Victoria Beckham and son Brooklyn support Save the Children in Kentucky


 Victoria Beckham in Kentucky for Save the Children

 
 LOVE the smile!

 
Sweet. Darling, actually.

I LOVE that Victoria Beckham is teaching her boys the importance of giving back. Posh and eldest son Brooklyn traveled to Kentucky in support of Save the Children and I think it's fantastic. 

Say what you will about this family and all their money, beauty and whatever, but I'm on board with them. (Like y'all didn't already know that. Pssssh.)

"Victoria Beckham is "delighted" her son is undertaking charity work.
Brooklyn Beckham - the star's eldest child with husband David Beckham - visited poverty-stricken state Kentucky with Save The Children after learning about the state at his exclusive school in Los Angeles.

The 10-year-old youngster played soccer with children at Manchester Elementary School and presented them with shoes and backpacks, before joining in with an after-school reading group.

He and Victoria then went to read with children at nearby Big Creek Elementary school.

Victoria said: "I'm pleased Brooklyn is learning that by helping and joining other children he can play a role in making his generation the greatest yet.

"Seeing Save the Children's innovative programmes in action, I know that we can begin to reverse the childhood poverty crisis."

As one of the poorest counties in America, Clay County has high illiteracy rates and obesity in children is a massive problem.

She added: "What I saw in Clay County was the hope and promise inherent in every child."
"That's why we have to make sure every single child has a fair and equal start in life."

Wonderful. Just wonderful. And Victoria looks sweet, genuine and so happy.

Who loves baby French Bulldogs? Hold ON...watch THIS!



Two things:

1.)  I want to roll him in cinnamon sugar and eat him

2.)  Check out the negligent, could-not-give-a-shit Mama in the upper right-hand corner.

Priceless.

Happy Birthday, Prince Felix Alexander!

Life is pretty sweet.
...even upside down.
I think Felix is laughing AT Stephen (Pip)
and not with him. That's his way.

One of the best times is rocking
this sweet baby to sleep.

Is that Timberlake?
No, it's Alex and his boy.

Uncle Hunter and his favorite
person in the world.
Felix and "Auntie" Patrick
Look at those meaty legs and feet!
The sad little Christmas Elf
The "chub" has begun...
"Mim forced me to wear this get-up
from Florence, Italy. Yeeeeesh."
"Those fries look GOOD"...Chris Farley
Mom and Baby
Nose to nose with Dad.
I believe they also received
$14 million from People Magazine
for their baby pictures...heh.
Sleepin' time with Mom
One WEEK before Felix arrived!
Ugh. Alex and Felix's "Michael and Blanket"
impersonation. It was 3 FEET off the ground,
not several stories.
ET?
I can't repeat the words he was
saying here...
You've GOT to be kidding me.

Today is our darling Felix's 1st birthday. He's perfection. He's silly and funny and we just adore this little bundle.

Alex and Dayna are great parents. They aren't terribly "goody-goody", which I think is great--and by that I mean they make fun of Felix when he's being silly or if he's crying just to cry. For instance, I called Alex one day and heard that precious angel screaming in the background. I asked Alex what is WRONG? Alex replied, "Aww. He can't take a joke." I was bent in half from laughter. Oh, they dote on him, don't get me wrong; they just know how to laugh at things instead of stress out.

If anyone is overly-protective about Felix, it's Hunter. He loves that baby more than anything. I just love seeing him with his baby nephew. He is so tender and sweet with Felix. Dirty diapers? No problem. Hunter can soothe that baby sometimes when no one else can.

Stephen and I took Felix out to dinner a few night ago to our favorite sushi place. Felix had smashed sweet potatoes, yams and edamame and his favorite, miso soup. He loved his little meal, but was far more interested in the cute, chatty high school girls behind us and kept leaning over backwards in his high chair and pointing at them and smiling. Alex and Dayna will have their hands full in about 15 years and I LOVE it.

The torch has been passed.

