Inside Toya Wright’s Baby Shower

Toya Wright celebrated the impending arrival of her second child at a baby shower in an Atlanta private residence this past MLK weekend.

It was a reality TV show reunion as some Our blog faves and bumpwatch alums Monica Brown, Monyetta Shaw and Rasheeda attended. Other stars of Atlanta-based shows Shamea Morton from Bravo TV‘s Real Housewives of Atlanta Quad Webb-Lunceford from that same network’s Married to Medicine.

The event featured personalized candy apples, candy bar and Rice Krispie treats and more. The theme was “Showering Reign”, a take off of the name she has selected for her daughter, though in one recent post, she referred to her baby as “Reignbeaux“, phonetic spin on Rainbow with a very unique spelling.

Wright also used the occasion to introduce the public to her beau and the baby’s dad Atlanta sports manager Robert “Red” Rushing. Up until this point, she had elected to conceal his identity. Secret’s out now!

If the baby’s name will be Reignbeaux, this will be the second celebrity baby Rainbow in recent years because The Girls Next Door alum Holly Madison‘s first child is  also named Rainbow. Reign is also a bit popular recently among celebrities. Kourtney Kardashian‘s son is named Reign and that is the middle name of Lil Kim’s daughter Royal Reign.

Wright announced her pregnancy last September  with a very creative scripted video featuring her daughter Reginae Carter with ex husband rapper Lil Wayne.

Oh and h/t from YBF, we learned that she also had a second shower with her fans. Nice! Here are photos shared by attendees:

I’m So Getting my Gamer Son This Bakery Subscription Box, Really!

Foodstirs lets kids do craft quick mix baking using good ingredients, that are good for the environment and more wholesome than traditional mix boxes.

My son loves to bake and so does one of his friends from school. Well that kid really is into cooking too. The two are not the typical culinary types: two Catholic school boys, one’s girl crazy and the other a gamer. They goof off and do all the stuff boys their age do include goofing off. His friend has even enrolled in culinary cooking and instruction schools for teens and I got the idea to do the same for my son.

While researching for one for my son to attend this summer, I bumped into this subscription box service co-founded by our Bellytich Bumpwatch alum, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Galit Laibow. They are owners of Foodstirs, a baking craft subscription kit made up of quick-scratch mixes are organic, GMO-free, free of artificial preservatives, dyes!

The company motto is to bake life sweet! Believing the heart (and stomach!) of every family can be found in the kitchen, the founders say the company’s mission is to help create memorable, long-lasting experiences through baking.

Based in Santa Monica, Foodstirs sells one-off kits & mixes as well as 1, 3, 6 and 12 month subscription plans.

Foodstirs aims to disrupt the baking mix category with USDA Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified baking mixes that are superior on every level. The brand meticulously sources each of its ingredients based on four core principles: ultra-sustainability, easy-to-make, accessibly priced, and incredibly delicious from-scratch taste. In addition to regenerative and direct-sourced ingredients, the brand uses organic identity-preserved unbleached heirloom flour, chemical-free dyes, and is free-from artificial preservatives and flavors.

The products are sold nationwide at retailers including Whole Foods Market, Sprouts, Target, Kroger, Safeway, Amazon and other stores. Join HERE! 

Baking Craft kits include Movie Night

Ombre Pancake

GILT exclusive Cozy Cocoa Brownie Cupcake

Apple Cinnamon Pancake and more.

The company asked me to join as an affiliate partner and I’m all in! I’ve ordered my first kit and cannot wait to have my son try it out. It will be a great introduction before he takes his interest one step forward.

25 Blogs With Winter Maternity Wear Style Ideas

Bellyitch Rewind
  
Being pregnant is an exciting time.  V
isions of nurseries dance in your head and it’s likely that you find yourself consumed with shopping for onesies, stuffed animals and the perfect blanket to wrap around your bundle of joy. You also have probably noticed that, in addition to all of the things your baby needs, you need a new wardrobe to fit your expanding belly as well. These days, designers have the most stylish looks in maternity wear.  You can buy things for work that allow you to look professional and still be comfortable or for the weekend when you are kicking back and enjoying life.  And for that fabulous party you have coming up, there are plenty of party dresses too.

Combine those with comfy sleepwear and workout wear and you have yourself a whole new wardrobe, and what’s more fun than buying brand new clothes?  You want to look fantastic while you are pregnant right?

Check out these 25 fabulous fashion blogs that will send you in the right direction.

Work Wear
Sometimes it can be tough to get yourself out of bed, especially as

your body grows and changes with the baby, but keep in mind that when

you look good you feel good.  Look for clothing items that will grow

with you.  These five blog entries will show you what’s in style for

maternity work wear.
Weekend Wear
Step out in style as you enjoy life before baby.  You’ll need a great

pair of jeans and some comfy sweaters.  Tights and leggings are also a

way to stretch your existing wardrobe. Throw on some maternity leggings,

a long sweater and some boots and you are ready to go anywhere and

still be in style. Take a look at these five blog posts regarding fun

and functional weekend wear.

Party Wear
You may be pregnant, but that doesn’t mean you don’t still have

places to go and people to see.  What if you have a wedding to attend or

a business dinner on the calendar?  These blog posts will give fashion

ideas for dresses you can wear to all different types of events, from a

party to the opera.  Think haute couture is out of your reach when

you’re pregnant?  Think again!
Sleepwear
Sleeping can be difficult while you are pregnant.  You can’t seem to

get comfortable and your favorite position to sleep in doesn’t really

work right now.  With all of those sleeping hurdles you don’t want to

have sleepwear that is uncomfortable too.  Check out these five blog

posts with comfy sleepwear options.
Workout Wear
Doctors recommend that pregnant women continue to work out if they

previously followed a workout regimen. Fortunately, many athletic pants

and tops are stretchy and will allow you a little time before you need

to change anything.  But once you get past the middle of your second

trimester you may not want tight clothes on your tummy.  These five blog

posts have included some maternity workout clothes so that you can stay

healthy for the baby and for you.

