00:01Thank you!
00:03I'm Camoralee Simmons.
00:06Once upon a time, I was a high fashion model.
00:09And today, I am the president and creative director of Fat Fashions.
00:13I'm also the loving mother of two wonderful girls.
00:17If you keep up with my life in the fab lane, then you'll know that I'm in an iron.
00:21Hopelessly in love, and my family is expanding.
00:25New York is fabulous.
00:26My husband has a busy Hollywood life.
00:28Which means we're heading for the hills.
00:30And not just any pad will do.
00:32So we're making a whole new house from scratch.
00:35Running a fashion line, raising my girls, and building a new house.
00:38But I've got way too many balls in the air right now.
00:40And one of them is about to drop.
00:43On this episode of Life in the Fab Lane.
00:45I won't change diapers.
00:47I won't help give a bath.
00:48You're acting real Hollywood.
00:50Maybe we should have like a nurse to teach us how to handle the baby.
00:53How long you plan on leaving that shirt over his face?
00:55You definitely are not passing the class.
00:57We have to have a room for the baby.
01:00I don't like this.
01:01What's this?
01:02Why did you put white furniture in here, James?
01:04No man doesn't give me what I want.
01:08This house has to be ready in three weeks.
01:10Every day over schedule is a day over budget.
01:13There's thousands of the little details.
01:15Does that take thousands of days?
01:16Oh my goodness.
01:17I'm going to labor.
01:19When you're in this kind of pain, it feels like it's never going to end.
01:30As the CEO of Baby Fat, I design clothing, jewelry, fragrances, you name it.
01:34It's a lot of work, but I've come a long way since my days walking the runway.
01:38I'm a mogul and a model.
01:40And best of all, I'm a mom.
01:42I'm Camoralee Simmons, and this is my life in the Fab Lane.
01:45I'm having a baby in three weeks, and a lot of stuff still needs to be done, and I'm a little worried.
02:01So what's next?
02:02What do we need to do for today?
02:04Nikki is my new personal assistant.
02:06She handles everything about my life.
02:08She's like my right-hand person.
02:10I need to get on the nursery.
02:12You should call James.
02:13We don't have a lot of time.
02:14We're kind of down to the wire.
02:15We have to have a room for the baby.
02:17Having a new baby means a new nursery.
02:19And Tyra has introduced me to a really great decorator that she's worked with before.
02:25Hi, James.
02:26It's Camoralee.
02:27Oh, we're going a little crazy.
02:29We're working like always.
02:31And I just thought, a small little thought, we might need a nursery.
02:34We need it quick, like yesterday.
02:36Kate's going to be calling me the line soon.
02:38No, I'm thinking blue.
02:41Boys are so 2009.
02:44Exactly.
02:45Hold on, James.
02:46One second.
02:47Hello?
02:48Hi, what's going on?
02:49James, hold on one quick second.
02:51It's my office.
02:52Hold on one second.
02:53Hold this.
02:54Approvals for the new line.
02:56I'll have Nikki call into your office and try to set it up.
02:58I'm sorry I'm rushing.
02:59I gotta go.
03:00I got another call.
03:01Hello?
03:02Priscilla?
03:03What's going on?
03:04Hold on, James, are you still there?
03:06Where's James?
03:07What phone James is on?
03:08We don't have enough phones here.
03:09I thrive on insanity.
03:11I never stop moving.
03:12Just like my baby.
03:13He kicks and moves and rolls and jumps just like his mama.
03:17We like being busy.
03:18Oh my God.
03:19I'm so sorry.
03:20It was just my office.
03:21Oh, I heard of them art for kids.
03:22We should try that out then.
03:23I'm going to have Nikki call you to follow up.
03:25So I'll see you in a couple of days.
03:27Excellent.
03:28Okay.
03:30Bye.
03:31Wow.
03:32That's a lot.
03:33Well, that's how it is.
03:34New baby.
03:35Too many phones.
03:36I should get rid of a phone or two.
03:38No matter what is going on in my crazy life, my kids are always the number one priority.
03:53So today I'm taking Ming and Aoki to Giggles and Hugs, which is a fun restaurant that has
03:58a little playground and hopefully I can get the girls used to the idea that the baby
04:03brother is on his way.
04:05She saw.
04:06Mom, no.
04:07You're going to break it.
04:08Oh.
04:09All right.
04:10Never mind.
04:11Yoki.
04:12Oh my God.
04:13Why did I sit here?
04:14Mom, you look freaky.
04:15I want to get my face painted.
04:16Mom, totally no.
04:17Please.
04:18Totally no.
04:19Wait.
04:20Hello?
04:21We're bonding.
04:22Don't do it, Mom.
04:23Please.
04:24All right.
04:25Never mind.
04:26Oh, Mommy, a little boy.
04:27Should we get through?
04:28Oh.
04:29Mom.
04:30He just pushed me out of the way.
04:33Yeah.
04:34So I'm talking to Ming and Yoki and all of a sudden this little boy just runs by and
04:39shoves me.
04:41That like, excuse me lady, can you move?
04:44Just...