If this doesn't make you smile, you're dead. The Evian Babies.



Oh, these chubby-legged babies. Of course they remind me of Felix. Dar-LING.

Sometimes we all need something cute to look at, don't we?

My son Hunter, used to call elephants
"lumma-lumps" when he was tiny.

I'm dying. I have a thing for baby elephants. Back in the good ol' days, when I was able to cry, I would burst into tears upon seeing a baby elephant. All I can think of is that's because of "Dumbo" and the "Baby Mine" song his Mama sang to him when she was locked up.
"An elephant cools down in the hot weather at Chester Zoo, in Chester, north-west England, on July 2, 2009. Britain's hottest week in years was threatening to become a wash-out today as parts of the country were put on flood alert. As temperatures soared beyond 30C (86F) in parts of Surrey yesterday, the north east of England was hit by a torrential thunderstorm." (ANDREW YATES/AFP/Getty Images)

Goddamnit. Why can't I cry anymore?? Any psychiatrists out there? It's been over 18 months since I've shed a tear.

It's the Chosen One's Birthday! Shiloh is 3!

Shiloh with baby sister, Vivienne
Little ballerina girl;
I think she's a sweet little dolly.
This photo is so darling; from her hippo
to her black hoodie and Vans.

Oh yes. Today is the birthday of the glorious Chosen One...the daughter of Brad and Angelina, Shiloh Nouvele Jolie-Pitt.

And now. A moment of silence for the beauty that is...Shiloh. Okay, I'm being silly, but I do think she's a little lovey.

Nicole Brings Harlow to Fashion Week in NYC

Nicole and Harlow bonding over clothes already...

How ELSE is a toddler gonna find out that it's certainly acceptable to wear a light blue saggy hat with a faux fur-print winter coat??

Harlow and her mom, Nicole Richie always look so casually put-together. Does it take longer to achieve that look?

Oh, girls. You're just so stinkin' cute.

Angelina and Big Sisters Shop in NYC!

Big Sisters!
Z-Z looking chic and mysterious

Shiloh looking darling as usual.


"Angelina Jolie gets in some mother-daughter bonding time with her girls — Zahara, 4, and Shiloh, 2 1/2 — while out and about in New York City on Wednesday (February 18).
The trio was seen walking into their favorite store, Lee’s Art Shop, to pick up some arts & crafts supplies.
The Jolie-Pitt girls are growing up so fast! Of course twin Vivienne is too young for a girls day out in the Big Apple…"
...and that, my friends, concludes our Daily Jolie-Pitt.


Maybe.

Obama Girls Fly Air Force One!

Check out Sasha's boots! Darling!

"First daughters Malia and Sasha Obama escort their mother Michelle and grandmother Marian Robinson aboard Air Force One after a family weekend in their home town of Chicago, Illinois.
Their father, President
Barack Obama, was also on board as they flew back to the White House."
Here's how I imagine Sasha and Malia Obama to behave:

I bet the elder Malia is reserved and lady-like, while little sister Sasha skips around the plane, opening cupboards, spinning in the seats and chatting away with the crew, while Mom, Dad and Grandma just smile at her.

I love these girls. I can't help it.

A Cause Dear to My Heart...Northeastern Boxer Rescue - Please Help Sweet Chester

Northeastern Boxer Rescue is one of the charities that I am involved with. These folks do amazing and wonderful work. I'm always happy to help whenever I can...please help this darling little boxer if you are able.


It will do your heart so much good. I promise.


