    Very cute . I have twins and took a lot of pictures of them too… boy/girl for me. She seems like a good mom. However, Bumbos are great Elsa but you are NOT supposed to put them on the counter…NO!

    • Mel M says:

      Agreed! I cringe every time I see someone put them on a table or counter. It’s says right on the box not to put them on anything other then the floor. How many times do we have to hear about babies throwing themselves out and getting hurt! Then the parents end up blaming the bumbo.

      • Anon says:

        Yes!! Bumbos should not be on any raised surface. I was going to say something, but was happy to see yall beat me to it!

        Cute babies, though.

      • booboobird says:

        I don’t get the idea of that bumbo seat. I mean, when the kid is ready to sit he will sit unassisted. why mess with a developing body?

      • Abbott says:

        I don’t know much about babies, but isn’t there an ‘in-between’ phase of sorts, where they can kinda sit up but can’t fully self-support? Like when I eat a Chipotle burrito bowl, I’d imagine.

      • booboobird says:

        @Abbott
        ha, yea they have that in between when they look like citizens of ancient Rome all side lounge-y and lazy. looks extra ridiculous when trying to eat something.

      • Abbott says:

        ‘Mother! Bringeth my mashed funyons and plums!’ I dunno what babies eat.

      • booboobird says:

        yea. try pickles and smoked chicken wings.

      • Ava says:

        @abbott They are great! Also it is quite different when you have two babies and one mommy! I brought them to the beach on the grass and parties. If you can’t hold both and they are in that in between stage, they can reach out and touch things like sand without being face down in the sand lol. Especially with twins things are a matter of giving them experiences but you only have two hands. Lol

    • Elisabeth says:

      whoever was taking the pictures was right in front of them…I’m sure they are fine

    • alicegrey12 says:

      Elsa, you and Chris have two cute babies, or what i call cutie patooties.

    • Veronica says:

      Given the angle of the shot, I’m assuming Hemsworth or somebody else is on the other side of the table, which means they’re braced from both sides. Not ideal, but not as bad as it could be?

    • mkyarwood says:

      Eh, we put Meridien up on the kitchen table with us in her bumbo, but she’s not sitting on her own yet, has the straps on and the tray locked in place. Plus she has her spoon to occupy her. Those babies are older, and look a bit more mobile, so a regular highchair should be happening!

    • Really says:

      The company had to send out a useless recall strap for those Bumpos and then you still have idiot celebrities who put them on the counter AND post pictures of said idiocy online! Why would I link to your blog?

  2. taterho says:

    Ice Ice Baby…
    Every time I hear that song it reminds me of being stuck in HOT AS F*** traffic in the early 90’s in Phoenix. Dude very near was blaring it and you just couldn’t block it out. That is why Vanilla Ice makes me feel all tense and sweaty. Not the good kind.

    The little girl with the Pop rocks is just too too adorable! “Bug in my hair!” LOL

  3. blue marie says:

    If I had Thor’s babies I’d be posting all the time too! They’re cute..

    And yes, it’s freakin freezing here. The south isn’t supposed to get this dang cold..

  4. Jan Harf says:

    Who doesn’t post pics of their kids? Seriously.

    • mimif says:

      Me. But that might be because I don’t have kids?

      • Mimif we can pretend to be twinsies. Or grandmother, granddaughter. Because you ARE 92.

      • mimif says:

        I will not grant you twinship until you see FSOG! muahhh

      • Kitten says:

        I post pictures of my cats all the time.
        The BF says the younger one could be Instafamous.

        Do they make bumbos for cats?

      • @mimif
        Now you’ve done it. I am SO embarrassed over this stupid movie, that I told my dad (who’s going to drop me off on his way to school) that I’m going to see KINGSMAN (and I recently tweeted that Colin Firth must’ve been broke when he said YES). Ugh. This twinsie thing BETTER be good.

        And I suspect I’ll have to email you my review….*shudder*

  5. In the celebrity world, what do you guys think—is it better to post pics on stuff like twitter and instagram (and still get pap’d somewhat), or is it better to not have any of those, but allow your kids to be pap’d (with you), and have your kids sometimes in PEOPLE (like with those baby covers)…….?????????????

