Meet the First Baby Girl Born in Over *100 Years* to This Idaho Family

Have you ever stopped to think about the gender distribution in your family? Maybe all your cousins are boys or you only have sisters, but none of us really think about boys vs. girls, do we? The Idaho-based Underdahl family sure didn’t… That is, until mom Ashton and her husband Scott welcomed their cute-as-a-button second child — and first daughter — Aurelia, on April 12.

Coeur D’Alene Pressreports that Ashton didn’t know the gender of her baby, and she just assumed she was having a second boy. When the baby arrived and the shock wore off, her father-in-law (also parent of four sons) did some digging to find out when the last girl was born to the Underdahls. He was surprised to find only one girl, born in 1914 and named Bernice. That’s right: The Underdahl family just welcomed their first girl in 112 years. It looks like this little babe is going to be spoiled as the family explores all things baby girl from here on out.

There are no confirmed reports of Taylor Swift writing a book. However, with so many of her lyrics sounding like poetry, the final track on Midnights being called "Dear Reader," and the fact The Tortured Poets Department has so many library themes and tie-ins, Swifties are starting to wonder if a book is on its way. In fact, Reddit users are hoping for everything from a Selena Gomez cookbook collab to an art book.

@hjulrich on TikTok points out that the consistent number two references Taylor Swift has made since she announced TTPD in February could be another project instead of another album. "I think it’s a book as well," one comment agrees. "I think the book is coming out on May 2nd a fortnight after the album release." The first TTPD track is called "Fortnight" *and* Taylor's online cluesare starting to spell out "Post-Fortnight!"

The music video ends with Taylor publishing a book titled "All Too Well" and doing a special reading at the Housing Works bookstore in New York City.

Taurus is the second sign of the zodiac, falling between April 20th and May 20th. It belongs to the Earth element along with Virgo and Capricorn. Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and money, rules this sign, which makes this sign notorious for sensuality, pleasure, and the desire for aromatic experiences. Taurus is associated with stability, sensuality, determination, and practicality. Like the bull, it loves to be in calm environments and indulge in the moment with the pleasures of life and luxury.

Taurus is a fixed sign, which means that individuals born under this sign tend to be stable and unwavering. They're known for their persistence, reliability, and resistance to change. Once they set their sights on a goal or a particular way of life, they are unlikely to steer off course easily – it may take a while. This makes them the most consistent sign of the zodiac, enabling them to see through their goals at their unique pace.

How A Taurus Sees Life

Taurus individuals approach life with a grounded and practical outlook, grounded in their values of stability, security, and appreciation for simple pleasures. They have a fixed understanding that success and fulfillment often come from hard work, dedication, and perseverance.

Their practicality allows them to face challenges with resilience and determination. Fleeting trends or impulsivity do not easily sway Taurus individuals; instead, they prefer to take a steady and methodical approach to achieving their goals. They understand the value of patience and persistence, knowing that success is often the result of consistent effort over time.

At the same time, Taurus individuals have a deep appreciation for the beauty and pleasures of life. They take joy in the sensory experiences that life has to offer, whether it's indulging in delicious food, surrounding themselves with luxurious comforts, or immersing themselves in the beauty of nature. Taurus individuals understand the importance of savoring life's pleasures and finding moments of tranquility away from modern-day doom scrolling.

The bull sign approach life with a balanced perspective, valuing both stability and enjoyment. They understand the importance of hard work and dedication in achieving their goals, while also taking the time to appreciate the beauty and richness of the world around them. With their practicality, determination, and appreciation for life's simple pleasures, Taurus individuals thrive in life with a sense of purpose and fulfillment.

Taurus Personality Traits

A Taurus embodies solidity and reliability, grounded in their unwavering nature and practical approach to life. With a deep-rooted connection to the Earth element, they exude a sense of stability and dependability that others find reassuring. Their personality is a harmonious blend of strength, sensuality, and steadfastness, reflecting the influence of their ruling planet, Venus.

