January Jones's character in Mad Men may live in a picture-perfect house, but in real life, the actress doesn't mind a little work. January just snatched up a fixer-upper in LA's Los Feliz neighborhood for just over $1 million.

Even though we got an early peek at these two babes in LA, that doesn't mean the cute stops there. Oh no, it definitely does not as I've rounded up a bunch of photos of the cubs to brighten your day. Already the lil girl and lil boy seem super playful with games of chase and tackle with a smattering of smile-pretty-for-the-camera tossed in.

While GeekSugar's still telling me about her version of Snow Leopard, I'm drooling over these two babes making a debut down in LA. Born on May 26, they will make a grand public entrance this morning at the zoo.

Hollywood interior designer Michelle Workman has designed spaces for celebs including John Travolta and Jennifer Lopez, but in my opinion, this Malibu pad deserves a starring role as well.

I was brought onto this job during the construction phase, and I wanted to bring the organic feel of Malibu into the home. My main focus was on the surfaces: flooring, countertops, tile and lighting.