    • Algernon says:

      At this point I don’t think you can split hairs. To the general public, it’s all the same. I have friends and family who love this celebrity baby crap and they don’t see any difference between an Instagram photo from the parent and a pap shot. To them, once the kid’s face is out there, it’s out there. If you’re a celebrity and you don’t want your kid to be “out there”, I don’t think you can post photos of them at all. Paps may still catch you out from time to time, but you can’t feed the beast even a little bit. (That’s what drove me nuts about Kristen Bell’s crusade against paps. She has no problem putting her kids out there, but then she gets upset when it turns out that people then want/expect to see her kids out there. It’s all part of the same machine.)

      • Abbott says:

        Yes! It’s the lack of consistency that can get irritating. I say live your lives like the Damon and Jackman’s*. Two of the biggest stars on the planet and I probably couldn’t tell you a whole lot about their kids and wives.

        *mostly because I want to ride around town on a sweet ass scooter like Wolverine

      • Marty says:

        Pretty much Abbot. And for as much as Chris Hemsworth has been complaining about the paps, and social media in general, it surprises me she posts as much as she does, especially of her kids.

      • JustNo says:

        @Abbott Thier is actually a lot of pictures of Damon and Jackman’s wives and kids and both have talk a lot about them. Like how Hugh has said that Oscar be a ladies man and has a girlfriend So I’m unsure of what you mean.

        @Marty I do think it’s odd that Chirs complains when Elsa getting paid to write bloge at spanish Glamour where she writes about her life and post pictures of her, Chris and the kids.

    • taterho says:

      I kind of side eye celebrities instagramming the kids. I would have a private one that only close friends could see. I don’t instagram so I don’t know. Can you make a private friend only one? I’m not a celebrity either so I don’t know what the thinking would be.
      Never Mind™

      • mimif says:

        I *think* if I had kids, I would be inclined to not post pics of them on social media period. I was still young when Al Gore invented the internet, so I didn’t grow up online, but I shudder to think of my mom posting pics of my brother and I having knife fights or burning down the neighbor’s vineyard. I mean, that’s what mug shots are for.

      • @mimif
        You spent half your childhood with the police knocking on your door? ME TOO. Twinsies! I’m carrying on the family traditions….don’t worry 😉

      • mimif says:

        We didn’t actually have a door because my mom threw a chair through it (don’t know why but it still makes me laugh), but yes, there was lots of, how shall I say….running from the law. Never been caught tho! *fires potato launcher*

        Sorry bout the po po tho VC, you can come stay with me anytime. 😘

      • taterho says:

        @mimif
        I sort of wish my mother did have instragam back in the day. It would have proven that the barbie leg, super glued to the bathroom door, was my sister’s doin’s and not the wrongly convicted and adorable baby tateru’s. It was clearly at my sister’s eye level and not mine. Forensics people!!!!

        Where was Bill Curtis when I needed him?

      • Kitten says:

        @Mimif-My big brother and his friend burned down part of a local forest. I wasn’t involved though-I was wearing a my cat Halloween suit that Mom made me and walking around on all fours. No wonder he never wanted to have a knife fight with me.

      • mimif says:

        instragram sounds like something you have done at the gyno, my poor beleaguered tatertot.

        ETA: Oh sh-t, Kitten, that’s no bueno, hope no one got hurt. We burned down the vineyard building bongs, but since I was only like 8, I think I might have built a bomb? And look at you, a kitty lover since Day One. 😻

      • Kitten says:

        The only person that got hurt was my brother after my parents water-boarded him and locked him in his room for 3 weeks (or at least that’s how he remembers it).

        And look at you! A young Ted Kaczynski in the making.

      • taterho says:

        @mimif
        InUteroGram. For posting pics of your last pelvic exam.
        Or your Nirvana concert pics.
        My cervix with the Valencia filter…Adorbs!

      • Kiddo says:

        Private friend sounds saucy.

