um… Get an African American nanny to take care of HENRY’S hair..

It is sad..

I am black and I have the same hair as Henry and it needs to be taken care of. he must scream when they try to comb it.

Seriously Seal should know better..

ok…
1. these people are celebrities which means all of those strollers they have are sent to them… they dont pay for anything, so that is why they have so many.
2. they have 3 nannies, and they are around more to help out than be full time hands on. seal and heidi are definitely taking care of these children, but with 3 under age 3 and full time careers that would make most of our minds boggle, the extra help is necessary.
3. the nannies are culturally diverse. there has been a mexican nanny, and german nannies – the kids speak german and english. there is no question that if a black nanny were qualified enough they would hire him/her. they are quite challenged by finding good nannies regardless of race/culture.
4. this is a most AMAZING family…

All the kids are adorable. I’d love to take them home with me.

And Leni does look like she’s not having the best day, but to me she looks like she missed her nap and still wants it, lol.

And if Heidi has the resources to have three nannies to help with the kids, so be it. It’s her money, her children, and she can do what she wants. As for leaving the kids at home, maybe she likes taking them with her. And when you want to take three children to the store or wherever, it’d probably be a lot easier to keep track of them with a few extra hands. And really, she’s not always seen out with the nannies/entourage. It’s usually when she’s in a busy place or has all the children with her and not just one or two.

Anyway, love the photos.

I agree JLin. I hope Heidi hires an African . . Daddy shouldnt be the only brown face the kids see.

I also hope the kids all learn German.

@karrie : What makes u say the lady holding Henry is German ? She just looks tan to me.

I wonder why they don’t employ any black nannies? Their children are multi-racial and they are doing them a disservice by exposing them oo only to one side.

I know they have $ but it is ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS for a 2 yr old’s shirt (Henry wears an Ed Hardy bee tee;$60; size 8 only)that will get food stains to cost $60.

I’m happy for Heidi and Seal. Seal was GREAT in stepping it and fathering Leni( does Flavio aacknowledge her at all?). Seal def loved Heidi’s supermodelness as 2 more kids came back to back.

I agree JLin. I hope Heidi hires an African . . Daddy shouldnt be the only brown face the kids see.

I agree with Shan. My one child, who is a little younger than Leni, is a handful at times. Help would be nice! Really though, I think help–at least while out running errands–would be a must with three very young children AND the paparazzi and other idiots that probably follow the family around.

Maybe Leni scowls because she dislikes cameras? My son gets rather tired of me trying to document so much of his childhood. I imagine poor Leni probably has cameras shoved in her face every time she leaves the house.

Also,I think the nanny holding Henry looks very German. Many people hire sitters that friends or family have used or recco’d, and I personally think there is a good chance that is the case here as well.

Beautiful family.

What I dont understand is why you would go through the whole rigamarole of taking 3 small kids out shopping when you could leave them at home with their multiple nannies…the kids would surely have a better time and you could shop in peace.

If someone says that she “lost the pregnancy weight because she’s running around [after] her kids all the time,” it just means that she’s naturally skinny and her body regulated its metabolism so that whatever food/exercise she put into it would get her down to her normal weight.

A woman who was naturally fifty pounds heavier than Heidi could have taken in the same number of calories and exercised just as much and her body would have used those resources in such a way that she’d have returned to her normal heidi+50 weight.

Yes, I don’t know them personally and thus I can’t judge them and I had no intention of doing so.

I simply made an observation made on the pics we see of them ocassionally.

If my view came across as judgemental then I’m sorry.

And no, I wasn’t asking for a press conference from her to announce she has nannies!!

I just wish that celebrities were more open about the “getting help” thing.
