Cooper Zee loves his "mamas" and trains

Trilinguist Cooper Dominic Zee, son of Ming-Na and her husband Eric Michael Zee, is learning English, Chinese and Spanish, but there’s only one word the 20-month-old is concerned with, according to mom.

He calls all his caretakers Mama – even his father!

Cooper, pictured here in a photo from November, with Ming-Na and sister, Michaela, 6, is also a low-maintenance baby, who is perfectly content spending his day with his toys and Michaela.

[His day] is filled with Thomas the Tank Engine, eating and more cars and trains. Cooper follows her around and imitates everything she does.

Reviews: Dear Johnnies Hospital Gowns

Cbb_reviewed_at_pinkRecently, when Tori Spelling opened up to U.S. Weekly about the birth of her son, Liam Aaron McDermott, she mentioned that though her diaper bag wasn’t packed (Tori went into labor over two weeks before her due date), she made sure to grab her dearjohnnies nightgown prior to leaving for the hospital. Tori received a blue and white polka dot Ellie gown (pictured here) monogrammed with the initial "T."

Detail_elliefront_2Like Tori, we love this line of hospital gowns! They are 100% cotton, come in great colors and can be worn during and afterlabor.

Some of my favorite dearjohnnies features include snaps down the back (to hide your tush from visitors) and shoulder snaps that make breastfeeding easier.  It’s SO much more comfortable to be in a gown for a while after deliverybut so unfashionable to be wearing the hospital gown so dearjohnnies is really a greatsolution.

The dearjohnnies gowns have caught the eye of celebrities like Jennifer Garner, Mariska Hartigay, Ming-Na, Joely Fisher, Nicole Ari Parker Kodjoe and Melissa Joan Hart among others.

To read my complete review of dearjohnnies hospital gowns and to find out where to purchase the line and how to receive a 15% discount exclusive for CBB readers, check out the Celebrity Baby Blog Reviews site!

Ming-Na says her greatest achievement will be happy, well-adjusted children

Mingna_2 Ming-Na, mom to Michaela, 5, and Cooper, 15 months, spoke to ModernMom.com about balancing her family life with work.  She says that prioritizing is the secret- "my family always comes first because that’s what matters most.  My career took a backseat for a while after my daughter was born and I have stopped doing movies completely."

What do you want to teach your children?
I want to teach them to be confident in their choices, to make good decisions, and be happy with who they are.

What’s your favorite family activity?
We just love hanging out together — going to movies, playing board games.

What is your greatest achievement?
I’d like to say it’s yet to come… Ultimately, it will be my children growing to be happy, successful, loving and well-adjusted.

What do you do when you’re feeling selfish?
I cherish my alone time. Usually, I jump in the tub for an hour and regenerate.