      • @mimif, O’Kitten
        Me, my twin, and my best friend, when we were 6/7 went into the garage of this empty house up the street (we lived in a cul de sac on a military base in Guam)……..it was unlocked, and we had gone through the trash of one of our neighbors who was moving to get some oil (as in this neighbor threw away a whole trashbag’s worth of car oil/fuel/etc)………..and we poured and smeared and mixed that oil ALL OVER the walls and the ground. And we were covered in it head to toe. I don’t remember how we got caught, but the only reason why my parents weren’t in trouble (my mom actually worked ON the base) was because the garage door and the house was left UNLOCKED…..it wasn’t supposed to be. So it wasn’t like we broke down the door–someone left it unlocked.

        I remember firetrucks, and the police chief coming to our door. Lol, my mom and I were talking about it, and she said that was the only time she wanted to kill us, lol. And we were literally grounded for like a month. As in we had to stay in our rooms, doing nothing, ALL DAY. God.

      • mimif says:

        lol VC, I’m going to send you to your room if you don’t switch out FSOG for the Colin Firth movie.

      • @mimif
        *blows an obscenely loud and long raspberry*

        Girl, I’m making plans with my friend now. You made me start. She saw FSOG last night, and she told her parents that she saw American Sniper (and lol, she’s over 18 the weirdo, and her parents aren’t religious–I think she’s too embarrassed to tell them she saw it)….so I told her to come see it with me, and I’ll tell her everything that happened in “American Sniper”….we’ll see.

  6. EC says:

    I’m creeping in on her counters. So far I can spot a Vitamix (she seems the type) and Rice Crispies. My mom made me eat those too because they were relatively low in sugar. I think behind her head are K-Cups? Man I hate those things.

  7. Algernon says:

    Meanwhile, Chris Hemsworth is in magazines talking about how much he hates paparazzi. Your wife is promoting interest in your kids, son. Mixed messaging.

    • Marty says:

      This.

    • RobN says:

      That’s what bugs me about this. Same thing with Hillary Duff, constantly complaining about being papped with the kid and then spends half her time posting pictures of him. Pick one. I don’t care which one, that is your business, but pick.

    • MoochieMom says:

      Wasn’t she a blind item a while back? Something about those post baby boobies and Playboy and Thor put the hammer down on that.

  8. InvaderTak says:

    Can someone who knows more than I do explain her heritage? She’s spainish I got that but how did her last name end up pataky?

  9. booboobird says:

    brrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I feel for US and the cold. valentine weekend we spent indoors cuz it was a cool -41c with windchill in the morning and overnight and just yesterday and the day before it was almost tropical -10c. today back to -31c windchill. darn I sometimes hate Canadian winters.

    • Kiddo says:

      I’m loving the cold. It’s bright and sunny, without the piles of snow that Boston has.

      • booboobird says:

        I don’t mind the cold and sunny days. i’d rather snow and minuses when it’s winter. I have a beef with windchill and extreme cold weather warning. one of the kidlets is trying to put a wool hat on a friggin ball and the other two are waging pokemon wars. they are out of their minds. cabin fever.

      • Kiddo says:

        Good visual. Make sure to take plenty of photos of action poses.

      • @booboobird
        When me and my siblings and cousins were little, when we got bored, we used to have “Lego Wars”…we would basically hide behind chairs/beds/boxes, and throw legos at each other. The TINY ones. We had to stop about my little cousin (who was SUCH a sissy) got hit in the eye and started crying…..lol.

  10. DogMom says:

    I always wonder about celebrities who are in their own photos on instagram / twitter / whatever. Who is taking the photo? Is it this person’s job to randomly document said celebrity for social media?

    It’s sorta like the 3rd hand in the ikea instructions.

  11. Dana says:

    I wish organic food was more accessible to families who struggle financially and couldn’t possibly fathom spending much money on fresh produce–let alone organic produce. I just wish that produce was more accessible, period. Makes me want to start another community garden in my city.

    I remember watching that documentary “Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead” and the families who were juicing just seemed so care free about the mounds of fresh, organic produce stock piled in their fridges. It was like, “Anybody can do it! Just eat fresh, organic produce, it’s easy!”. Whenever I see things like that, all I can think about is, what about the families who are struggling to eat?

    I’ve been poor and had to penny pinch every single cent down to a T; canned goods are cheaper and that’s what many food banks resort to. How can low income families eat healthy, too? When they’re struggling to survive, eating organic or even eating healthy is the last thing on their mind. They just need to eat, which is why I think obesity is a problem; cheap food is usually unhealthy.

