Nothing says, “I love you, Mom” quite like fresh flowers, mimosas, and a plethora of activities to keep little ones occupied long enough for her to finish a sentence. This was just part of the mommy and me fun on hand at our special Mother’s Day party at Greenwich Village’s Cafe Clover

That moment of seeing two little tiny fetuses on the screen was incredible, but then realizing a moment later that this was actually happening inside my body and that we would actually be having TWO babies at once, I felt like the oxygen left the room. Pushing is exhausting, hard work, and when the time is right, it is a natural thing, you actually can’t NOT push. Start pushing.’ That seemed ludicrous since I had just delivered a baby, and I now knew what it felt like to be ready to push and have a baby in the right position And when I finally had both of my tiny daughters in my arms, I feel like I exhaled as deeply as I ever have before in my life.

She’s Having a Baby’ (my all-time favorite movie) as Kristy Briggs is taking her temperature calling to Kevin Bacon saying, ‘It’s time! It’s heavenly because it’s a true comfort to her when she’s upset or tired. I have the privilege to work from home and when Bruce isn’t on the road filming, he’s home too, so we see each other a lot! It still feels as if Mabel had only been born yesterday, but she in fact she’s five year’s old!

It’s a world where there’s magic in everyday moments. It’s an incredible thing and I can’t recommend Dr. Jaime Knopman enough. So it’s something that Eddie and I are conscious of and try to make one-on-one time with each boy, even if it’s as simple as going to the playground. With kids, it’s not easy, but if you can swing a babysitter even one night a month, it’s worth to have that one-on-one time with your other half.
