Many mamas-to-be find denim too restricting, but jeans suit most occasions so pregnant women get a lot of bang for their buck when they invest in a pair. Paige sent me a pair of Laurel Canyon maternity jeans ($185) to review and since I am a fan of their regular jeans, I was excited to give them a go. After washing and hemming them to my liking, I slipped on the swanky dungarees.

Katie Holmes, Kate Beckinsale, and Victoria Beckham are a few moms who don't let children get in the way of fashion. Sporting heels at the beach, playground, or pool are no big deal to these glam mommies. More in tune with Jennifer Garner's sneaker style or Reese Witherspoon's flats fetish, I don't bother much with heels. This Summer, however, has thrown me into a tizzy with weddings galore on beaches, lawns, and other outdoor settings.

As summer heats up, moms are challenged to entertain their school–free tots with activities that will keep them cool and hydrated. It's hard to beat the good old sprinkler in the lawn trick but the $15 Little Tikes Water Ball certainly gives it a run for its money. While mom or dad inflate the mongo beach ball, the kids can slip on their swimsuits and watershoes preparing for an afternoon of spritzing and slippery wet games. Attach a water hose to the fully blown ball and let the waterworks begin.

Lisa Loeb and Elizabeth Mitchell's children's album Catch the Moon ($14) is a subtle and sweet addition to a genre that normally produces the type of tunes that wear on adult nerves. Loeb's lullaby voice is the perfect vessel for folky favorites like "Big Rock Candy Mountain," "Catch The Moon" and "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star." The songs are infectious, but not repetitive or flighty — the ideal soundtrack to a lazy Sunday afternoon or a wind down to naptime. To see Loeb perform "Catch the Moon" with Elizabeth Mitchell, read more. Photo courtesy of the CW

When I became bountifully pregnant, it seemed that all of my shirts were mimicking those of Britney Spears in her "Hit Me Baby One More Time" days. When the tummy grows, the shirts rise leaving maximum exposure to belly buttons and unsightly elastic waistbands. Keep your underbelly hidden with a lengthy tank top from Niki Biki ($17).