They delight in the sensory experiences that the world has to offer, from the taste of sumptuous cuisine to the feel of luxurious fabrics against their skin. Taurus individuals have an innate ability to find beauty every day, infusing even the most mundane moments with a touch of magic.

One of the defining traits of Taurus is their determination and perseverance. When they set their sights on a goal, they pursue it with relentless focus and dedication, refusing to be swayed by distractions or setbacks. Their tenacity is matched only by their patience, as they understand that true success often requires time and persistence.

Despite their strong-willed nature, Taurus individuals are known for their gentle and nurturing spirit. They are fiercely loyal to their loved ones, offering unquestionable support and encouragement when needed. Taurus can be relied upon in times of trouble to provide a steady shoulder to lean on and a listening ear to confide in.

However, Taurus individuals can also be stubborn at times, unwilling to compromise or yield to the demands of others. While their persistence is admirable, it can sometimes lead to conflicts or dead ends in relationships. Learning to balance their determination with a willingness to adapt and compromise is an ongoing journey for many Taurus individuals.

Taurus In Love And Relationships

Taurus individuals are known for their loyalty and devotion to love and relationships. They seek stability and security in their romantic partnerships, valuing honesty, trust, and dependability above all else. With Venus as their guide, they desire a picturesque yet genuine love story. Showering their lovers with gifts and physical affection is their primary love language. Getting involved with a Taurus can make you experience love in the moment and safe. It is sensual, extrasensory, and at times can feel primal. A Taurus can extend the space for you to appreciate a simple life. There is a catch, the courting phase may take very long.

Taurus individuals are sensual beings who enjoy physical intimacy and the finer things in life. They often express their love through gestures of affection and support. They are patient and committed partners, willing to invest time and effort into building a strong and lasting bond with their significant other. As mentioned before, it takes a lot for a Taurus to make a move or change a pattern in everything – especially in love-related matters.

However, Taurus can also be possessive and stubborn in relationships, sometimes struggling to adapt to change or compromise. Taurus individuals are drawn to partners who share their values and outlook on life, seeking someone who can provide them with a sense of security and emotional fulfillment. A hot, quick affair is not an ideal situation for them – or at least they do not visualize this kind of love as long-lasting. They value stability and may resist upheaval or uncertainty in their romantic lives.

Trust is crucial for a Taurus; once established, they are fiercely loyal and devoted partners. Although a Taurus may take a long time to put a ring on it, the wait can be worth it. If their heart has been broken before, it will likely take them a long time for them to pick up the pieces and begin again or rebuild.

How A Taurus Handles Money

Taurus individuals have a practical and cautious approach to money matters. They value financial stability and security, often prioritizing saving and investing for the future. While they enjoy indulging in life's pleasures, they are also disciplined when managing their finances, preferring to live within their means rather than succumbing to impulse spending. If this doesn’t apply to you or the Taurus you are dealing with in your life now, this can be a hidden gem of ability if you learn through due diligence.

Typically, Taurus individuals are skilled at handling money and keenly eye for opportunities to increase their wealth. They are patient investors who are willing to wait for long-term returns rather than seek quick gains. However, they can also be possessive of their resources and may tend to hoard or hold onto material possessions. So if you owe a Taurus money or need to give back that sweater you borrowed, now can be a good time to do so.

At the same time, Taurus individuals are generous to their loved ones, often willing to lend a helping hand or provide financial support when needed. They take pride in their ability to provide for themselves and their families and obtain a sense of security and fulfillment from their financial achievements.

Taurus Career Fulfillment

For Taurus individuals, finding fulfillment in their careers is intricately tied to their values of stability, security, and tangible achievements. They are drawn to roles where they can utilize their practical skills and attention to detail, building something enduring and meaningful. Whether managing finances, cultivating the land, or creating aesthetic beauty, Taurus individuals seek careers that offer stability and fulfillment.

In their career ventures, Taurus individuals exhibit unwavering determination and perseverance. They are willing to put in the hard work and dedication necessary to achieve their goals, often taking a methodical and patient approach to their endeavors. This sign values tangible results and takes pride in seeing their earnings manifest through financial success, tangible assets, or aesthetically pleasing creations.

