Brooke Burke and David Charvet name son Shaya
Although they still are not 100% sure (but close!) on a middle name, actors Brooke Burke, 36, and David Charvet, 35, have released their 3-week-old son’s first and last names — their choice is Shaya Charvet. Brooke blogs on Baboosh Baby,
You heard it here first! We have finally settled on a name. We waited our whole lives for our son, and couldn’t find the perfect fit. Poor guy! Now it’s official. Shaya Charvet. We played with so many different names, and both loved Shaya the most. It means God’s gift in Hebrew.
David came up with a middle name, Braven, which I really like. I want to give him part of my name too, so I am thinking about double Bs in the middle like my initials, Braven-Burke.
He is the last Charvet to carry on David’s family name. He is also the first boy in David’s family, the little brother of three princesses, and my youngest. Ya think he is gonna be spoiled?!?! We haven’t agreed on the middle name yet, but for all those who have been asking, Shaya Charvet it is!

Heidi Klum in training pants
The whole kid-as-fashion-accessory thing is old news. Now, kid-with-fashion-accessory is more like it.
Ralph Lauren was one of the first top-tier designers to downsize for kids (inspired by his sons in the late 1970s). But the trend really heated up a few years back, when designer denim brands such as 7 For All Mankind started making tyke-sized jeans.
Today, Marc Jacobs, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Fendi and other big-name designers have jumped into the game, by starting children’s clothing lines.
Look out, world: Munchkins might take over the catwalk.
Just as with adults, kids’ fashion — particularly for girls — has undulating trends to follow and new collections each season.
That’s why Christine Visneau and Olivia Pintos-Lopez created Small magazine last year. Online at smallmagazine.net, it features highly produced fashion spreads, not unlike those of Vogue or Elle. But the models aren’t as tall (yet).
“Children’s clothing has come a long way over the last five years,” Visneau says. “People are willing to spend more if something’s well made and original. Plus, everyone saves their best children’s clothing, so designers are making things they’ll hang on to and pass down.”
How about a pair of Tory Burch’s Reva Ballerina Flats, made especially for girls ages 3-7, as an heirloom? Or a spiffy cashmere sweater from Little Marc (Jacobs’ line for minis)?
Bucktown boutique p.45 (1643 N. Damen Ave., 773-862-4523, p45.com) expects to stock select Kid by Phillip Lim pieces in July or August. “We don’t usually carry children’s clothes, but this collection is just so darn cute. Our moms love the [regular] 3.1 Phillip Lim brand,” p.45 owner Tricia Tunstall says.

Heidi Klum Steps Out on Easter Sunday
Definitely near the top of the list when it comes to sexiest moms alive, Heidi Klum was looking gorgeous per usual as she stepped out on Easter Sunday (March 23).
The German supermodel was seen leaving a hotel in Beverly Hills with her youngest son Johan, dressed up in a pair of high heels and a short-cut seasonal dress.
As for her career, besides keeping busy with Victoria’s Secret and Project Runway, Klum has been working on a Volkswagen ad campaign breaking next month.
According to industry reports, “the effort, tagged “It’s what the people want,” will star a talking 1964 Beetle named Max.”
“Max will tell consumers about the heritage of the German carmaker with the help of Heidi, David Hasselhoff and other celebrities of German lineage. The campaign will be unveiled April 7th at a press conference in New York.”

Angelina Jolie struggling with pregnancy
Pregnant Angelina Jolie is struggling to carry her twins – because the babies are so heavy.
The Oscar-winning actress, who is rumoured to be expecting a boy and girl,is finding the burden of having two tots inside her exhausting.
A source close to Angelina – who already has three adopted children, Maddox,six, Pax, four, Zahara, three, as well as 22-month-old daughter Shiloh with partner Brad Pitt – told America’s Star magazine: “Her feet are so swollen that her shoes have gone up a half size at least.
“She’s constantly tired. She’s sick and irritable and feels heavy and weak.”
Angelina is also said to be suffering from gestational diabetes, a condition in which women without previously diagnosed diabetes exhibit high blood glucose levels during pregnancy.
An insider added: “Angelina has gestational diabetes. She found out about a month ago and has been trying to keep it under wraps. She’s been seeing a nutritionist about it – frequently.”
She has now had to change her diet in order to cope with her condition.
