I'm so pleased to read that Beyonce isn't too famous to breastfeed in public. I expressed and bottle fed Mimmy in public since she was a week old, but hopefully Bee's star power will have a greater effect for breastfeeding mothers who choose to whip out the boob in public.
Anyway, who would dare tell Sasha Fierce to cover up?
Here's one for Babies with iPads:
Our favourite app is MusicTandem, which compiles playlist/music channels from YouTube videos by artist. Here, Mimmy's watching Sesame Street's Do De Duckie with Ernie, a reggae-inspired Rubber Duckie tune. It's enough to get a 7 month old up on her feet. Next: some sweet dancehall moves!
Pretty baby Blue has been revealed on her very own Tumblr! And what a cutie she is.
PS Loving mummy Beyoncé's matching nail colour!
I've been so busy that I can't believe it's been months since I last blogged on Minding Mimmy. It seems like yesterday that I was linking to Beyonce's pregnancy news and now Blue Ivy Carter is already out in the world! 
I'll try to blog better, but when I'm not able to get to a computer, I'm still fiddling away on my iPad, posting to Pinterest. Right now, I'm planning a polka dot first birthday for Mimmy in June, keeping a record of all the baby essentials a new mum needs and even bookmarking gorgeous pieces for Mimmy's toddler wardrobe. I'm sure she'll be ready for those clothes before I know it!
Personalised kids' products store Mooo is celebrating its 5th birthday with some cool printable activities!
There are bookmarks, masks, door knob hangers and more - simply personalise with your child's name and print!
Plus, there's a chance to win one of five $100 vouchers! All you and your kids have to do is download, print and colour in one of Mooo.com.au's characters, take a creative photo in a birthday setting, then upload the pic to Mooo's Facebook page.
How would I spend $100? I'd love to get Mimmy a puzzle with her name, as well as the numbers and shapes puzzles.

Above: Combi Magical Compact Baby Carrier
A story in yesterday's Sydney Morning Herald says pathologists are warning that baby slings could be a suffocation danger. Looking closer at the story though, is not the issue that the sling was under the mother's clothing?
Personally, I opted for the Combi Magical Compact Baby Carrier instead of a sling, which allows me to carry Mimmy in the cradle position until her neck is strong enough to sit in the face-in position. She isn't as close to my body as she would be if we had a sling, but it is great for taking her out in areas where there isn't easy stroller access, and with four positions, Combi claims the Magical Compact can be used until she's two years old.
The Gap Australia Casting Call has now closed, with the eight finalists expected to be announced anytime now (the website said September 16, which was three days ago).
If you didn't get a chance to enter your cutie pie into the competition, don't worry, there's still a chance for your baby to get a leg up in his/her modelling career.
Practical Parenting magazine's Cover Cutie competition is still open for babies up to 12 months and toddlers up to 3 years old. Winners in each category receive $5000 cash, a 12-month modelling contract with Brats Models and will appear on the cover of Practical Parenting magazine.
If you think your gorgeous baby or toddler could be the next Cover Cutie, pick up the October issue of Practical Parenting to find your unique entry code and enter before October 18.

I love a good tumblr, and as a former mean girl, Suri's Burn Book cracks me up.
