The 60th Annual Emmy Awards show took many celebmamas off the radar as they fancied themselves up for a glamorous night on the town. But low and behold, there were some celebaby sightings over the weekend. Kingston rocked his short shorts for the last days of his LA Summer while Suri Cruise shined up the Big Apple. Check out who else was out and about this weekend in my celebaby roundup slideshow!

Earlier this year, I was at Disney's California Adventure Park with my husband and kids when we noticed a fun-loving dad playing with his children, and then realized it was Travis Barker. The drummer, 32, was in a plane crash over the weekend that killed four of the six people in the aircraft. The father of two — Landon, 4, and Alabama, 2, who is also close to former stepdaughter, Atiana De La Hoya, 9 — is said to be critically injured, but expected to make a full recovery. It has been reported that his offspring have not been told about the accident. Do you tell your children critical information? Flynet
What once started out as a research project at UC Berkeley, the Good Guide is now a valuable parent resource as it provides ratings on various household products, with a focus on baby gear. What's so special about the Good Guide? It gives products an overall rating and then breaks it down into three different ratings: health performance, environmental performance and social performance.
If you can't decide on which diaper cream to buy, check out the Good Guide to see what gets the best ratings. If you like to get into the nitty gritty, you can investigate which organizations provide product certifications and listings, examine cancer effects, toxicity and hazardous ratings, water and energy usage during manufacturing. As the site grows, so will the products and public reviews.
If keeping up with pacifier covers isn't your shtick you may want to consider clips, which will keep your lil one's binky attached to her body.
What better way to do it than with an Eco-chic option? Fawn and Finch Handmade Pacifier Clips ($7) securely attach to your child's clothing using a heavy duty metal clip. They are made of fray-resistant linen ribbon from Japan and the plastic teeth prevent any damage to your baby's shirt or onesie.
The themes range from Little Red Riding Hood to sky blue airplanes and robots.
Every time I pass by a Baby Gap, I either have to run by or surrender my credit card, as I know I almost always succumb to buying more than my tot needs. Case in point — this mod outfit. Does my lil girl need it? No. But, it's to die for! Oh fine. . . death may be an exaggeration, but the striped topper, gold buttoned shift dress and hot pink cable knit tights set off cute overload alarms.
If you think your tot has what it's got to be a Gap model, make sure you check out the Gap casting call site to see how to submit your wee one for the job! The only thing that could make this outfit more adorable is your child sashaying around in it.
Soon after your child is born, you are told your infant's blood type. Often in a fog, many new mothers may forget, but luckily there are doctor's records to keep track of such vital details.
Without cheating, do you know your child's blood type off the top of your head?
