Jordan Strauss/WireImage The producers of Modern Family are having their fair share of fun at star Julie Bowen ’s expense, the actress joked to Celebrity Baby Blog exclusively.

Ditching her usual pale pink and taupe, Nicole Kidman walked the red carpet in long black satin at last week’s Grammy awards. With a high, lacy neckline, a cascade of ruffles on the chest, and a jeweled belt, the dress’s detailing certainly makes up for its monochromatic coloring. Celebitchy called the outfit “matronly,” and even said Nicole looked like she was trying to be “the First Lady of the Grand Ole Opry.” While I wouldn’t go that far, I do think the combination of the high neckline and the all-black color choice is a little too severe for Nicole’s delicate coloring.

We can all relate to the craziness of life that our guest writer is going to share with us today! Balancing priorities is something I struggle with on a {daily} basis and I know I’m not allow! Let Cecelia explain a bit on setting goals and balancing life as a busy woman in this day and age! Balancing It All: The Importance of Setting Goals I was recently asked to speak to a group of students on how to “balance work and family” which I felt somewhat qualified to do and was happy to share the small bits of advice I could offer. More than any other question I am often asked, “How do you manage so many things?” Currently I work full time as an English teacher, have two toddlers, run a blog called Cool Baby Kid , and recently launched a review network and blog relations website with Bridgette ( Experimental Mommy ) appropriately named Double Duty Divas . Last week a new semester of classes began as I also navigate six credits working toward an administrative degree

I can’t believe it, but we’re heading into our 13th week with our newest little family member, Harrison! His babyhood has been nothing short of near perfect thus far, as he is such a sweet & easy going little one. And each day, as we watch him grow, we feel truly blessed to have him in our lives. That said, he is certainly growing! Though I am sad to see him outgrow his sweet little fluffy newborn cloth diapers, I am excited that he is finally fitting into his fabulous FuzziBunz cloth diapers! Let me tell you a little bit about FuzziBunz , and what they have done for us in the few short weeks that we’ve been using them… FuzziBunz Pocket Diapers have been so far, the easiest diapering system we’ve used. Closely resembling that of the disposable diaper system, it is one diaper, that snaps on, with no extra cover necessary! With a waterproof outer layer {that comes in 20 gorgeous color choices} & a soft microfleece inner layer that keeps your baby dry & rash-free, this is truly a fabulous cloth diapering option for anyone looking for comfort, convenience and style! With a snap closure system, rather than velcro, you don’t have to worry about snagging the other laundry, scratching your baby or lint build-up. And because the absorbent layer is not sewn into the diaper, but stuffed into the hidden pocket, this makes for super quick drying time as well.
