It was announced yesterday that Jon and Kate Gosselin, who became famous for their reality tv show, will no longer have to put up with one another…well except for the custody arrangements but these two are officially single.

IMG: TLC

The divorce papers were signed yesterday and Jon was even banned from making any money on television. Curious as to how he will make the child support payments if he can’t be on tv…maybe he’ll sell his face.

The big question however should be how are the kids coping with this new adjustment, their entire world has been flipped upside down and right side up. Truth is they probably hated the cameras in their face all the time, but  to them these people would’ve been like their family. These are faces they saw every day and suddenly they went away. According to an interview Kate recently did she finally came clean with them and told them their show had been canceled and that the kids cried the entire way home from school. I think this would’ve been the hardest part, they never even got to say goodbye, these kids have known these crew members since they were babies. Hopefully they’ll adjust quickly to all this.

Gathering on mini carpets (welcome mats) in a semi circle, young ones gather around one person that reads to them stories about puppies, Santa or maybe even Clifford.
 They look at the colorful pictures and oooh and ahh as each page is turned, some will be handed a book to grab and turn the pages, others will simply stare. There is one thing each little one has in common with one another, they are all under the age of 2 years old.
What? Babies in story hour? Yes, more and more libraries are recognizing that babies love to be read to and …read more

Whether your pregnant with your first child or your last child, coming up with a baby name can sometimes prove to be very difficult. How many of you have given birth and not had a name picked out for your child?
A week ago Gisele Bundchen, the newlywed wife of Tom Brady, gave birth to the couples first child. While Tom may have already had a son and knew what to expect they still weren’t 100% sure of the name, well at least Gisele wasn’t.
Here’s what happened with Tom Brady and Gisele:
“It’s kind of back to the drawing board,” Brady, 32, …read more

The winner of the Pampers Clutch Giveaway goes to number 8! The winner was selected by Random.org and I’ll be writing them later tonight to collect their address. I recently got a clutch in the mail and I must say it is definitely a little helper, I no longer have to lug a diaper bag with me whenever I leave the house to run down the street, visit a nearby friend or even go to the store. Now if I’m going out for longer than an hour I take the diaper bag but for short trips the Clutch works great.
Now …read more

My little man is going through the stage of trying to be just like everyone else. So I guess it shouldn’t come to a surprise that he now wants to have a PB&J sandwich anytime his siblings are making their lunches.
 When they make them they make two more halves, one for him then and one for his lunch. Don’t ask me he loves these instant meals.
Yesterday, the three had left barely any peanut butter left in the jar and on the table. Little A has been known to grab the jar, open it (not to worry it is plastic) and …read more

As many of you know the flu or something like it has been going around my house, it is taking turn with each family member with the recent being BalletGirl (age 9) and Little A (age 2). I’ve
noticed that Little A tends to sleep more now, however not all the time, instead he likes to sleep in the day a lot.
Since Little A has something he is very clingy but only when he wants to be, he can get extremely moody too. How many of you have a little one like this? Now think how many of you have an …read more

Everyone is always talking about the things needed to bring baby home, but never what is needed for mom. Many times people just think mom pops the baby out, stays in the hospital for a few hours to a couple days and then goes back home and jumps right into the mommy role.his is not always the case, in fact sometimes it takes mom a little longer to jump into the role.
What type of delivery did mom have? If mom had a regular birth with no tears it may not be as uncomfortable going home. Mom may want to still …read more
