound? That should give little Abel enough time to learn how to talk. The sense of humor will come naturally.

Meghan hails from Walla Walla, WA, the proud home of the world’s best sweet onions and Adam West, the original Batman. An avid grammarian and over-analyzer, you can usually find her thinking too hard about plot devices in favorites like The Office, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and How I Met Your Mother. In her spare time, Meghan enjoys drawing, shopping, trying to be funny (and often failing), and not understanding the whole Twilight thing. She’s got a BA in English and Studio Art from Whitman College, which makes her a professional arguer, daydreamer, and doodler.