    Sorry, a bit off topic, I know.

    • I get ya. When I moved to France I was amazed by how cheap their food is here, and because of that I’m a huge veggie girl now. Not to mention French fruit and veg just tastes amazing. I’ve had fried s visit me and their shocked by the prices too. It’s like if it was more affordable you’d have more people eating it. I guess it also helps that junk food is also the kind of thing I don’t really find here. Which sucks because I have a sweet tooth damnit and I get tired of the boulangerie throwing shade at me when I go in every night asking for a brownie. Sometimes a girl just wants some little Debbie. Instead I have to settle on Delichoc (biscuits).

  12. Lilacflowers says:

    Is it just me or does the boy on the left seem much bigger than the boy on the right?

  13. Isa says:

    Reading her blog and comments reminds me of my husband’s ex wife. For the longest time he would overexplain things to me and I finally got annoyed with it enough to point it out. He explained that it was a habit from his first wife.

    • I’m gonna google that now, Isa. I hate when people do that.

      • Isa says:

        Elsa is fluent in five languages and my husband’s ex was fluent in a few…can’t remember how many. My husband explained that things would get lost in translation so he had to explain things to her. Just the way she writes makes me think chris may have to do the same thing. It annoyed me because I thought he thought I was stupid when it had just become a habit for him.

  14. Katie says:

    Is Dave Gandy really only 35? Or is this one of those wink wink nudge nudge Dave Gandy is 35 kind of things?

  15. Maria says:

    I want to hate her. But I can’t.
    She’s perfect.
    Her husband is perfect.
    Her kids are perfect.
    She has the perfect like.
    Bitch.

    • Naddie says:

      Really? I get a needy vibe from her, like, one of those people who are always seeking attention to the point you talk to her just for pity.

  16. aquarius64 says:

    Please, Elsa is using the kids to look like a domestic diva in her blog. She’s still budget GOOP and Jessica Alba in that arena. As for Chris gripping about the paps, he’s letting his wife put the kids out on the information highway via social media; so he looks like a hypocrite here. He probably feels this is the best way to keep his name out there by proxy because his non-Marvel movies are tanking at the box office.

  17. Enn says:

    I don’t understand when this site turned into a messageboard. I thought it was for commenting on gossip.

  18. pnichols says:

    holy crap those babies are big!! omg so cute. she is so tiny. That’s nuts!

    Cute babies! Beautiful Mom!

    Bless EL James, she wants to write the script for the next Fifty Shades movie:

    Now that “Fifty Shades of Grey” has become an international box office phenomenon, author E.L. James is seeking more control over the sequel by writing the script herself. Universal Pictures, which had been resistant to the idea, is currently discussing the potential move with James, who wrote the bestselling erotic trilogy about Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele, Variety has learned.

    Given the success of “Fifty Shades of Grey,” which has so far grossed more than $300 million worldwide, the next logical step would be for the studio to announce the greenlight to its sequel, “Fifty Shades Darker.”

    According to insiders, the delay in the production of “Fifty Shades Darker” is related to the fact that Universal execs and James are still arguing over details. Unlike most successful franchises, which aim to retain the team behind the first film, it appears that “Fifty Shades” will undergo a dramatic creative reshuffling in the weeks to come. Sources close to the project don’t expect director Sam Taylor-Johnson or screenwriter Kelly Marcel to be back for the second installment, though reps for the studio say no official decisions have been made.

    I’m really bummed about Vanilla Ice! I feel like he was doing so well for himself. On the reality show he was on with other celebs, it made me feel really bad for him. He seemed like a sensitive guy with a bad self esteem. When he started doing great with his home make over show, I was so happy for him! I really hope he doesn’t go to prison for this.

  22. JayGee says:

    Elsa is clearly preg, right?! I cant be the only one who has noticed.

  23. tracking says:

    Yeah, it’s annoying when celebrities try to have it both ways. Too cute the way they’re turning toward her so eagerly “whatchya got, mom?” I like that her kitchen looks real.

  24. hopperlea says:

    Elsa and her babies are beautiful. I took a roll of photos a day with my G/G twins. I can’t even imagine the number of pictures I have now.

    It’s soul-crushingly cold in the Midwest, too.
