Wheel Your Tots Around Safely With Wee Ride

Splash News Online

Love the whoosh of wind in your face as you whirl around town on your bike?

Little Levi McConaughey sure does…and your baby will, too, thanks to Wee Ride.

Easy-to-install, the company’s center-mounted bike carriers make it easy to tool around your tots.

The sturdy Kangaroo ($80, left) seats most toddlers — 12 months and older and up to 40 pounds — comfortably.

As for the ride, if you’ve been using a rear-mount carrier or trailer, be prepared, this will be quite different.

The center of gravity is very different, and while it isn’t a hindrance or unsafe, it does take some getting used to.

Currently out on tour, Creed frontman Scott Stapp is enjoying his downtime with his own personal fan club: his family!

“I’m fortunate my family can just stay together,” the singer, 37, tells ESPN.

While he’s loving the time with wife Jaclyn and their children, 3½-year-old daughter Milán Hayat and 8-week-old son Daniel Issam, the proud papa can’t help but miss his firstborn, Jagger, 11.

“If school hadn’t just started, they’d all be out here, they were out the whole tour,” he explains. “Jagger went back to start school, my daughter stayed and my baby stayed and of course my wife stays with me, thank goodness. We really try to make it a family affair.”

Nicole Richie: I Take Responsibility for My Own Life

Al Powers/Retna

No one is responsible for the choices Nicole Richie has made in her life — except for the 28-year-old herself.

“One thing about me is that I’ve always taken responsibility for my own actions whether they’re good or bad. Even when I was going through my tough time, that was a situation that I created,” she reveals in the October issue of InStyle UK.

“People ask me, do I blame Hollywood or my parents? No, I don’t blame my parents. It had nothing to do with them. I created it and manifested it and I got myself through it with the help of a lot of great people.”
