Celebabies Have Crocs and Slippers on the Soles of Their Feet

LilSugar — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 05:00:10 -0700

Summer's here and the time is right for lil ones to be dancing in the street. But before they get footloose, they've got to cover their feet and Tinseltown's tots and politikids are embracing two styles this season - laid back casual and dainty sophistication. Crocs are still tops for a number of kiddos with Leni Klum, Apple and Moses Martin and River Deary sporting the ubiquitous non-slip sandals that caused a stir when they first hit playgrounds two years ago. Lil girls looking to add some slip-on style to their wardrobes are shopping the ballet flats at Crewcuts. Sasha Obama boarded Air Force One in a pair and landed in Moscow in another, while Suri Cruise opted for a more wild style while attending the Australian theater.

Do You Monitor the Music Your Tots Hear?

LilSugar — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 08:00:34 -0700

There's nothing better than a concert in the car and having kiddos doesn't change that, but many mamas switch the tunes they blast as tots grow old enough to understand the lyrics. Gwyneth Paltrow recently told Conan O'Brien that her lil sensitive thug Moses, 3, chills out to Jay-Z's "99 Problems," quickly adding that the song may not be all that appropriate. Do you turn the dial or let your youngsters rock and roll regardless of lyrics?

Sugardaddy: Chris Martin

Coldplay's soulful music makes us understand why stunner Gwyneth Paltrow went weak at the knees for front man, Chris Martin. Using his music to comment on historical events and current social conditions, Martin has jettisoned his band to the global stage. When he's not touring the world or collecting Grammys, the very private musician can sometimes be seen spotted with his tots – Apple, 4, and Moses, 3, – at the playground or an amusement park. Rarely photographed together, Martin and his wonder woman wife say they cherish the bit of privacy they have been able to create for their family in both London and New York.

After taking some heat for naming their first-born after a piece of fruit, Martin spoke out on the rash of odd celebrity baby names, saying:

"People make a big fuss over names. Names of babies, names of albums, names of bands. There's nothing weird about calling your baby Chewbacca if that's what you want to call your baby. It's no stranger than Sarah. A name is just a noise, and if you like it, then f*** what everyone else says.''

While I may not be considering Star Wars characters to name my next child, it's nice to know that Martin is so open-minded.

Moses Martin Is Gwyneth Paltrow's Lil Critic

LilSugar — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 09:00:31 -0700

If your tot has ever thrown a fit as you've headed out the door, Gwyneth Paltrow can relate. The Oscar winning mama to two, Apple, 4, and Moses, 2, had a harried experience with her lil man prior to the premiere of Valentino: The Last Emperor. The glamorous actress chatted about the incident. A People report said:

“It was hectic getting ready. We just flew in yesterday for this. And my kids are really jetlagged. And my son had a meltdown. But we got out the door,” although not without a struggle. “He was very upset by these hair clips they put in to keep your hair back when you’re getting your makeup done,” she explained. “He hated them. He was livid. But I’m here. I made it.” So did Moses have an opinion about the dress? “He did not like it,” said Paltrow. “He’s very specific. My daughter really liked it. She also chose my nail polish color.”

It seems like Moses, who will be three in a couple of weeks, already has definite opinions on things.

Is Your Son a "Sensitive Thug"?

LilSugar — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 14:38:42 -0700

Boys will be boys. I didn't understand that saying until I had a son. And, while my lil guy is a tough tot when he's flying off park structures or banging toys together, he's also the sweetest kid I know.

Hollywood's golden girl, Gwyneth Paltrow had a similar sentiment about her lil man Moses when she stopped by The Late Show with David Letterman.

The actress said her two-year-old thrashes the hell out of older sister, Apple's toys and if he can inflict pain in the process then it's all the better. That said, because he's also incredibly sweet they call him their "sensitive thug" - a term taken from a Jay-Z song.

Is this the definition of your boy?

Would You Spend $10,000 On Your Tot's Birthday Party?

babysugar — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 13:00:25 -0700

Call me old fashioned or what you will, but I rather enjoy the birthday parties with pin the tail on the donkey, sheet cakes, balloons, and cellophane wrapped party favors.

To see what some mothers are spending on their tot's celebrations, read more.

While birthday festivities should focus on the child being celebrated, the trend of outlandish bashes seems to do just the opposite.

Instead of highlighting the five–year–old, crazed mothers spend oodles of money to enter the "look at me" competition amongst the mommy clan.

Over the Top Productions is a company that encourages this behavior by planning extravagant fetes for lil ones. Some parties cost parents up to $10,000. I'd rather put that into a savings account for my wee one.

When I heard that Moses Martin had a fiesta at a Mexican restaurant in NYC, I was proud of Gwyneth and Chris for providing their son with some sort of normalcy in a not–so–normal life.

But then I heard that Suri Cruise had a $5,000 birthday cake for her second birthday (pictured above). Now really, can you honestly tell me that Suri prefers fondant to butter cream frosting? I think not. But amongst her pals, Katie Holmes might get "Mommy of the Year" for her billable efforts.

Would you ever spend a lavish amount on a birthday party for your child?
