FameCrawler Has Moved!

Whit Honea — Thu, 18 Jun 2009 13:39:00 GMT

You've probably guessed by now that we're no longer hanging out in the old digs. In fact, I only came back because I forgot my wallet. That said, if you're still getting feeds (or lack thereof) from this URL, please update it to reflect our new address: http://blogs.babble.com/famecrawler/

Where else can you find celebrity gossip and parenting lessons wrapped in snark and heart? Sure, other sites are snarky, but they're heartless, and other sites are heart-filled, but they lack the edge of the aforementioned snark. Also, celebrities and parenting!

Thanks for reading FameCrawler over the past few years, and here's to a wonderful tomorrow (I'm raising my laptop). Cheers!

See you on the flip-side (conveniently located here)!

Did you know that the very awesome band Mates of State have their own blog here on Babble? It's true. They document life on the road, family style.

They just finished a pretty big adventure and everyone's favorite DJ made quite the impression.

Babble's Tori and Dean Blog

We know you need Tori and Dean like you need Oxygen (get it? yes, I'm that good). That's why Babble has a blog all about Tori Spelling and her kids and her life. And Dean, of course.

Really.

Brooke Burke Just Can't Stop

Brooke Burke sounds like she is a very busy woman. Her routine makes me tired just reading it. She wrote on her blog a description of her day, which if you follow her twitter stream, you would be tired too.

"No need for an alarm in the morning, baby is up fussing for milk. Our two year old needs to go potty and my eyes are fighting the sunlight. My back hurts form being sandwiched in between two babies that are not yet sleeping through the night (on my side of the bed btw). I wake up my older kids for school and hurry downstairs to get breakfast ready and make it out the door in time to beat rush hour. Thank God I made lunches last night, and I have a 30 minute drive for the kids to finish eating breakfast. Quick glance at the school calendar to make sure I have not missed anything; I have 5 minutes for myself to throw hair in a ponytail, sweats and flip flops on and grab my shades to hide the restless nights bags under my eyes. I yell for everyone to get in the car, bus is leaving!!!"

That actually sounds a lot like my life and I'm sure it sounds like every other mom and dad out there. My husband and I take turns with the boys, do you and your significant other have a time saving tip that you practice in you routine?

I think I need a nap, now.