Reported Preggers Khloe Kardashian Sticks With Black Color Palette

Even though Khloe Kardashian has not announced her reported pregnancy with her and her NBA boyfriend Tristan Thompson’s first child together, she is still being “Bumpwatched” quite heavily!

Reports say the Good American apparel company co-founder and reality Tv star is 5-months pregnant with a baby boy.

There has been no confirmation of such news but we do see Kardashian sticking to all black which is very concealing and wearing comfy baggy clothing which could lead a sleuth to suspect she is hiding a Bump.

Kardashian visited the Good American’s pop-up store last week.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashian star wore a baggy sweatshirt dress from her collection on Thursday and a light top, blue jeans and a full-length tan wool jacket on the Friday.

She stopped in to promote the line’s collaboration with Macy’s on Good Morning America also last week and outfitted herself all black then too!

Then again, all the girl wears is black anyway, preggers or not ! Ha!

She is a host of her own TV fitness game show Revenge Body with Khloe Kardashian on E!

I can totally tell that she is not interested in the media circus that followed her sister Kim Kardashian-West during her two pregnancies hence the super down low moves. Ditto with half sister Kylie Jenner, I think!

Our Faves from the Tequila Casamigos Halloween Party

Amal Clooney hosted a party by husband George Clooney’s tequila company along with their business partner celeb couple Cindy Crawford and Randy Gerber who throws the annual Tequila Casamigos Halloween Party.

Each year, the event is attended by an A-list of celebrities.

The 1970s/Studio 54-themed event featured several other of our fave celeb mamas we’ve “bumpwatched” in the past including: Kim Kardashian-West with one of her BFFs Jonathan Cheban dresses as Sonny and Cher.

Supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio was there showing off her unbelievable 6-pack abs! Wowz. Molly Sims and Rachel Zoe attended wearing Mettalic gold 70s-inspired outfits.

The event was held at  the Old Tower Records spot in Los Angeles, California.

“[We] serve a lot of Casamigos and everyone just kind of lets loose and has a great time,” Gerber  told Entertainment Tonight‘s Lauren Zima of how he pulls in the biggest crowd in Hollywood, year after year. “It’s really the one time everyone gets to let loose and play dress up, and pretty much everyone is friends. It’s all part of the House of Friends…. Everyone looks forward to that one night of the year.”

Redskins Quarterback Kirk Cousins and Wife Welcome Son, Cooper



I’m not following professional football this season but as a life long Redskins fan, I was on Bumpwatch over Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins and his wife, Julie!

The newlyweds welcomed their first child Friday night son, Cooper. I love that name!!

The newest arrivals was overdue– joining the world 11 days after mom Julia’s due date.

He weighed a healthy 9 pounds, 11 ounces.

“It’s a special experience,” Cousins  said reading. “I texted the coaches afterwards and said, ‘That was a top experience of my life so far.’ That says it all.”

Cousins missed practice on Friday when Julie went into labor!

Congrats!

We Love Kristen Bell’s Comments on De-Stigmatizing Mental Health Treatment for Moms

The Good Place‘s Kristen Bell was on The Real daytime panel show this week and we love what she said about the importance of treating anxiety and depression with any other disease or condition that has less stigma.

While visiting the ladies which include our bumpwatch alum Tamera Mowry-Housley and our other alum as a guest panelist, Melanie Brown, Bell shared her feelings about feeling inadequate about being a parent.

Actually, the Veronica Mars alum speaks often about destimatizing mental health problems by sharing her own experiences.

“I talk to someone and we have a check in once a year,” Bell opened up. “I take a pill if I need to. I make sure to exercise. I basically know my issue.”

Perhaps to counter the shame that is associated with seeing a therapist and taking psychosomatic drugs, Bell said, “It’s like for me, knowing if you have Diabetes. You wouldn’t deny a diabetic medicine.”

She also expressed what I think is beautiful about her union with hubby Dax Shepard who is a super supportive husband.

“If I have spent four days on the couch, my husband goes, ‘hey you want to go for a hike or do you want to go out with your girlfriend?,'” Bell shared,  before adding, “You have to stay aware and take care of yourself.”

International Bump Watch: K-Drama CoStars Song Hye Kyo and Song Hye Kyo Put Pregnancy Rumors to Rest

songjoongki

As we’ve blogged about before, Hollywood isn’t the only center for celebrity “bumpwatch”.

In other entertainment capitals around the world like Bollywood India, Nollywood Nigeria, South Africa, South Korea, the Philippines, and elsewhere the public and media speculate and follow the impending arrivals of their favorite television and movie stars.

We’re all about following Interntional Bump Watch too!

In South Korea, actors Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo are tying the knot in October after keeping their off-set romance a secret. The two co star in the military TV drama Descendants of the Sun where, as what happens with a lot of Western actors, they hit it off and started a romance. He plays a special forces captain and she an army surgeon.

Shortly thereafter, rumors started to circulate that they would be expecting.

But the talent agency for Kyo put that speculation to rest by issuing a statement calling the rumor “completely groundless.” Hmmmm…. We’ll see. Ha!

She’s on bump watch for sure!
