Make a Splash With Boon Bath Toys and Scrubbies!

Boon Inc.

We’ve made no secret of our feelings for Boon baby products (see our reviews for their Scrubbles, feeding products and Flair highchair). And they’ve got another hit with their new collection of designer bath toys and scrubbies.

Keeping a steady rotation of tub toys on hand keeps my boys happy during bathtime. And this set is super cute — and budget friendly ($15)! Plus there are plenty of toys included which keeps the “who-has-more squabbles” to a minimum.

The collection includes 15 mod-inspired bath appliqués, 3 balls and 2 kid-sized scrubbies. It’s really a fun, colorful way to spruce up tub time. What’s more, the toys do not absorb water — reducing mold and mildew.

Need another reason to buy them? Boon donates 10% of its profits to children’s charities.

Seal Says Wife Heidi Klum 'Can Do It All'

Alexandra Wyman/WireImage

Halloween is always a big day for Seal and wife Heidi Klum, and this year — despite welcoming their fourth child, daughter Lou Sulola, just three weeks beforehand — the couple showed again that they are game.

Chatting with reporters while dressed as crows at Heidi’s 10th Annual Halloween Party at Voyeur in West Hollywood on Saturday, Seal spoke lovingly to Celebrity Baby Blog about the family’s newest addition.

“It’s a funny thing, having another child, because you have three kids who you love dearly and you think to yourself how could you possibly find any more love to give anyone else,” he notes.

“The first time you hold your baby in your arms there is this overwhelming sense of otherworldliness that is very, very difficult to describe.”

Although the couple are no doubt tired, Seal says that Lou makes it all worthwhile.

He explains,

“Sleep deprivation is kind of pretty much neutralized by what I call the amnesia gene. They look at you and you forget that when you have more kids.”

Earlier in the day Seal took the couple’s older three children — Leni, 5 ½, Henry, 4, and Johan, 3 this month — trick-or-treating for the first time.

The boys dressed as skeletons, Seal said, while Leni dressed as a skeleton-witch hybrid.

“She tends to be very strong-headed, a bit like someone else I know,” he joked, “She was a great witch at school in the parade last week.”

The 46-year-old singer was less forthcoming when asked to spill Heidi’s body-after-baby secrets.

“You know I’m not going to do that,” he laughed before conceding, “she just has a knack for all of these things.”

“There isn’t actually anyone quite like her. I certainly haven’t met anyone like her. She just has a knack for it. She is the person that can pretty much do anything and I’ve got used to that within a few months of marriage…she’s the woman, she can do it all.”

Milla Jovovich: Everything Other Than Ever Is Icing on the Cake

O’Neill/White/INF

If motherhood has taught Milla Jovovich one thing, it is to be completely selfless when it comes to her daughter Ever Gabo, 2. “Before you have kids, you create so many problems that are centered in yourself,” she tells PARADE. “You’re thinking, ‘Am I ready for this audition? Am I good enough?’”

Placing Ever at the top of her list of priorities has proven beneficial for the actress, who admits success in her career is now simply icing on the cake. “Even if I don’t get the job, I know I’m going to be really busy at home,” she says, adding that motherhood is “a full-time job” in of itself.

“Now it’s all about my baby, her growing up well and getting everything she needs. Everything else is just a plus.”

Time spent with Ever is time well spent for Milla who believes it is vital for parents to truly connect with their children. “You’ve got to know your kids like the back of your hand and make sure they’re honest with you and not scared to tell you things,” she explains.

As a result, come time for school for her daughter, the actress can rest assured she will be in the loop!

“I know when Ever goes to school I’ll be letting my little bird go, but I just want to make sure she tells me everything that happened, good or bad.”

Ever is the only child for Milla and her husband, director Paul W.S. Anderson.

Steal That Style: Fab Red Carpet Moms!

Celebrity Baby Blog – Steal That Style

Choosing an outfit for a special event is no easy feat — even with the help of a stylist! But add a burgeoning baby belly to the mix and things get well, complicated. Especially since celebrity moms-to-be want nothing more than to look glam for their last few — baby-free — nights out on the town.

While the majority of stars like to keep their belly under wraps with flowing frocks, some like to show it off in dresses that accentuate their new curves.

We recently spotted reality star Kourtney Kardashian, actress Ashley Jensen and soap star Marcy Rylan doing just that — and boy did they look amazing!

Got a big event coming up? Check out our chic picks below and stylishly put your bumps on full display!