Sweet Chester


IT STARTS WITH ONE PERSON WHO CARES We received an urgent email from a woman out of our area who rescued a small boxer from a horrendous situation. After you read her email you will understand why we needed to help:

“My name is Angie and I run a small mobile home park in a bad neighborhood. I took a small male boxer from a very bad man. The resident had left him out all night and he screamed and screamed until my cousin went searching for the sound. He was shocked and went and got me. I flew up there to see the dog and he cowered and screamed like I was going to hurt him. His head is no taller than a short person’s knees. He has been badly starved and abused. We have had him now for 4 days and he is gaining weight rapidly and is spunky and friendly as ever. He is good with other animals but is very protective over his food. He is a beautiful little dog but in need of medical care. Our animal control and humane society is worthless around here. Animal control or humane society would not even knock on the abuser's door to question him about the situation. They just asked if I wanted him picked up so they could put him to sleep. I can’t see such a precious pooch that lived his life in living hell to die so unnaturally. If there is any way you or if you know anyone that can help, I will be so grateful. I have 5 dogs now, 1 that is a senior citizen that is in very bad shape. I did take him to the vet the next day and he weighed 19 lbs. Since then he has filled out and gained about 5 lbs. The vet said he did have all three worms in his stool but I can‘t afford treatment. He is very intimidated by men, but has learned to trust the few around the office here.” Within minutes after reading this email, one of our volunteers responded. As fate would have it she grew up near this area and has relatives there. She immediately made the necessary arrangements to bring Chester to a Veterinary Hospital. Within twelve hours he was receiving much needed medical care. The doctors at this hospital confirmed that Chester is very thin and malnourished although he has a wonderful attitude. He tested positive for roundworm and tape worm and has been treated. Happily, he tested negative for heartworm. He has some hair loss around his ears and on his hocks so the doctor is doing a skin scraping to make sure he does not have demodectic or sarcoptic mange. We are still awaiting these results. The doctor estimated his age at eight months but they say he is extremely tiny. He will need to be neutered once he is healthier. The doctors want to observe him for 24 hours until they release him from the hospital to make sure he is OK. Chester’s story is not unlike many of the other sad cases that we have taken into our rescue program. These stories all begin with one person who cared enough to get involved and look for help. Can you donate to help CHESTER?

I'm in Love With Oscar the Boxer from Buenos Aires...



I LOVE Oscar!


I have two boxers, Bibby and James (and a chubby whippet named Angelina) in my life. I feel a tiny bit guilty loving someone else's silly boxer, but I can't help it! I actually subscribe to Oscar's YouTube videos--that's what a dork I am for him.

Watch this video and try not to laugh.

The Darling Obama Girls' First Day of School!

"But, Daddy...LISTEN!!"
PHOTO CREDIT: The Office of the President-Elect @ Change.gov



President-elect Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama helped their two daughters, Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, get ready for their first day of school in Washington, D.C.
The two girls will be on separate campuses at the private Sidwell Friends School, the same academy where Chelsea Clinton studied during her father’s presidential years!


This picture makes me smile. I don't care if Barack Obama IS the history-making President-Elect; you can see that there is a definite pecking order in this household...and he is at the bottom. He doesn't stand a chance of getting a word in edgewise with these three strong women. I love it.

How Did I Miss Dennis Quaid and His Pig?

I mean, PUG.

Dennis Quaid lovingly carried his pudgy, elderly pug through security at LAX on Friday as he, his wife and their twins boarded a flight out of town for the holidays.

I tell ya what. If I had seen this in person I woulda peed my pants laughing.

Dennis Quaid and his meaty pup.

Cartman's--I mean, FELIX's first snow!

Cartman
There's that little Cartman kid again!

"Shut up, Kenny."
Yesterday, Felix had his first snow day. There are so many things I find hilarious about these pictures (taken by Uncle Hunter): Felix can't zip his pants up all the way due to his big belly; the fact that it looks as though his dad put some sort of booties on his hands, rather than his mittens; and, of course, how these photos look like they were taken in South Park, Colorado.

I love the Obama Daughters...

Malia Obama and her Dad

“I’m thinking that will inspire big thoughts.”

"Ten-year-old Malia Obama, explaining to her father her intention to do her homework at the desk in the Lincoln bedroom after the family moves into the White House."


Darling. I wish I were the personal White House photographer so I could document the next four (8!!) years of this family.
