Michelle Obama Teaches Kids About Gardening

Josh loposer — Sat, 11 Apr 2009 19:12:00 GMT

Michelle Obama's like a Supermom. Just after she gets back from touring all over Europe, she's already tackling the White House dog issue, the White House Easter Egg Roll, and getting down and dirty with the much-anticipated White House Garden.

Michelle held court out on the White House lawn decked out in her gardening gloves and all, as she taught a group of school children the virtues of growing your own spinach, lettuce, herbs, fruits, and veggies. I wonder if she enlisted Malia and Sasha to help dig up the garden and get it ready to plant. I would.

When she asked the kids how much they thought it cost to plant the WH garden, a little boy guessed $100,000. To which Michelle replied: "My husband would go crazy if he thought we were spending that kind of money...It's between $100 and $200. So it's not a lot of money."

According to her, the garden was the hot topic while she visited with world leaders abroad. Back in the States, I gotta say there seems to be a lot more anticipation about what dog the Obamas will get. Hey, we're a nation of dog lovers. Or, maybe we just don't really care enough about sustainable gardening. Whatevs.

Michelle Obama is Pregnant!

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 00:57:00 GMT

Order that diaper cake - Michelle Obama is pregnant! Perez Hilton is reporting that there are unconfirmed reports coming out of Washington D.C. that the new First Lady is expecting a baby.

This would be wonderful news if it's true. I didn't get invited to the Inauguration but I'm angling for an invite to the baby shower - I'll bring a gift AND my own lunch if I have to.

According to my extensive research (which means a two minute Googling session) the only child born to a President while in office was Grover Cleveland's second daughter Esther, in 1893.

I'd say it's about time for another White House baby!

Wow That's A Big Baby Bump On Reese Witherspoon!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 12 Dec 2008 16:09:00 GMT

Is Reese Witherspoon pregnant? She and daughter Ava were spotted leaving a Beverly Hills medical center a couple of days ago, and Reese looks slightly fuller in the belly area. Maybe the doctor visit was to have a prenatal checkup? Sure, it could be bad dress bulge that we're seeing, but it could also be a baby, right? Oh yes!

One more pic after the jump!

Although Reese has recently said she's not ready to marry boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal, that doesn't mean they don't want to have kids together. Lots of people have babies when they're not married. Look at Brad and Angie!

I think they make a cute couple and it would be nice if they had a child together.

Reese Witherspoon's Sexy Strip Down For Jake

Sassy Smith — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 13:37:00 GMT

Perhaps those rumors of Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal drifting apart are a bit premature, because according to an eyewitness, Reese treated Jake with a little striptease that left him, uh, quite happy to say the least.

A day after her arrival in London to visit Jake, Reese took her man into a sex toy and underwear shop for a private show.

The couple shopped at a Myla boutique on the West End, and the Legally Blonde actress lured Jake into her changing room, and treated him to a 'stripping down to her bra and panties' show, which gave him much to smile about. She tried on various bra and panty sets, including a teeny-tiny pair of purple panties and matching push-up bra.

He must have liked what he saw, as he brought a few of the items to the cash register and Reese used her credit card to pay for them.

Vanessa Brown, store clerk said, "Clearly, that purple set did it for him. Reese has a really fit body. She looks fantastic. She's petite....but I'm not telling her bra size!"

As the pair were leaving the store, they stopped to giggle at the display of sex toys, including a black spoon-shaped gadget designed for "all over body massage as well as more intimate use."

Vanessa adds, "They were laughing and joking and just enjoying the moment."

Sounds like Reese and Jake are back on track. Maybe we'll be hearing wedding bells soon and watching for a baby bump!

Reese Witherspoon & Jake Gyllenhaal Splitting?!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 19:02:00 GMT

After Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe split up, I really hoped Reese would find someone who would be good to her and her two kids. I like her - have enjoyed a lot of her movies and she seems like a down to earth sort of person. When she began seeing Jake Gyllenhaal, they seemed like a match made in heaven - both not much into the limelight, but more into living a 'normal' life. Now, sadly, they might be breaking up....

The pair began dating almost 2 years ago and things seemed to be going well. However, there are reports of things not being quite so sunny. Gyllenhaal is currently working 19 hour days in Morocco and London on his next film project, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, and of course that means he's away from Reese and her two children.

A friend tells Star, "This is his first epic, and his mind is on his work. They talk on the phone and e-mail, but he's not 'there.' Reese is wondering if this is how it's going to be between them every time he's out of the country filming."

According to a source, things got touchy in the relationship and Reese flew to London for a rendezvous with Jake. The couple shacked up at The Dorchester earlier last month.

The source says, "They really needed to reconnect and remember why they were in a relationship in the first place. While there, they even went house hunting for a place because Jake will be using London as his home base until December. Reese doesn't like the formality of a hotel for her and her two kids."

The insider adds, hopefully the time away, "will get them back on the same page." Let's hope! Reese really deserves some happiness.

Reese Witherspoon Getting Married?!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 20:38:00 GMT

Hollywood cutie Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal have been a couple for awhile now, and there was even some speculation that she might be pregnant. Jake has said he wants to get married soon so they can expand their family - Reese has two children with Ryan Philippee. There was just one little obstacle in the way for Reese and Jake to begin their life together...

Reese wasn't officially divorced from Ryan, however that is not the case now. Their divorce became final on Thursday after settling their monetary details. Witherspoon had filed for divorce in October of 2006, citing irreconcilable differences and a preliminary divorce status was granted at that time.

The couple share custody of Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4. It's sad to see couples split up but they've both since moved on and seem happy. Ryan is dating actress Abbie Cornish.

So now that Reese is free to marry someone else, maybe we'll be hearing the jingle of wedding bells soon? Oh, and the pitter patter of little feet!

