I’m the big sister in my family. Between my little sister and I: I had to hold the broken flower together at one of our many childhood photoshoots… I had an earlier curfew in high school… I got in trouble for stupid things (while she did not). Why does she get away with that? I’d…

My My, Miley. From a mom…
My dearest Miley, I’ve been a fan of yours long before I became a mom. I’m not sure if you remember me, but I interviewed you a bunch of times (I even helped nominate you for a 2009 Broadcast Film Critics Award for Best Song from “Bolt”). I remember those days: you were happy-go-lucky, fun,…
REVIEW & GIVEAWAY! Baby Orajel Naturals & $50 Target gift card.
To think that I am TWO molars away from being DONE with teething is exciting. More exciting than the pre-baby me would’ve ever thought possible. TWO TEETH. (Can ya see which ones I’m waiting for? On the bottom.) And after these two chicklets come in: no more middle-of-the-night wake ups, no more cranky fits out…
Pools & Potty Training: Stop while you’re ahead.
Keeping life fab after babies requires rules (at least that’s what’s working for me). Some rules have been passed down (from my own mom’s experience and wisdom) and some rules are wacky-but-wise concepts that I’ve personally invented from my own trials-and-errors. Don’t leave the house without sippy-cups filled with water. Don’t take the girls to…
FIND: “Cosie’s Closet” children’s book! (Published by a Bachelorette contestant? Yup.)
And here you thought ABC’s “The Bachelorette” was all finished for now… What does the show have to do with valuable life lessons and children’s stories, you ask? MORE THAN YOU’D THINK. Zack Kalter, the guy famous for winning the dodgeball date at Americana at Brand and rocking Chuck Taylors with his suit on this recent season…
Toddler Discipline: The fabulous phrase my girls fall for.
All clever moms lie to their children… especially to toddlers. (I do…. I’m pretty sure Scary Mommy still does when she can get away with it.) This chocolate isn’t what you think it is, it’s really mommy’s medicine and tastes really yucky. This iced tea is also very very yucky. The Guy’s gonna come and shut down the…
FACETIME! Hollywood & hot food on the floor. {VIDEO}
Just because I’m halfway-in this Hollywood/celebrity/Mommywood world doesn’t mean that I don’t get down and dirty with the best of them. Between work, events and trying to keep all-things-fab… I probably spend more time on my floor than I should. But hey, that’s the way we roll these days. So when I was recently invited…
