Marc Anthony and J Lo share carrying the twins while in Belgium for his performance on Wednesday. Emme and Max are almost 4 months old now.

Newborn twins Maximilian David and Emme Maribel Muniz, the son and daughter of singers, Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, are already being spoiled rotten, and not just by their celebrity parents.

Not only did their birth on February 22 cost $1.4 million dollars, but since then, the twins have been gifted with a chandelier in their bedroom, piles of cashmere baby clothes and matching "rocking ducks," by Hollywood A-list well-wishers. Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria bought the twins matching old-fashioned prams worth $1,500 each. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes splashed out on outfits from French 'baby couture' company Bonpoint. And JLo's favorite designers, Dolce & Gabbana presented the twins with custom-made baby wraps made from fur!  *Just say no, JLo!*

Jennifer tells OK! magazine: "Emme is a total girl. You take off her clothes and she covers up, and her hands are very feminine. And she has more hair than him. And he is like a tank, with these little arms."

She says Max's middle name, David, comes from her father, while Emme's comes from her husband's late sister. The babies will both be known by Marc Anthony's surname, Muniz.

And the star seems to have gotten over herself a bit, claiming that she's not at all bothered by her post-baby figure. "I gained a good amount of weight, which I was focused on, because twins can sometimes have a low birth weight. I gained 45-50lbs, a lot for my frame, but for twins it's right on. It's amazing how your stomach goes boop and it's this jiggly mass. I even play with my little leftover belly." The singer says she intends to participate in a triathlon in the Fall.

"Having children is the biggest thing that can happen to a woman," gushes the new mom. "You win an Oscar, get nominated for a Golden Globe - you know, whatever things you think are big, I can't even think of anything that can match the miracle of giving birth and having your own child."

"I've been very career-orientated my whole life and very focused on my own world and my own life, and all of a sudden the focus just shifts."

Sounds like the same song sung by every mom!

Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony named their twins after cartoon characters!

It's being claimed that JLo's newborn twins, Max and Emme, were named after Max and Emmy, the animated stars of the PBS show, Dragon Tales.  Shrewd move, designed to cultivate big egos and a thirst for stardom, or mere coincidence?

You be the judge.

Meanwhile, the 39-year-old singer has reportedly hired a baby masseuse who'll have weekly sessions with Max and Emme, according to MomLogic. She's also said to have consulted a color specialist before painting the nursery in shades of blue. Max and Emme also sleep on 600-count Egyptian linens and listen to classical music!

Jennifer Lopez shows no signs of giving up her diva status–she's already spent a whopping $1.4m on giving birth to Max and Emme!

Here's the breakdown, as reported by In Touch magazine: $700,000 to reserve her luxurious 'birthing suite' at the North Shore Hospital in Long Island, for three weeks before she actually delivered; $300,000 on private doctors and nurses, $300,000 on security and $100,000 on personal assistants!

The birthing suite included white couches, a large Apple computer, a private kitchen and two flat-screen TVs.

Insiders say that Lopez has been overheard calling the new additions Maximiano and Emelina, according to the magazine. So we're guessing "Max" and "Emme" are the abbreviated versions.

Jennifer Lopez' ex, Sean Combs, plans to send the singer's newborn twins a stylish gift–a wardrobe from his clothing line, Sean John.

The 38 year actor, designer and music mogul told PEOPLE magazine: I'm so happy for her. It's such a blessing."  He added that Lopez "is going to make a great mother."

Combs is himself the father of 14-month-old twins, D'Lila Star and Jesse. He had this advice for the new mom: "It's double the love, and it's also double the crying and the screaming, so it's a unique blessed situation. It's a rarity to have twins. She'll be all right."

Meanwhile, Lopez took her four-day-old bundles of joy home from the hospital today. According to her close friend, producer Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, JLo is "very happy and blissful."

"She said, 'I can't take my eyes off of them.' " Goldsmith-Thomas says.

"She and Marc are so ready for a family. They love each other so much and built this beautiful life together. It feels like the only thing missing were these children and now they have them."

Best of luck to JLo, Mark and the twins!

Her belly was almost as big as the moon, but she's "over" it now. JLo has finally popped out those highly anticipated twins–a boy and a girl.

The $6 million-dollar duo arrived in the wee hours of Friday morning (Feb. 22) in Long Island. PEOPLE magazine reports that the girl was delivered at 12:12 am and weighed 5 lbs. 7 oz. The boy arrived 11 minutes later, weighing in at 6 lbs.

"Jennifer and Marc are delighted, thrilled and over the moon," says Lopez's manager, Simon Fields. (Is 'over the moon' now the official delivery mantra?). The twins are Jennifer's first kids. Marc already has two sons and a daughter.

Heartiest congrats (times two), you two!

Looks like the six-million-dollar twins will make their appearance soon.

