But the new parents try to spend as much time with their daughter as possible, they play with her and sing to her. It's great that they do put in some effort to spend some quality time together. At the end of the day, that's all what counts.

Nicole also says that the presence of Harlow, has toned down her behavior and her friends' too! She says: "My friends never go outside for smoke breaks anymore, they don't curse, they are definitely more demure. It's actually been really interesting."

Check out the photos. Very cute!

But i guess Nicole is creeped up now!
She's going to be the 1st celebrity to give birth in 2008! Unless, Christina Aguilera's baby is faster in popping out!

But, the celebrity that did the most important thing this past week-end was mom-to-be Nicole Richie.

But ... I wonder what Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt were up to ???

McConaughey is the new face of the fragrance and shot a commercial for it a couple of months ago.
Matt looked sexy -as usual- in a black suit, while Camila looked ordinary in a white dress!
Camilla is so 'Matt's type'! There's so much similarity between her and Penelope Cruz! ... And i still don't like her!
