Child labor at my house.

Having trouble keeping up with household chores during the holiday rush? Do what I do and tap into ALL of your resources: In my defense, I start doing the job until LadyP screams at me and demands that I hand over the Swiffer… who am I to say no? Also, it’s the only way to make [...]

It all works out on TV… but here’s what you didn’t see.

For many of you who saw the baby-product segment I did on Los Angeles’ KTLA-5′s Morning News (CLICK HERE TO WATCH!), I hope you enjoyed all the fabulous products! (Remember to visit my friends over at Plush Little Baby for giveaways and all the latest research and info for posh family gear!) HOWEVER, there was a [...]

Christmas Countdown: Yes, it’s real. And it’s fabulous.

  No hate to the fake Christmas trees out there, but I just can’t do it. I need the smell. I need the annoying pine needles everywhere. I need the oh-crap-it’s-too-big-for-our-room feeling when it’s delivered…. which is what happened this year. Oops. A tradition I started last year (when LadyP was just 3 months old) was [...]

What’s your trick? Why you will see me wearing sunglasses indoors.

I’m not trying to be cool. I’m not trying to be mysterious. I’m just trying to keep LadyP content. The chick likes shades. And for some reason it’s the funniest thing in the world when I put them on. I wear them while eating dinner (in my own kitchen). I wear them at the doctor’s [...]

Fab Finds: Yes, you can have celebrity stuff too.

Who wants holiday gift ideas? Here we go… LadyP’s and my top 2 products that we scoped up close and personal at last weekend’s celebrity-packed Santa’s Secret Workshop. Ready? Ok. LadyP’s pick first: The Joovy Tricycoo! Definitely my little one’s fave find on that day… and this whole week. LadyP is an average-sized 14 month [...]

Baby names: Give me one I can yell.

Now that I’m back thinking about what the heck to name the little nugget coming our way this spring, thought I’d revisit how I came up with LadyP’s name (her real name, that is…. and no, I’m still not going to spill it here).  :) Long story short, a good name to me is something [...]

A soap star stud and a little girl gone wild.

Whoever thought of the drawing station: Thanks.

A few of my worlds crashed this past Saturday at the first-ever Santa’s Secret Workshop celebrity and VIP event (benefiting L.A. Family Housing). What did I learn? LadyP has absolutely no respect for celebrities. We got decked out at home and it was off to Sunset Boulevard! Woohoo! I was covering the event for one [...]

I’ve been lying to all of you. Don’t hate. Just read.

Almost 7 months... I think.

Yes, I’m knocked up (again). Preggo (again). Temporarily-unemployable in TV-host land (again). And I’ve been living a lie to all of you since I first found out. Yup, there’ll be another incarnation of LadyP in our home come early March. For the record, I fully blame Savvy Sassy Moms for this: You see, I went to a [...]
