We recently had a chance to catch up with Melissa Joan Hart and get an update on her life with her boys — husband Mark Wilkerson and sons Mason, 3, and Braydon ‘Brady,’ 11 months. We’re cross-posting her most recent MySpace blog here, along with some photos of the family’s trip to Disneyland last month in celebration of Mason’s third birthday. Enjoy!
Hi all,
It’s been a while since I have written anything and updated you on the goings on here. We had a wonderful, but of course, busy holiday season.
Mason started skiing this winter which is awesome…(remember me saying I wouldnt have a second baby till Mason could snowboard!? And no this doesn’t mean I am anywhere near ready for a third)!
Things are going great with the career. Some new things are really starting to pan out.
Nine Dead is finally finished and ready for distribution. If you visit IMDB.com and check out the Nine Dead page it will help us get the film out there for all to see.
The ABC Family movie finally has a title, My Fake Fiancé, and will air on ABC Family April 19th, so set your Tivos. It is very funny and sweet. I am proud of it!
In our family news, Braydon is about to turn 1 in March and we are taking him to Disneyland as we do for Mason on his birthday every year.
Mason is in the funniest stage ever, he is obsessed with the Disney movies like Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast and has been quoting them to me. He called me a “filthy street rat” the other day which is from Aladdin, and he was sitting in his car seat one day when he yelled out “I’m 16, I’m not a child anymore,” a la Little Mermaid. Hilarious!!!
Mark is writing music for other artists to perform which is ultimately what he wants to do. And we are gearing up our family to move back to the East Coast. Our house has been on the market a few months and we want to get back to the four seasons and less traffic in the east.
Hope 2009 is treating everyone well and you are able to stay afloat during this difficult time in our country. God Bless!
Melissa

Kansas City Royals Brian Bannister was spending his time focusing on this past season — the worst year of his professional career — until he and wife Megan — following a difficult pregnancy — welcomed daughter Brynn four months ago. Instantly, his outlook on life and what’s important to him changed. “There are only a couple of moments in your life when you know your life has changed. This is one of them. It gives you a higher purpose,” notes the 27-year-old.
“Because of my daughter, I didn’t think about baseball one time in this offseason. You’re up every three hours with her, 24 hours a day. The only statistic I kept track of was how many diapers I changed … It was running about seven or eight per day.”
Brian began his professional baseball year in 2006 when he was drafted by the New York Mets. The following year he was traded to the Royals, whom he recently signed a one-year contract with.

He earlier this month confirmed that he’s an expectant father, and in a new blog entry to GlobalGrind.com rapper Nas, 35, reveals that baby-on-the-way is a boy. Writing that “life is good,” Nas adds, “I’m sure that y’all heard K is expecting…The internet seems to be more excited than I am.”
“It’s crazy! I got too much to think about, and I didn’t wanna leave all my fans out [of] the loop. But I wanted to let ya’ll know from me personally that I’m having my first SON!!!!!”
Baby boy will be the first child for Nas’ wife Kelis, 29, whom he married in 2005, and will join Nas’ 15-year-old daughter Destiny from a previous relationship.

She’s starred onscreen with Tom Cruise, Patrick Dempsey and Shia LaBeouf, but Michelle Monaghan said those films don’t hold a candle to her new part – “the role of mommy.”
The Eagle Eye and Made of Honor actress, 32, gave birth to daughter Willow Katherine on November 5th. Three months later, “every day feels like Christmas,” she told PEOPLE. “It’s such a profound love. A couple of weeks ago I saw her discover her own toes and she wiggled them and her eyes got really big.”
Michelle ventured out on her own for a New York City amfAR gala Feb. 12. Leaving Willow at home in L.A. with husband Peter White was difficult for the actress. “It’s my first night away from her,” she says, “and I imagine I miss her more than she misses me.”
Just three months after giving birth, Michelle zipped herself into a sample size Louis Vuitton dress and donned four-inch heels for the amfAR event at Cipriani 42nd Street. Her body after baby secret?
“Honestly, I started working out after two-and-a-half months,” she says. “I have a trainer. I’ve just been lifting weights and breastfeeding. And I eat really healthy and a lot, because I’m breastfeeding … always organic. I frequent Whole Foods. I never really cared so much about my diet until I got pregnant and had a baby.”
And when will Michelle return to the screen? “I’m taking some time,” she says. “Looking at some [projects], but enjoying being in the role of mommy.”
