I have this fancy Givenchy bag. I don't know what the Kardashians have in their bags - I bet they have really expensive products or six cellphones or something.

We can't have iPads until after 7 p.m. Otherwise the entire day is, iPad time? What about now? It makes me crazy. And no TV on weekend mornings.

I use an app called ChoreMonster. The kids earn points for brushing teeth or picking up the dog poop. It's genius.

Kids don't seem to recognize when they're hungry until they're starving and in the emergency zone, so I'm like, Who wants some apple slices and cheese?