FemaleFirst reports that Jennifer Lopez has (finally) checked into the North Shore University Hospital in Long Island. The 38-year-old star will deliver the babies in a private suite that's been off-limits to staff and patients for the past two weeks. The suite is fully furnished with privacy screens, a brown leather couch, wooden floors and two giant plasma TVs.

The delivery-room diva will reportedly wear a designer hospital gown during her stay. 

Staff at the hospital have been on "Code Pink" alert in case someone tries to snatch the twins.

Shiloh? $4 million. Max Liron? $2 million. Jennifer Lopez's twins? $6 million, which works out to three mil apiece. That's how much the Latina singer, 38, is being paid by People magazine for exclusive photos of the little Lopez-Anthonys, whenever they finally get here.

MSNBC reports that the British magazine, OK! also struck an undisclosed deal with the singer, for photos that will run in the magazine's 15 international editions.

Well, she has to pay for the 18 karat gilded trim in her nursery somehow.

The double bundle of joy that is Jennifer Lopez' and Marc Anthony's twins might arrive today….or tomorrow…or the next day….who knows…JLo just loves to keep us guessing.

In any case, staff at the hospital where the singer's C-section is scheduled to be performed are taking no chances. They're reportedly on "high alert" over kidnapping fears.

Sources claim the North Shore Medical Center is conducting “Code Pink” drills in case there is a kidnapping attempt when the little Lopez-Anthonys make their debut.

We told you, proud grandparents have loose lips! Thanks to Jennifer Lopez' dad, we can all retire the parenthetical references to her twin bundles of joy. The duo is scheduled to debut via C-section on Valentine's Day.

"Yes, twins," said the Latina singer's dad David Lopez in an interview on the Spanish-language show Escándalo TV. PEOPLE en Espanol reports. "The thing is in my family, my sister also had twins, so it's a hereditary thing."

Grandpa-to-be is thrilled for his daughter, who he says "has yearned to be a mother for many years." he said. 

David already has gifts picked out for the twins. "In Puerto Rico it's custom to buy an azabache [black stone] bracelet for babies to protect them from the evil eye, it's part of our culture," he said.

Jennifer Lopez is reportedly wading through applications for the title of godparent to her unborn twins.

Swamped with requests from celebrities, the 38-year-old singer has decided to "audition" the applicants to test their suitability for the role. JLo's close friend, actress Leah Remini, says she and husband, Angelo Pagan, "asked for an audition for godparent roles, so at the moment we are waiting to hear back." "We need about a day to prepare though," she adds. 

Other contenders include Spice Girls singer, Victoria Beckham and Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, producer of JLo's 2002 film 'Maid in Manhattan'. Goldsmith-Thomas recently hosted a luxurious baby shower for Lopez at New York's Gramercy Park Hotel.

Any minute now, we should be getting word that Jennifer Lopez has birthed her twin bundles of joy. The false alarms have been coming fast and furious.

Unlike a lot of the knocked-up celebs, JLo has picked out names for her babies: Max and Emme.

Star magazine is reporting that the Latina singer's mom, Guadalupe, was spotted picking up two gold-rope ID bracelets engraved with those names from Genesis Jewelers in Yorktown Heights, N.Y.  The proud grandma-to-be was overheard telling the clerk the names.

Grandparents have a knack for letting the cat out the bag, don't they?

With only weeks to go before her date with the stork, singer Jennifer Lopez held her baby shower Saturday in New York City and it was as glitzy as expected.

JLo and hubby Marc Anthony were joined by designer Roberto Cavalli and actress Leah Remini at the Gramercy Park Hotel. The room was also scattered with Swarovski crystals.

Among the gifts were a pink leopard crib by Cavalli.

Further fuelling the fraternal twin rumors, the decor was done in both pink and blue.

She may be laying "low" but J-Lo's keeping busy! The very pregnant 38-year-old singer will have her baby shower on January 22 at The Private Roof Club and Garden at the Gramercy Park Hotel in New York.

According to InTouch magazine, the baby shower is expected to be huge, with a large turnout of celebrity guests.

The queen of 'bling' will be presenting guests with a swag bag with Swarovski-encrusted baby pacifiers.

Considering Jennifer Lopez's extravagant taste, this baby shower could see some seriously big ticket gifts!

No painkillers. And absolutely no moaning, screaming or groaning! 

That's the prescription for Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony for the upcoming birth of their child (or children). The couple have reportedly decided to follow the Scientologists' birthing recommenations, which call for the elimination of all noise. According to the Sun magazine, J-Lo and Marc are keen followers of Scientology and adhere to its belief that noise in the delivery room will traumatize the child forever.

According to a friend of the 38-year-old singer, J-Lo knows it will be hard not to scream, but she "understands why it will be good for the baby to have peace and quiet.”

You know it had to be a man who came up with that idea! Let them try it! Shoot, there's good reason why our ancestors have been screaming during childbirth for millennia.
