Eventually your little ones will get older — and bigger. That’s why we’re excited about the launch of Boden‘s new line for tweens — Johnnieb. If you’re a fan of Mini Boden, you’ll love what the collection has to offer.

Stylish and well-made, it’s full of bright, preppy pieces with a twist — think heart-print camis paired with skinny jeans and mini striped henley-style hoodies paired with palm-print board shorts. Our favorites are the classic Rugby Shirt ($64) for boys and the easy Stripy Dress Top ($36) for girls.

Kid-Friendly Decorating Tips from Stars of 9 By Design

Tim Geaney

Robert and Courtney Novogratz have a lot on their plates.

Not only did they just wrap the first season of their reality show, 9 by Design, but they’re raising seven children under the age of 13, too!

So the couple definitely knows a thing or two about creating kid-friendly rooms.

And it seems mom and dad are rubbing off a bit on their brood (Wolfgang, 12, twins Bellamy and Tallulah, 10, Breaker, 8, twins Five and Holleder, 4, and Major, 16 months).

“A lot of our kids have very specific design likes and dislikes,” Robert and Courtney tell PEOPLE Moms & Babies.

But mostly the family loves watching movies, eating pizza before bedtime and traveling.

Since the Novogratzes — who are co-owners of Sixx Design — are such pros, we asked them for their top tips for creating nurseries and childrens’ rooms out of unique spaces.

Check out what they had to say.

Céline Dion Is Happy to Have Morning Sickness

After everything Céline Dion went through trying to get pregnant again, a little morning sickness is nothing. In fact, it’s great.

“The first two months I really felt the classical symptoms. The morning sickness, hot flashes, nausea,” the singer, 42, tells the French magazine Paris Match in a new interview.

“In a certain way, that reassured me, like a sign that my pregnancy was progressing. Now, everything is falling into place. I have a little belly. I’ve gained [10 lbs.].”

Dion confirms she’s expecting twins in November, and says this sixth attempt at in-vitro fertilization was going to be her last if it hadn’t worked.

“We believed in trying one more time,” she says. “If [the doctor] had told me that my body was too tired, I would have given up.”
