Martina McBride: Practical parenting

martina.jpgCountry singer Martina McBride talks to Family Circle magazine about how she strives to not spoil her kids, and the importance of sneaking in some “me time.” McBride, 40, has three daughters Delaney, 12, Emma, 9, and Ava, 2.

I keep my kids from getting spoiled by…”not giving them everything they want. Aside from books and art supplies, the older girls have to buy stuff with the money they earn doing little jobs around the house. My husband, John, and I aren’t materialistic–I drive a ’92 Honda–so the girls still get excited when we stay in a nice hotel room or eat at a great restaurant.”

I sneak in “me time” whenDelaney and Emma get home from school. They’ll watch Ava while I lie down for a 20-minute nap. I take a bubble bath and read after the kids are in bed. It’s important to relax and recharge so you have energy and a positive attitude to give everyone else.

Nielsen, 42, and Ulrich, also 42, have been dating for two years and are “ecstatic” over the arrival of their son. “Everything is fine with him,” Nielsen tells a Dutch newspaper.”He is eating, and he’s just so fine.”

Ulrich echoes the new mother’s thoughts on the Metallica website. “Mother’s doing well, Dad’s in awe, and brothers Layne, Myles, and Sebastian are psyched!”

Denmark natives Ulrich and Nielsen both have children from previous marriages. Ulrich has sons Myles, 8, and Layne, 5. Nielsen has a 16-year-old son named Sebastian.

I’m sure Bryce will get his mother’s outstanding looks and his father’s musical genius. Congratulations to the couple!
