"It's not like she's 16 and pregnant," Sammi tells E! Online of 24-year-old Snooki. "She's doing her thing, she's living her life and I just think she's blessed. I can't wait to see a little guido or guidette running around. I just think it's going to be so exciting."
As for what Sammi and the rest of the GTL crew are going to give Snooki and Jionni's bundle of joy, she says they've been thinking about it a bit.
"If it's a boy, maybe some hair gel," she laughs. "If it's a girl, maybe some baby bronzer. I think it's definitely going to be Jersey-themed."
