Coby Bell: Twins are double the fun!

Category : New Celebrity Moms

Coby Bell plays football captain Jason Pitts on the CW sitcom The Game, and at home, he’s helping to manage another energetic young squad. Already the parents of 5-year-old twin girls, Jaena and Serrae, Coby and his wife, Aviss, welcomed a second set of twins on Dec. 2. “We were trying for a boy and ended up with a boy and a girl!” Coby, 33, recently told Life & Style at his surprisingly tranquil Long Beach, Calif., house. The addition of daughter Quinn and son Eli has meant a lot of sleepless — yet happy — nights for the couple. While Coby snoozes on the living room couch with one of the babies, Aviss, 39, tries to catch some shut-eye in their bedroom with the other infant. “We’re going to do that until they’re 5½ months old, and then Coby’s going to Ferberize them,” Aviss tells Life & Style.

(Ferberization is a method that teaches infants — even if crying — to soothe themselves to sleep at bedtime. Parents can comfort the child but only after waiting increasing intervals of time.) “Coby did the same thing with the big girls,” continues Aviss, who owns Look What I Made, an arts-and-crafts play space for kids. In fact, Jaena and Serrae do what they can to keep their little sister and brother from wailing, too. “They really, really want to be there for Eli and Quinn,” Aviss boasts. “It’s so cute.” Coby’s grinning even more these days because he finally has another guy in the house. “There’s so much female energy, it’ll be a good balance,” he says, laughing. “Even our dog is a female!”

Thanks to a fashion snafu, there is buzz that Heidi Klum and her husband, Seal, are adding to their family. “It looks like Heidi is four months pregnant,” an insider tells In Touch, explaining that the Project Runway host’s wardrobe plans gave her away. “Sketches leaked online of her in redesigned couture gowns to make room for a bump, but were quickly taken down!” This will be the fourth child for Heidi, 35, and Seal, 46. They have two biological children together — Henry, 3, and Johan, 2 — and Seal is the adoptive father of Heidi’s daughter, Leni, almost 5. The insider believes the pair will share their happy news soon: “She plans to announce her pregnancy when she wears the dress [from the leaked photos] to the event.”

Octo-Mom Confirms She’s Doing a TV Show!

Category : Celebrity Chat

After weeks of speculation, Nadya Suleman confirms to Life & Style exclusively that she will be doing a television show with her 14 children!

“Yes, it is official. I’m going to be doing a show, but it’s not a reality show,” Nadya tells Life & Style. “What I’m doing with this TV show is basically creating documentaries about the lives of my children. It’s going to be an ongoing thing, and it will follow them from now until they are 18. It’s being done by Eyeworks; they’re in the UK. It will air in the UK and then we’ll see if the US is interested.”

Nadya adds that the documentary style of the show won’t infringe on her family’s privacy: “The producers will come here to film six times a year. They’ll come by and take some footage and then they’ll go. They won’t be invading my life or my children’s lives.”

Plus, the filming will help this busy mom remember the important milestones for her children. “It will give me the opportunity to have incredible home movies that, believe me, I don’t have the time to make myself. Having this documentary crew allows me to focus on raising my children and still have great movies of them.”

Katie Shares Her Baby News

Category : Celebrity Chat

katietomsuri
Katie Holmes was glowing as she had a late afternoon lunch with her daughter, Suri, at Cristoni Pizzeria in Beverly Hills. While Suri nibbled on pasta bolognese and a slice of cheese pizza, Katie chatted on her cell phone with a friend — and broke some very big news. “She said, ‘I’ll be pregnant this year for sure,’” Sokol Aliaj, who was sitting next to Katie, tells In Touch. “Then she said, ‘Tom can’t wait!’” Although a rep denies the story, as Katie and Tom prepared for Suri’s third birthday on April 18, they had double reason to celebrate. According to a close source, Katie couldn’t decide if she wanted to focus on her career or have another baby, but finally came to the conclusion that she was ready to add to their family. “It’s like a huge weight has been lifted from Katie’s shoulders,” the source says. “She thought she would focus on acting for a few years, but she loves being a mom.”

Iron Chef Fans: Cat Cora on their Miracle Babies

Cat Cora handily sliced and diced her way to becoming Iron Chef America’s first and only female Iron Chef in 2005. But her first pregnancy has been no piece of cake. “I’m not very comfortable,” Cat, 41, told Life & Style during a visit to Santa Barbara, Calif., where she has a recently renovated home. “It’s a big transition for me — I’m like a fish out of water.” Luckily, she didn’t go through it alone: Cat’s longtime partner, Jennifer, just gave birth to son Thatcher Julius Cora on Saturday, April 4. They had both been carrying boys from the same anonymous sperm donor thanks to successful in vitro fertilization treatments. Jen was thrilled to share the experience with Cat as she’s already given birth to the couple’s first two sons, Zoran, 5, and Caje, 2, by herself. “We were a little scared going through the hormones together — that’s a lot of emotion,” Jen tells Life & Style. “But it worked because we have such a strong relationship.”

Trista and Ryan: Their Baby's Dramatic Arrival

Category : New Celebrity Moms

trista_ryan
Trista and Ryan Sutter, former stars of The Bachelorette, learned the hard way about the unpredictability of nature when they battled a severe spring snowstorm in Vail, CO, to make it to the hospital in time for the arrival of daughter Blakesley Grace on April 3. The weather was so treacherous, police closed a highway leading to Trista’s destination: the Vail Valley Medical Center.

“I had to tell the trooper, ‘I’m in labor, I need to get through,’” Trista says. “I think he knew he had the choice of letting me through or delivering the baby in my car.” But once she arrived at the hospital, it was smooth sailing. As for the baby’s given name, “Blakesley is my mom’s maiden name,” Trista explains to Life & Style. “We haven’t decided what we’ll call her —Blakesley, Blake, Grace or Gracie. We’ll let her personality show us what’s right.”

Taylor Swift attends, performs, and walks away with Album of the Year. Congratulations to you Taylor, you are doing an amazing job! (my 4 yr old is singing your Romeo & Juliet song! It’s hysterical!)

Meanwhile, Miley Cyrus performs “The Climb” during the Awards ceremony. Both of these red carpet teens beauties looked and performed amazingly. Their recognition is well deserved.