Reese Witherspoon's New Job & New Do!

Sassy Smith — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 15:10:00 GMT

Reese Witherspoon has always been cute as a button and her new, shorter blonde locks, look great on her. New do will fit in well with her new job too. I mean when you're a busy mom, who has time to fuss with a complicated hairstyle? Reese used to be a big time star, but now she's got two people in her life that are way more deserving of the "star treatment." Who'd that be? Her kids, Ava, 8 and Deacon, 4, of course! So what's Reese's new position?

The 32-year-old actress is a limo driver for her kids! Oh how true is that? Reese told Momlogic.com, that motherhood surprises her sometimes, "I think probably that no one warns you that you don't sleep the first year -- that's one of them.

"And you basically become a limo driver by the time they're nine.

"I'm a professional driver now. I'm right up there with the Earnhardts!"

But, although Reese might drive her kids all around, she makes sure of one thing - they must listen to her stations in the car.

"I force my children to listen to my radio stations and they listen to a lot of country music. Very unhappily."

Hey, mom drivers have rights too. I bet her kids roll their eyes at her just like mine do to me.

Green Our Vaccines: Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy Get Political

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 23:29:00 GMT

Who says it ain't easy bein' green? Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy flexed their political muscles today as they marched on Washington in support of Green Our Vaccines, an organization that seeks to raise awareness about toxins in childhood vaccines.

Carrey led 8,500 people through the streets of Washington, D.C., Wednesday, along with his daughter Jane and McCarthy and her son Evan. Of Evan, Carrey said, "He taught me how to love. And without Evan I might never have seen the greatness of Jenny's spirit."

Carrey was equally gushing about girlfriend McCarthy when he spoke to the families, lawmakers and other activists that had gathered for the rally, saying that she was "the source of all that is good" in his life.

Wow - political activism and public declarations of love all in the same day. Celebrities really are more productive than the rest of us. I only managed to shower and go to Starbucks today.

Legally Blonde Babies - Reese and Jake!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 31 May 2008 11:03:00 GMT

Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are very much in love and there are rumors that the pair are engaged (or at least close to it) and Jake is reportedly wanting to put the push on and get married, soon. Why? Because of the babies he wants to make with Reese! Sources say that, although Jake is very close to Reese's two children (dad is Ryan Phillippe), Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4, he definitely wants to expand their family. Aww, they'll have cute babies! Legally Blonde babies!

An insider told OK!, "He knows he might be jumping the gun thinking of kids, but he knows that Reese is the one.

"He laughs and says he needs to propose and do this the right way. It really is first comes love, then comes marriage - cheesy as that sound, it's the way he thinks!"

Although Reese feels the same way about Jake, she wants to make sure he's truly ready to be a parent before they take that next step.

"Reese has admitted that Jake has grown from when they first met into this very dependable dad type. He's ready to have his whole life change, " the source adds.

We'll definitely be watching for that baby bump!

Legally Blonde & Pretty In Pink - Reese Witherspoon Is Pregnant?

Reese & Jake Destined To Be Together -Psychic Said So

Sassy Smith — Wed, 28 May 2008 14:04:00 GMT

If a psychic says you are destined to be together, then it must be true. That's the case with Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal. I'm betting this means babies for them in the future - near or far, one or the other. See? I'm psychic too!

According to Hollywood psychic Kenny Kingston and his spiritual "guides," it's believed that Reese and Jake were romantically involved when they were medics in World War One.

Kingston told Contactmusic, "He was a doctor, she was a nurse. They worked closely together and were also romantically involved. But too soon, he was called to more active duty and they were separated. So, in this life, they must complete their relationship, both romantically and in some capicity, to work together.

"This (new relationship) will allow the relationship that started during World War One to fully blossom."

Well, if they have been dating since WWI, then of course they were meant to be together. Duh!

Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are a celebrity couple going strong, there's even rumors of a pending engagement (which of course means babies!) and they seem to be quite happy. What do you think of their public displays of affection? Cute or should they get a room already?

Legally Blonde & Pretty In Pink - Reese Witherspoon Is Pregnant?

Reese Witherspoon attended the Sixth Annual Avon Walk for Breast Cancer on Sunday, May 4 in Washington D.C. and while she looked adorable in her pink tee, I think we see a wee bit of a baby bump! Are Reese and Jake Gyllenhaal expecting?

More pics after the jump

I'm pushing it aren't I? Fine, she's most likely not pregnant and that's not much of a bump, hell most of us probably look more preggo than that after we drink a rootbeer, but I can suggest it can't I?

Anyway, Reese's duty for the day was to "support walkers at points along Sunday's route."

Press reports say:

People participating were walking "over the duration of the weekend to raise funds for the Avon Foundation, which awards local and regional breast cancer organizations."

“Each walker in the noncompetitive event had the choice of walking a marathon (26.2 miles) or a marathon and a half (39.3 miles), and all walkers committed to raising at least $1,800.”

Although Witherspoon wasn't participating in walking for donations, her appearance there, I'm sure motivated a lot of the walkers!

Judging By This Photo, I'd Say Katharine McPhee Is Pregnant

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 09 Dec 2007 23:45:00 GMT

Hey - I don't take the pictures, I just write about them. And I'm going to say in this one Katharine McPhee appears to be working a little baby bump. It could be just the aftermath of a big lunch, but writing about a big plate of pasta isn't nearly as fun to write about as a celebrity impregnation.

McPhee and High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens are in Washington DC to tape the TNT holiday special Christmas in Washington and are seen here during a rehearsal on Saturday. McPhee recently became engaged to Nick Cokas, and there was speculation then that the American Idol runner-up was already expecting their first child.

I say she's pregnant, but if I'm wrong I promise to write an entire post about high-carb lunches.
