Family trip to the farmers’ market!

Gavin Rossdale and Gwen Stefani stepped out with their sons — Zuma Nesta Rock, 17 months, and Kingston James McGregor, 3 ½ — while they shopped for fruits, vegetables and juice on Sunday in Hollywood, Calif.

It wasn’t just a grocery shopping trip however — the boys stopped to pound on some drums before having balloon animals, as well as a sword for Kingston, made at the market.

Bath Time Fun: Tiny Tillia Launches New Signature Body Care Line!

High-quality, gentle bath products for kids are hard to find, which is precisely why we’re so in love with Tiny Tillia‘s new, eco-friendly “Signature” body care collection.

Created by London based designer Tiffany Lerman — her mom is novelist Jackie Collins — each product is made with paraben-free formulas and botanical extracts that will leave your little ones smelling fresh and kissable.

They also feature endearing cartoon characters complete with a cool backstory. For example, Austin Elephant likes to play the electric guitar, while Rorsie Lion is nurturing and likes to give cuddles.

Whether you add a dose of fruity bubbles to the tub with the “Dilly Pig” Citrus Sorbet Bubble Bath ($12 for 8 oz) or make bumps and scratches disappear with the “Jac Jac Cat” Magic Cream ($10 for 6 oz), you and your little ones will be having loads of fun.

Plus, the Splish Splash Bath Bucket ($30, above) — which comes with a bath mitt, foamy wash, bubble bath and waterproof book — is the perfect baby shower gift.

Neal McDonough Welcomes Daughter London Jane

Neal McDonough, who played Edie’s crazy husband Dave Williams on Desperate Housewives, and his wife, Ruvé, have a new addition to their family.

Daughter London Jane McDonough was born on the morning of Monday, Jan. 11 at the Good Samaritan Hospital in Los Angeles, PEOPLE confirms. She weighed 7.95 lbs and measured 19 inches long.

Morgan Patrick, 4, and Catherine Maggie, who is 2 ½, are thrilled to have a new baby sister in the house,” Ruvé tells PEOPLE exclusively. “The first words out of their mouths when they wake up or come home from preschool are, ‘Where’s Baby London?’ “

London has achieved top status in the family. “She is being treated like the president in the McDonough home,” the new mom jokes. “She sleeps for four hours and breastfeeds a lot. There’s hardly much time for ‘play’ right now, but she’s smothered in hugs and kisses from the kids every chance that they get. We’re definitely going to keep her!”

As for how Neal is doing, Ruvé says he’s “truly been Superdaddy. The kids even call him that. He has been a super help during Mom’s recovery. We’re already thinking about number four!”

Keri Russell: 'There's Nothing Like Children to Ground You'

Pacific Coast News

Actress Keri Russell feels she is living the best of both worlds, splitting her time between the glam life of a Hollywood starlet and the grounded life of a Brooklyn housewife. The allure of the latter often overrides that of the former, however. To that end, Keri asks, “My house is so great, why would I leave?”

Ultimately, she says, the “variety” of opportunities presented by her professional life “keeps things balanced” with her private life. She adds,

“It is a luxury to stay at home and be a mom and cook dinner and do laundry and all that stuff. And it’s certainly wonderful to come to a hotel room, sans child, and go to parties. So I feel like I have a nice version of both.”

That she would take such delight in domestic life caught Keri, 33, somewhat off-guard. “It’s so nice to have a home and a family, and that’s really what I feel like I have now,” she confesses. “That’s the most surprising thing about having a family — just the stability of literally having a house, not an apartment with mattresses on the floor.”

Making it all possible, of course, are husband Shane Deary and the couple’s son River, 2 ½, and Keri gives credit where credit is due.

“Because acting is such a nomadic lifestyle — to have a home, there’s nothing like children to ground you.”
