Celebaby Roundup

babysugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 15:05:01 -0700

Despite the Dow's historic crash and the House of Representatives failing to pass the $700 billion bail-out measure, things seem to be just peachy in the life of celebabies. It's actually a nice distraction to watch cheery cheeks smiling from ear to ear in a sunshiny environment. Why must Kingston lose his buoyant demeanor or Ruby Maguire her perky pigtails over such fiscal matters? Matilda Ledger seems to be the only tot who dressed for this Monday's doomsday occasion.

Did You Jump on the "BLOB" Bandwagon?

Angelina did it. Gwen did it. And, now Giada has gone and done it. Did you? The famous mamas all referred to their bouncing bundles of joy as well, blobs. There's no doubt these ladies love their lil ones, but what's your take on using the term "blob" to describe a baby?

Welcome Back to the Kitchen Giada!

babysugar — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 12:00:38 -0700

Working 9 to 5 without a child is challenging but add a newborn to the mix and sometimes it's unbearable. The hardest part isn't usually the lack of time to yourself or sleep deprivation. It's leaving your kid with someone else and missing on that experience that gets many moms down.

Celebrity chef Giada De Laurentiis discussed going back to work since the birth of her daughter Jade. The pint size Italian cook said:

I thought I would be so excited to get back to work, but I feel bad that I'm leaving her. She's out of the 'blob' stage of just eating and pooping. She's starting to become a person; I see her character and personality coming out. And now I won't be around that much.

Luckily, the chef will be able to spend more quality time with baby Jade as she starts taping her new show Giada at Home in her home base, Los Angeles. I have selfish reasons for being happy about the mamacita's return to the cucina. Giada is coming out with a new cookbook, Giada's Kitchen: New Italian Favorites that will have a chapter of family friendly delilicious recipes that wee ones can enjoy!

Would You Name Your Child After You?

While some moms give their daughters monikers after their own, it's not nearly as common as it is for fathers. Many traditional families name their sons after their fathers simply adding Junior, the third, etc. after the name.

Famous chef Giada de Laurentiis is considering naming her daughter–to–be Jade, which is the American way of saying Giada. While it's the same meaning, it's different enough to stand on its own.

Would you make your child your namesake?

babysugar — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 11:00:52 -0800

One of the perks of being pregnant is being able to eat till your heart's content without anyone giving you the old stink eye.

Celebrity chef Giada De Laurentiis is expecting her first child and chatted about her cravings at the South Beach Wine and Food Festival in Miami.

She told People:

I used to crave sweets before I got pregnant. You know, chocolate, cookies, cake. I've normally got a really big sweet tooth, but not now this baby just wants meat.

I craved fruit. What did you crave?

Family Ties – Close for Comfort

If Alexa Joel didn't look so much like her father Billy Joel, you'd be hard pressed to choose which one is his wife and which one is his daughter. With just a five–year age difference between the brunettes, they look more like sisters than anything.

Showing her support for her, er, step mom, sweet Alexa Joel smiled wide for the paps at Katie Lee Joel's book launch. Katie's new book, The Comfort Table dishes out easy–to–fix southern recipes for fun family affairs.

Nate Berkus, Bobby Flay, Giada de Laurentiis and Michael Schlow are just a few of her fellow celeb friends who give her two thumbs up. And from the looks of it, Alexa and Billy are on board, too!
