Lil Ones in the Big Apple Are Waiting on the Postman
This week many lil ones in the Big Apple are waiting on their preschool acceptance letters. According to a Sugar coworker, the rat race (or brat race) begins early in NYC, with many parents believing that where their child attends preschool can determine where they will attend college.
Much like the college application process, parents must first get their hands on applications that are distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis in the fall.
Sugarbaby: Noah from NYC
Our Sugarbaby this week hails from the Big Apple!
Noah, born February 15, 2006 in Manhattan, is quite a big boy these days and enjoys playing the guitar, romping around the playground, strutting along the balance beam at the gym, and dancing. He likes to shake his tiny tush to Little Maestros “Jump-In”, Justin Roberts “Meltdown”, and the Beatles “Ob li di, Ob la da”.

Would You Buy a Parenting Book From a Real Housewife?
When the Really Scary Housewives of New York City aired last Spring, most of you were appalled by the women's parenting skills. The series' final episode, in which one of social climber Alex McCord's sons threw a shrieking temper tantrum in the middle of a dinner party while his parents sat idly by, brought out the claws with several of you, suggesting that the family needed to spend more time at home teaching social skills and less time gallivanting about town. We've now heard that Alex, and her husband Simon, are co-writing a parenting book based on their experiences with their own tots.
Wee TV: The Really Scary Housewives of New York City
Who knew there were women that could put The Real Housewives of Orange County to shame? But, last night, my jaw dropped as I watched the train wreck that is The Real Housewives of New York City.
The new queen of mama drama in the Big Apple is Ramona Singer, a blond bombshell of sorts that makes it her mission to make her 12-year-old daughter, Avery uncomfortable.
Wee TV: The Really Scary Housewives of New York City
It's hard to tell what's appropriate when it comes to the Really Scary Housewives of New York City.
The grown women gossip behind each other's backs, throw fits, and seem all together unbalanced. But, when four-year-old Francois had a shrieking tantrum — it struck a nerve with all the housewives.
Wee TV: The Really Scary Housewives of New York City
Last week, Ramona's antics and Avery's reactions stole the show on The Real Housewives of New York City.
But this week, it was Jill Zarin and her 14-year-daughter, Allyson that were the focus. And, more than the Manhattan mommy shipping her girl off to a detox center to improve her arthritis (read: lose weight), it was the odd pressure she puts on the teen to have a relationship with her step-dad, Bobby that made me uncomfortable.

Ladies' Home Journal: The New Nicole Kidman Is a Woman's Woman

But the role the gorgeous red head relishes most is being a mother and wife in her new hometown of Nashville.
