'I know my wife's going to be an unbelievable mom," Thomas said, 'and I'm excited for the opportunity to raise a little girl. It's going to be great.
'All I know is I'll be as ready as I possibly can and we're going to make the most out of every situation we can. I can't tell you honestly if I'm ready because I've never done it before. I'll let you know in a couple months. It will be a challenge in different ways, but one that we're excited for.'

It seems that Wisniewski and Molly Grace are regulars on the sidelines cheering Thomas on. He shared several sweet snaps of the family of three via Instagram last week.
'The par 3 contest @themasters was a little different today than past years! An amazing day with my girls, the Spieths, and the Homa crew. Incredible memories we will cherish forever ❤️,' Thomas captioned his April 9 post, which included a carousel of photos of the happy family. "Prep work is done, it's time to get after it 👊🏽,' Thomas wrote.

Is America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders season 3 happening? From cast to suspected release date
If, like us, you've already finished America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders season two, then you're probably wondering if and when the third season will be on Netflix to fill that Thunderstruck-shaped hole in your life. Given the success of seasons one and two of the show, which were released on 20 June 2024 and 18 June 2025 respectively, fans have got their fingers crossed that a third season will be on its way. Although, Netflix is yet to confirm (or deny) anything about the fate of America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. Regardless of that, our excitement levels for a third season are so high that we've scoured the internet to find everything we know about a possible third instalment. From cast to suspected release date, here's everything we know about America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders season three... As mentioned, there's been no confirmation from Netflix on a third season of America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, but the team has already been posting a lot on their socials about the audition process for the coming year. That's because what we've seen on season two happened last year so, if Netflix does film a series three, it'll follow those currently competing in the audition and training camp process. If America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders does get renewed for a third season, there will be some familiar faces we can count on seeing, including DCC director Kelli Finglass and head choreographer Judy Trammell. There may be a celebrity star too, if the group's Instagram is anything to go by – as singer, songwriter, and musician Kacey Musgraves has been involved in the training camp process as a guest judge. In terms of who will (or won't) make the cheerleading team in season three, there's been some spoilers shared on social media which point to who we can expect to see. On the official DCC Instagram, zooming into the above training camp post gives us a good idea of the returning cast who have made it through to this round, while a post about the 'rookies' of the season introduces us to newer faces. As well as the veterans who retired at the end of season two (those being Chandi, Jada, Armani, Zoe, and Amanda), some other cast mates are missing from the promo shot above. While we know that fan-favourite Dayton auditioned again this season, given that she's missing from the training camp image, we can assume she was cut. Taking to social media to comment on a fan's post about just that, she commented: "It wasn't in the cards for me, but I'm proud of how much I've grown. I feel it's important to note I did EVERYTHING they asked of me and tried my absolute best to fit their mould. I'm not wanted there and I'm hoping this takes me to where I truly belong!" Again, there's been no confirmation that an America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders season three is definitely happening but, if it does, we guess it'll be released in June 2026, based on the release pattern of seasons one and two. Until then, we'll be busy rewatching both seasons, catching old episodes of Making The Team, and following all the cast members on social media. Stream all episodes of America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders seasons one and two on Netflix now.

Today in Chicago History: First Dairy Queen opens in Joliet
Here's a look back at what happened in the Chicago area on June 22, according to the Tribune's archives. Is an important event missing from this date? Email us. Weather records (from the National Weather Service, Chicago) Vintage Chicago Tribune: How Chicago became the go-to city for political conventions1912: President William H. Taft's renomination as Republican candidate at the party's convention in Chicago was met with stormy opposition from former President Theodore Roosevelt, who then broke away to form the Progressive, or Bull Moose Party, which also had its convention in Chicago.

Sherwood Noble (known as Sherb) started selling soft-serve ice cream — which had been created by his friend J.F. McCullough — at his Kankakee ice cream store in 1938. He chose the name of the new shop to reflect his belief, 'the cow was the queen on the dairy industry.' Noble died in 1991, and Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway acquired Dairy Queen in 1997.

What Katie Sturino Wants You to Know About Her Body (and Yours, Too)
Katie Sturino is not a black swimsuit type of gal. As she wandered the racks at Bergdorf Goodman on a Thursday afternoon in late May, she wore a floral silk muumuu and a striped sweater, a bright green Hermès bag with candy-colored purse charms slung across her arm. She grabbed a stack of bathing suits — patterns, colors, a baby blue tweed bikini with buttons at the waist — and asked a sales associate hovering nearby if she could please grab them in the largest size the store has. The associate eventually returned without the requested models, instead proffering up a scant handful of shirred, red one-piece options, adding, unasked, that they came in navy and black, too. They were too small, but Ms. Sturino politely tried one on anyway. It fit, if fitting means technically being able to pull a garment over one's body. Ms. Sturino was unfazed, taking out her phone to snap a mirror selfie of the pair of us in matching vermilion Lycra. It's a scene that's played out dozens of times — both in her private life and in the videos she regularly broadcasts to more than 800,000 followers on Instagram: Ms. Sturino searching for clothes that fit her in major retailers, trying on a too-small option, and documenting the result. It's also a scene that unfolds in the opening pages of her first novel, 'Sunny Side Up,' out on Tuesday. The book tells the story of a dog-obsessed public relations pro turned body-positivity influencer slash entrepreneur who built a social media audience by posting candidly about her life. The protagonist's biography bears a close resemblance to that of Ms. Sturino — a dog-obsessed public relations pro turned body-positivity influencer slash entrepreneur who built a social media audience by posting candidly about her life.
