Two Cute Things for Friday

First, let's check in with one of our favorite pregnant celeb ladies, Christina Applegate. At the premiere of the new Drew Barrymore flick, she proves that you can look chic and lovely while expecting!


And second, you have GOT to watch this little French girl making up a story about Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, and a whole menagerie of animals. It's enough to make you want to start playing your kids French language tapes while they're still in the womb!

One Rockin' Grandma

Here at Moody Mamas we're dedicated to helping moms-to-be feel cool and stylish during their pregnancy and postpartum months. But when we heard this story about a grandma and a tattoo shop, we realized that feeling like a bad-ass has no age limit!

Walmart can drive us all a little nuts...but how cute is this grandma who deals with Big Box Store-itis by cutting a rug in the CD section?

Two Whats...and Two WHATS?

Most moms are pretty thrilled to find out they're pregnant, and twins are a particularly exciting surprise. However, imagine how this mom felt when she found out she was pregnant with two babies...due a week apart? Find out how that's possible at the link!

And Some More Celebrity Baby News!

This time, it's a famous DAD who's got a baby on the way. Indie funny guy Jason Schwartzman and his wife, Brady Cunningham, are pregnant! He had this amazing quote on Jimmy Kimmel:

I'm expecting a child in December... I decided to grow out this mustache, so when we take photos…my boy or girl, whatever it is ... they will be embarrassed. So I am now thinking of ways to embarrass my unborn child."

To celebrate, here's an amazing video of Jason and Michael Cera "doing the weather" at a news station in Atlanta:

The Adventures of ODD Sawyer and ADHD Finn

It's nothing new to turn to a favorite book for comfort. (We've reread Eloise by Kay Thompson about a billion times since we were a kid!) But this mom has an interesting take on reading Mark Twain with two children:

"But try, if you can, to strip away the haze of nostalgia and sentiment through which we generally regard Mark Twain's world, and imagine how a boy like Tom Sawyer would be regarded today. As far as I can tell, that fight is not just "inappropriate behavior," to use current playground terminology, it is also one of many symptoms of oppositional defiant disorder--ODD--a condition that Tom manifests throughout the book."

Real Housewives

A new series of Bravo's "Real Housewives" franchise debuted last week and, love it or hate it, it's hard to take your eyes off of the new ladies of our nation's capitol. Whether you've seen it or not, there's a hilarious recap over on Gawker, though you should know they're firmly in the "hate" camp--they describe the show as " this terrible baloney fart of a television series."

This show is one of the many places to see moms on television, but we'd like to see some different kinds of moms. How about the Real Pearl-Farming Housewives of Tahiti? Or the Real Amish Housewives? What's your dream Housewives series?
