The Preggo Posse

So, I’ve dropped little hints about my impending bundle of joy lately (nothing like telling your family and friends about your being on the nest through your blog. That’s technology). I promise this will not turn into a pregnancy blog, because frankly, that’s boring. I will discuss it as it relates to celebrities I want to gossip about. So, we begin. Last year, I remember feeling insanely jealous about Nicole Kidman, Jessica Alba, Angelina Jolie, because everyone was flaunting their pregnancies and I got nothing. I knew by the time I was preggos everyone in Hollywood would be done having families and they’d all have their tubes tied. No bump watch, no celebrity stroller recommendations, no more baby showers sponsored by some fancy label, in the name of charity. So, even though I missed the last cut, I was thrilled to know I am not on this journey alone. My best make-believe gal pal is along with me, Jennifer Garner. With a baby as cute as Violet, how could she not be (the new kid will probably get all the other genes)? But wait, there’s more – Ashley Simpson-Wentz had a shotgun wedding and a mad craving for green olives. Alison Sweeney will drop the bomb on the newest installment of the Biggest Loser that she will be gaining while the poor contestants will be struggling to lose. Former BL Host Caroline Rhea (I know, sorta C team, but I’ll take what I can get. Unless Angelina pulls a Britney and has Irish quadruplets) was looking ha-yooge on Regis and Kelly yesterday (and thank God she’s not far ahead of me, which made me feel like less of a cow). Oh, and don’t forget about the O.G. Baby Mama, Amy Poehler , whose NBC sitcom is now delayed until next year, thanks to her bun. And Jerry O’Connell is actively trying to impregnate Rebbecca Romijn and telling the media about it, which further backs up my point that he needs a job. So, looks like I’ll be in good company through the end of this year, and then there are all the make-believe play dates next year. Can’t wait.
