Many have traded in the baby books of yesteryear for websites and blogs <a href="http://teamsugar.com/group/1654510" rel="nofollow">dedicated to their pregnancy</a>, childbirth and <a href="http://teamsugar.com/group/763968" rel="nofollow">baby or family photos</a>. </p> <p>While some families update sporadically as a way to share photos and special experience with family and friends, there are some mommies <a href="http://www.dooce.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">like Heather Armstrong of Dooce</a> who blog full time.

The blogger and her team keep close tabs on the stars and their offspring.</p> <ul> <li><b>Who is the lil love of your life?</b> Anya will be 29 months old on Valentine's Day.</li> <li><b>Which came first, the baby or the blog?</b><br /> The Celebrity Baby Blog was my first baby.</li> <li><b>What was the most shocking part of becoming a parent?</b><br /> How unrelenting it is. You are ALWAYS on duty. Even though Anya finally sleeps through the night (most of the time), I still wake up every few hours because it's wired in me to be alert.</li> <li><b>If you could have one aspect of your pre-baby days back, but keep the kids, what would you choose?</b> I think I miss sleep most of all.</li> <p> To hear about the moment this mom fell in love with her daughter, read more.</p> <li><b>At what moment did you fall in love with your child?</b><br /> Once we established our nursing pattern, I fell in love with how in sync we became. I felt like we were completely attached because I had grown her in my body and now I was growing her out of my body.</li> <li><b>Do you have Valentine’s Day plans?</b><br /> Ha! Absolutely not. We'll probably make some Valentinesy crafts with Anya and have lunch with her. Josh and I have no romantic plans. Anya is sleeping over at Grandma and Poppy's for the first time the weekend before and that will probably be our Valentine's Day Observed and it includes going out for a casual dinner with no kid on our lap and going to sleep early and waking up late!</li> </ul> http://www.lilsugar.com/1042082#comment celebrity baby blog lil loves of our lives danielle friedland Thu, 14 Feb 2008 08:00:41 -0800 LilSugar http://www.lilsugar.com/1042082 http://www.lilsugar.com/6314004 <a href="http://www.lilsugar.com/6314004"><img width=160 height=120 src='http://media.onsugar.com/files/ed3/192/1922664/47_2009/b0eed67741b81be6_jason-bateman-2-500.large.jpg'></div></a><p></p> <ul> <li><a href="http://celebrity-babies.com/2009/11/19/celebs-and-their-kids-party-yo-gabba-gabba-style/?xid=lilsugar" target="_blank">The Batemans go ga ga at Yo Gabba Gabba</a> - Celebrity Baby Blog</li> <li><a href="http://www.celebritybabyscoop.com/2009/11/19/pamela-anderson-tells-sons-about-infamous-home-video" target="_blank">Pamela Anderson tells her boys about the infamous sex tape</a> - Celebrity Baby Scoop</li> <li><a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/pregnancy/8303/Uterine_Toning_Tea_Gets_You_Ready_for_Baby" target="_blank">Uterine tea gets mamas ready for labor</a> - CafeMom</li> <li><a href="http://www.parentdish.com/2009/11/19/company-charges-to-decode-your-baby-names/" target="_blank">Decode your baby's name for a charge</a> - ParentDish</li> <li><a href="http://www.momlogic.com/2009/11/dad_spoke_only_klingon_to_infant_son_for_3_years.php" target="_blank">Dad spoke to son in Klingon only for first three years</a> - MomLogic</li> <li><a href="http://www.parenting.com/germfactory" target="_blank">Zoom in on the germ spots in the house</a> - Parenting</li> <li><a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfmoms/detail?blogid=46&amp;entry_id=51890" target="_blank">More moms spank than you might think</a> - The Mommy Files</li> <li><a href="http://www.mamaista.com/2009/11/19/the-new-clean-plate-club/" target="_blank">The new clean plate club</a> - Mamaista</li> <li><a href="http://www.coolmompicks.com/2009/11/custom_rubber_stamps.php" target="_blank">Custom rubber stamps</a> - Cool Mom Picks</li> </ul> http://www.lilsugar.com/6314004#comment WireImage Lil Links Fri, 20 Nov 2009 11:00:16 -0800 babysugar http://www.lilsugar.com/6314004 http://www.popsugar.com/ <a href="http://www.popsugar.com/"></a><br /> http://www.popsugar.com/#comment Wed, 31 Dec 1969 16:00:00 -0800 http://www.popsugar.com/ http://www.lilsugar.com/6306981 <a href="http://www.lilsugar.com/6306981"><img width=111 height=160 src='http://media.onsugar.com/files/ed3/192/1922664/47_2009/941cb759eff6d202_FNP_BFH_012001.large.jpg'></div></a><p> <ul> <li><a href="http://www.celebritybabyscoop.com/2009/11/18/violet-affleck-peace-out-preschool" target="_blank">Violet is a shiny, happy person</a> - Celebrity Baby Scoop</li> <li><a href="http://celebrity-babies.com/2009/11/19/swingin-suris-park-playtime/?xid=lilsugar" target="_blank">Tom and Suri have a swingin' good time in Boston</a> - Celebrity Baby Blog</li> <li><a href="http://www.momologie.com/article/yummy-lil-punkin" target="_blank">Yummy lil pumpkin treats</a> - Momologie</li> <li><a href="http://www.cafemom.com/dailybuzz/healthy_living/8419/10_Causes_of_Lack_of_Libido_in_Women" target="_blank">10 reasons why your libido ain't what it used to be</a> - CafeMom</li> <li><a href="http://www.parentdish.com/2009/11/19/holiday-shopping-with-your-child-for-your-ex/" target="_blank">Shopping for your ex with your child</a> - ParentDish</li> <li><a href="http://www.momlogic.com/2009/11/diaper_recycling_plant_emerges_in_uk.php" target="_blank">This poop doesn't stink - a diaper recycling plant set to open in the UK</a> - MomLogic</li> <li><a href="http://thelaughingstork.com/2009/11/british-educators-tell-girls-they-may-not-be-able-to-have-to-all/" target="_blank">British educators tell girls to face “reality” and accept they may not be able to “have it all” </a> - The Laughing Stork</li> <li><a href="http://www.momversation.com/episodes/temper-tantrum-public-how-do-you-deal" target="_blank">How do you deal with a temper tantrum in public?</a> - Momversation</li> <li><a href="http://www.health.com/health/gallery/0,,20307237_1,00.html" target="_blank">Help!