While Taurus individuals appreciate the material comforts and financial rewards that come with their chosen careers, they also derive fulfillment from the sense of purpose and accomplishment that their work provides. Whether it's helping clients achieve their financial goals, nurturing the earth and cultivating crops, or creating beautiful and harmonious spaces, Taurus individuals find meaning in contributing to something greater than themselves.

Ultimately, for Taurus, fulfillment in their careers comes from building a solid foundation of stability and security while making a tangible impact in their chosen field.

Tom Holland and Zendaya are the "it" couple right now, and they're both at the top of their game. Tom Holland took a recent break from acting and has been doing phenomenal charity work with his Brothers Trust foundation (don't worry, though, he's returning to the stage this year for Romeo & Juliet!), while Zendaya's had hit after hit with Euphoria, Dune 2, and Challengers. And it looks like the couple, who met doing Spider-Man: Homecoming, could be doing another new Marvel movie. Here's everything we know about Spider-Man 4.

Will there be a Spider-Man 4?

While Marvel Studios has yet to confirm Spider-Man 4 is officially on its way, the movie is definitely in the works. Producer Amy Pascal tells Variety (when asked if they're making a fourth film), “Of course, we are."

It might feel like this report conflicts with the fact Spider-Man: No Way Home set up an MCU without Tom Holland's Peter Parker, especially since Tom said he needed to take a break from acting after The Crowded Room "broke" him. ("I’m now taking a year off, and that is a result of how difficult this show was," he tells Extra.)

However, Tom's also been very vocal about how much Spider-Man means to him, and how much he loves the movies. He also told Variety at The Crowded Room premiere that he's “been having meetings” about the next installment. If he's on board, I know it's going to be a great film!

Will Zendaya return in Spider-Man 4?

With the recent news that Euphoria season 3 is delayed — and the cast has been given the greenlight to take other projects — it's totally plausible Zendaya will return for Spider-Man 4. And fans are hoping for even more characters they love! "Hopefully Kingpin, Scorpion, Daredevil and Black Cat," says one Reddit user.

Forbes has also recently reported Sydney Sweeney could be joining the cast of Spider-Man 4. Sydney was in Madame Web earlier this year, and after rumors she booked the role thinking she was joining the MCU, this newest Tom Holland film would give her the opportunity to do just that. We could see her as Gwen Stacy, or as Felicia Hardy/Black Cat. Considering we've already gotten an extensive plotline surrounding Peter and Gwen in Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone's universe, I'm hoping we'd see her as Felicia!

Fast & Furious director Justin Lin and OG Spider-Man director Sam Raimi are two names rumored to take on the new movie.

Has Spider-Man 4 started filming?

Image via Sony Pictures/Marvel

Spider-Man 4 will reportedly begin filming in September or October 2024, according to The InSneider. Based on the fact that Spider-Man: Far From Home began filming in July of 2018 and premiered in July of 2019, it's safe to assume we could see Spider-Man 4 as early as fall 2025!

What is the name of Spider-Man 4?

Image via Sony Pictures/Marvel

We don't have an official name for Spider-Man 4 yet, but fans are already coming up with new ideas. Some fan titles include The Spectacular Spider-Man,Spider-Man: Homeless, and Spider-Man: Home Again. I'd love for Spider-Man 4 to continue with the "home" theme, but switching things up with a brand new title would provide a fresh feel we haven't gotten before. I'm excited to see what Marvel goes with!

What are the Tom Holland Spider-Man movies in order?

Image via Sony Pictures/Marvel

Tom Holland has three Spider-Man movies, but he also shows up in some other MCU titles. If you want to watch all the movies Tom Holland plays Peter Parker, here's how you should watch them:

  • Captain America: Civil War
  • Spider-Man: Homecoming
  • Avengers: Infinity War
  • Avengers: Endgame
  • Spider-Man: Far From Home
  • Spider-Man: No Way Home
