Jennifer Aniston is having a baby!


While waiting in line in the grocery store tonight I just so happened to peep the new US magazine that hit the shelves and what does it show? A glowing Jennifer Aniston holding what is claiming to be a baby bump!

Everyone has noticed the chemistry between her and actor Gerard Butler (hubba hubba) since the filming of their movie The Bounty Hunter, especially the one where he's holding her butt like a bowling ball (see below!).


But what do you think? Is she actually pregnant? Take our poll!

Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon exposed her husbands infidelity...to his co-workers!

It seems that there is always some sad news about some poor chap that has gotten caught being unfaithful to their wife, and now Garcelle is part of this unlucky list. Though she is not going down easy or quietly for that matter. She publicly announced that her husband, Tiki Barber, and father of her twin boys has been having a 5 year affair and promptly announced it all over his companies email!

She wrote: "I found out today that MY husband of almost 9 yrs has been having an affair for 5 yrs with some slut in Chicago. I am devastated!!!! And I have been duped!! Our boys don't deserve this!"

Spring is here! Time to dine alfresco

 

Finally! Granted "April showers bring May flowers" I'll take rain over snow any day. There is just something about the sweet after smell of the rain on the grass and the concrete that drives my senses wild! Today we took the kids for a nice long walk (from 10am to about 6pm...yes, exhausting!) and got to meet other puppies in the neighborhood as well as seeing so many moms strolling the parks and streets with their kids. 

On this nice 73 degree day we were hoping to find a place we could eat that was outside and that allowed puppies on the patio. While there were many places that had outdoor seating, we had a hard time finding a place that was dog friendly. The best many could offer was to have Bailey sitting on the outskirts of the patio but the limber puppy that she is she fits right through the bars every time. So what's a hungry family to do? We went to Google! 

On my boyfriends Android phone we were able to simply type in the words "dog friendly restaurants" and it not only found some restaurants, it located a few only some short yards away! 

We were able to dine happily at a restaurant that not only seated us quickly but gave us a water dish for Bailey! 

I heart Google.

Obama signs health care bill signed today!


Although unpaid days off suck I will admit that the most exciting and grand things happen when I don't work at my full-time job. I've found $20 on the street, I got to watch the Michael Jackson funeral, I saw my son take his first steps and today I got to watch Obama sign the health care bill. It was pretty uplifting to watch Obama speak with such passion and excitement to pass a bill that has been lingering in the bows of American politics.

While Obama has many followers who will support just about all of his decisions and there are people who are complete opposed to his rule, not many people know what the health care bill really is! While the full effects of the bill will not be completed until 2014, certain parts will take affect this year. Here are some that Obama addressed this morning that will take affect this year:

  • Young adults will be able stay on their parents' insurance until their 27th birthday.
  • Companies would no longer be allowed to deny coverage to sick children.
  • A temporary reinsurance program will help offset costs of coverage for companies that provide early retiree health benefits for those ages 55 to 64.
  • Insurers will not be able to rescind policies to avoid paying medical bills when a person becomes ill.

For a more detailed time line of what the health care bill will offer read more here.

Overall it will affect everyone a little differently. There are some pretty big changes that will undoubtedly make a huge change in American living but sometimes it's the change we need to make for a better future. Only time will tell, but I'm rooting for Obama! Though hopefully he won't sign anymore bills with 20 pens. That took about 5 pens too long.
