Michelle has big news... Click through to the blog post to read it!
In a wonderful example of life imitating art, Michelle had a little girl (7 pounds 3 ounces) on Friday April 1st at 6:55PM.
Please note: we will not be having a contest to name this baby... Mara Carmen already has a lovely name!
So, if you would like to offer your congratulations and best wishes, this is the place!
+++UPDATE+++
You asked for it, you got it!
A reply From Michelle Morgan!!!!!
===============
Hi Everyone,
Thank you so much for all your messages. Mara, me and Derek (her Daddy) are all doing very well. She is beautiful little girl with sandy brown hair (I think the summer will make her blonde) and blue eyes. She has a huge appetite, which makes me happy but also keeps me up all night :P
Anyways, Mara will be coming with me to work on the next season of Heartland, so she will basically grow up on set. She will truly be a Heartland baby.
Thanks again everyone, and Mara says what's up!
-Michelle and Mara
P.S. Here are a couple of pics:
and she had this to add, in response to a few questions:
It's Michelle again, I noticed everyone keeps asking about the significance of the name Mara Carmen so I thought I should explain. Mara was my Grandmother's name, so that's simple. Carmen is a special name for me. I was born on the feast day of the Virgin Mary del Carmen (In english she's sometimes called the Virgin of Mount Carmel). Then when I was 6 months pregnant and on a vacation in Portugal I had to go the hospital and I was really worried for the baby. I was passing by a little church and I quickly said "If the baby is okay I will name her after this church". Turns out the church was dedicated to the Virgin Mary, so Derek and I chose Carmen. The next day we went into the church and saw a big statue of the the Virgen del Carmen inside, so it seemed right. That's the story of her name.

===============
**And everyone, just to clarify, because there seems to be a ton of confusion around this: Mara will not be appearing on Heartland. The role of Lou and Peter's baby (when required) will be played by a set of twins. Michelle means that Mara will be around behind the scenes while Michelle is working.

Is there any significance to the name?
Does the letters in the name stand for anything?
Is the baby named after anyone specific?
Please post pictures on your website with your name if you can so we can all see her or at least under your name on this site.
At least you'll have 6 months to practice being a mom before Season 5 starts filming. That's good!

April fools? Hahah just kidding! I know you will be an amazing mom! I saw you with a little girl at the Heartland Charity Hockey Game. It looked like you were a natural with kids! Oh, and I love the name Mara, it probably suits her very well!
Congratulations and good luck.

Congratulations Michelle!
That is amazing news an a beautiful name. I must take this time to tell you that i love keeping up with your twitter page and blog! Your an amazing actress and i know you will make a wonderful loving mother.
I wonder if your baby girl will be who plays your baby in Heartland, that would be quite cool and exciting and im sure there would be an incredible bond! I guess well soon find out about season five!
Anyways all the best! xoxo

Congrats Michelle!!!!!! CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HER ON HEARTLAND!!!!
[Blog Whisperer: I think there's a misunderstanding here - you will not see her on Heartland. Michelle will be bringing her to the set, of course, but Mara is not appearing on the show.]

Congratulations on your new Baby girl,Mara what a pretty name.
Being born April fools, I'm pretty sure a little trickster will emerge. She'll give you a run for your money. Enjoy every moment...You can learn so much. Best wishes to you and your family; Marlene
I look forward to th new season
Heartland is Canada's best show, especially for families.
My mom 88 and I so enjoy the show, just about weekly
Jack is awesome as Grandpa, if he was 30 yrs. older in real life... I never did get my photo that was taken of us at Crystal Plamondon's DC release in Edmonton. It was on her daughters camera ..I'll have to try her daughter once more before I give up!

Hey Congratulations on your baby girl. I have always wanted a baby sister. I know you'll have tons of fun dressing her up and taking her on set. I guess that will be the hit on heartland set. So now i understand why Lou became pregnant or at least i think i know. I wish i could have won the tour of heartland set so i could see the baby. Who will be watching the baby while you are shooting. How does it feel to have "three" babies at once? Anyway i wish you and your family the best. I thanked God the baby was alright. You and your Family are in our prayers.
P.S. Make sure Michelle Morgan reads this.Thanks

may your new joy into this world be a blessed one.. i still think the baby on the show should be named "heart" the heart of heartland... as for yours already named.. you choose within family a name that suits the baby well.. i myself doesnt have children and may never, but you enjoy all those bumps good ones ups and downs.. and in time you will see in time the meaning of mother and child.. take care you, baby, family and heartland set family... meistroT
