Laila Ali Is Expecting A Girl!

Expectant mom Laila Ali was photographed returning a pair of boots at a baby store in Woodland Hills on Thursday (December 16).

While blogging for Us, Laila - who is expecting her second child with husband
Curtis Conway in early April 2011 - announced the gender and name of her baby-to-be:

I am so excited and pleased to announce that I am having a girl! Her name will be Sydney J. Conway.

Already mom to 2-year-old son Curtis Muhammad Conway Jr., Laila went on to talk about her pregnancy,

I've even started buying little outfits for her when I spy them in the sale section. However, exerting self-control at the sale rack is like trying to exert self-control around all of the cookies, cakes, gift baskets and sweets that seem to be everywhere right now! But I fight the urge as much as I can. To help maintain my self-control, I allow myself a "cheat day" on Saturdays when I can eat whatever I want. I'm not talking about a nibble of this or that, but literally whatever I want. I love Saturdays!"
