Life with a pregnant woman — his wife, actress Susan Yeagley — was so eye-opening for comedian Kevin Nealon, it inspired him to pen the humorous book Yes, You’re Pregnant, But What About Me?. At 54, with 19 months of experience to draw from as dad to the couple’s son Gable Ness, Kevin has even more wisdom to share with first-time fathers. In a recent interview with the OC Register Kevin advises them to “get used to multitasking and get used to things being left undone and a bunch of things on the floor.” He adds,
When you first start, you pick up all of the toys and pacifiers, but I’m in a stage now where I just kick them out of the way.
Being an “older” parent can present some unique challenges, Kevin jokes. For those dads, he suggests “make sure that you are stretching so that your back doesn’t […]

read comments (0)Most people compare a baby’s features to that of other family members, but comedian Jack Black looks outside the human race — he likens his 10-week-old son Thomas David to “a baby squid!” His reasoning? Thomas has “got no muscles, he’s just sort flopping around,” and “his skin’s got this new baby sheen.” As Thomas is “fresh out of the oven,” Jack believe that description is likely to change, but for now he is just “squishy and soft and squidy.”
The 38-year-old’s older son Samuel Jason, 2, isn’t a squid, but does believe he has the powers of a superhero! He “loves to wear his cape and run around the house.” One super power that Jack demonstrated? Samuel pretends he has “super blowing power” to make people go away, but unfortunately, that doesn’t include his baby brother. Jack revealed that Samuel doesn’t like seeing “mommy feeding the new one” — […]

Volleyball star Gabrielle Reece loves spending time with her kids, but she also treasures her solo workouts, as they provide much-needed alone time. The 38-year-old was recently heading down to do a workout in her gym when her daughter Reece Viola, 4 ½, decided that she wanted to "come down and hang out with me while I trained." Gabby told her she could, but there were rules to follow and an understanding that "this was ‘Mommy’s time," and that if she chose to "have a fit or yell and scream then she was going to be banned from my area." Reece didn’t realize that her mom was serious, and during the workout started to "turn all energy of the universe into her emotional needs of the moment" and throw a temper tantrum — something Gabby did not appreciate.
So in an effort to protect ‘Mommy’s time’ and keep my word, I […]
