Coco Arquette: DWTS Judges Wear ‘Cranky Pants’

If anyone’s been keeping a close eye on Dancing with the Stars this season, it’s contestant David Arquette‘s daughter Coco.

The little one – with mom Courteney Cox in tow – cheers on her dad from the sidelines of the ballroom each week, and has even started providing her own commentary on some of the judges’ criticism.

“She says sometimes the judges have on their cranky pants,” Arquette, 40, told PEOPLE of his daughter, 7, backstage after Monday night’s show. “She says, ‘Let’s hope they have on their happy pants.’”

Jahgoo: Modern Baby Bath Gear You’ll Love

Just because it’s for your kids doesn’t mean it shouldn’t fit your décor.

That’s the thinking behind Dutch-based Jahgoo‘s new line ($10 to $30) of mini potties, step stools, tubs and more.

“As a parent, you simply seem to tolerate all of these primary colors and blocky shapes around the house,” says the company’s founder Hans Pompen.

“Why can’t baby stuff be highly functional and elegantly or cleverly designed? As a new generation has kids, there’s a call for hip, design-conscious baby gear. And it doesn’t have to be outrageously expensive!”

Hilary Duff Confirms: I’m Expecting a Baby Boy!

Hilary Duff‘s gut instinct was right — she is having a boy!

The singer/actress, 24, revealed the sex of her first child with husband Mike Comrie on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in an interview set to air Monday, saying, “I had a feeling it was a boy the whole time.”

After many false alarms, Duff said, she and Comrie couldn’t believe it when they found out she was pregnant.

“My husband makes this joke that I think I’m pregnant like 12 times a year,” she told Ellen.

See Tina Fey’s Daughter Penelope Athena

Tina Fey and 9-week-old daughter Penelope Athena enjoyed a nice New York City outing this week – one borough north of 30 Rock.

Fey, 41, was spotted Monday with Penelope, born Aug. 10, and her elder daughter Alice Zenobia, 6, taking a stroll around the Botanical Gardens in the Bronx.

It’s the first photo of Penelope in public.

Fey initially agonized over having a second child, but has said that she and husband Jeff Richmond “decided that we felt rather than risk having 30 Rock end in several years and feeling like part of our family is missing, that we were going to prioritize our family.”

Now that Lisa Loeb is getting more rest as a mom, she’s turning her attention to fun projects including starring on Disney‘s Jake and the Never Land Pirates. But she isn’t just lending her speaking voice. In a new episode (“SkyBird Island is Falling”), the musician sings a song with the rest of the cast.

And lucky for her, daughter Lyla Rose, 22 months, can enjoy it. “We usually stay away from too much music at night because it’s just another activating activity, instead of putting her to sleep.”