04:45Is this a boy thing?
04:46Is this how boys are?
04:48Is this how they behave?
04:49I mean, I guess we're all going to have to get used to the idea of having a little boy.
04:52Mom, we'll go see you in the talk.
04:53You go and say hi.
04:54No.
04:55You're a kid.
04:56Kids make friends.
04:57You guys are like dogs.
04:58You play together.
04:59You're like puppies.
05:00Hi.
05:01Oh.
05:02Oh.
05:03I'm not satisfied with that.
05:06Habla espanol.
05:07I mean, Inglés.
05:08Mom.
05:09Don't.
05:10Seriously, Mom, don't.
05:11Okay.
05:12Don't you think this is good practice for having a baby brother?
05:15Yeah.
05:16Yeah.
05:17Because you can be around baby toys.
05:18And look, baby.
05:19Hi, baby.
05:20Mom, stop.
05:21Why stop?
05:22Why stop?
05:23I'm friendly.
05:24Don't do that.
05:25I really want the girls to be excited about having a new baby.
05:29Not just like, oh, the new baby's coming.
05:31I really want them to feel it.
05:34Like, oh, our baby's on the way.
05:36So about the baby diaper responsibility, do you think you're up for the challenge?
05:40No.
05:41I'll tell you every time I can't do.
05:44I can't change diapers.
05:45Wait, you can't?
05:46Or you won't?
05:47I won't.
05:48I won't.
05:49I won't trim nails.
05:50Please don't, yes.
05:51I won't help give a bath.
05:53You can't be like that, Yoki.
05:55You're acting real Hollywood.
05:56Eventually, Yoki, you know that you have to learn how to change a diaper, right?
06:00I changed a diaper.
06:01Yes.
06:02You helped.
06:03You were like almost three, but you definitely helped, and you were very excited, and you
06:07were a very nice sister.
06:09If you won't change a poopy diaper, then what will you do?
06:12Entertain him with my lovely voice.
06:15Your lovely voice.
06:17Heavenly.
06:22Yoki can't keep saying what she's not going to do.
06:25That attitude has got to change.
06:27She's definitely in princess mode, and we want to come down off of that.
06:35This is the grand entry.
06:36My new house has to be ready in three weeks.
06:39Today, I'm taking Nikki and Sandra along to check on the renovations, and Ming and Yoki
06:43are coming by later to get a glimpse of their new house in the making.
06:48Joseph!
06:49Yes, my dear.
06:50How are you?
06:51I'm good.
06:52How are you?
06:53Joseph is my contractor that's responsible for renovating my house.
06:57So this is our entry.
06:58You did all of that?
06:59Well, basically.
07:00Joseph did all this.
07:01My taste and Joseph's taste are very similar.
07:05He loves the best.
07:06He pays great attention to detail, and so do I.
07:10Ooh!
07:11I fit in there.
07:12Call me Betty Crocker, baby.
07:14We're cooking in here.
07:15This is the living room.
07:16This is a French-style home, so they actually research colors.
07:20These are like authentic colors.
07:23Napoleon probably had this in his living room.
07:25You did.
07:26Look outside.
07:27Look outside.
07:28It's inside out there.
07:29Oh, my goodness.
07:32We have to get all this done, Joseph.
07:37And all this is going to be finished, right?
07:38You will see.
07:39It will all come together.
07:43I'm going to labor.
07:45A renovation like this is a huge undertaking, and every day over schedule is a day over schedule.
07:49I haven't seen the kids' rooms yet, but I'm really hoping that they'll be in better shape than the rest of the house.
07:58Here's the girls.
07:59Come on, girls.
08:00You guys want to show Sandra your room?
08:02Yeah.
08:03So this is the kids' wing.
08:10Oh, come on.
08:11This looks like a lot left to do in here.
08:13This is Ming's room.
08:14Oh, my gosh.
08:15Are we ever going to get in, Joseph?
08:17I'm one of those people, if it's on my mind, I got to say it.
08:20And it's definitely on my mind.
08:21Joseph, you sure?
08:22I don't see this being done on time, Joseph.
08:26When is it going to be done?
08:27That's the question.
08:28When can we move in?
08:29We're going to be finishing in a couple, in a few weeks.
08:31You don't have to go home, but you have to get the out of here.
08:36Three weeks.
08:38This baby is coming whether Joseph and the renovations understand that or not.
08:44Baby on board.
08:45Three weeks.
08:46I have been up three days making the baby's room.
08:52What's this?
08:53I don't like this.
08:54Why did you put white furniture in here, James?
08:56No man doesn't give me what I want.
08:58Right now, I feel like a bomb just went off.
09:01We're here to have a baby.
09:04Are you excited?
09:21Yes.
09:22The baby's on its way and the girls and I finally have some time to sit down with James and go over all of our ideas for the new nursery.
09:31Hi girls, how are you?
09:33While Joseph is dealing with the building of the house and all of the details of the house, a nursery designer, he is not.
09:40And that's where James comes in.
09:41He's going to help me design the baby's nursery.
09:44Ah!
09:45Jimmy, I'm afraid.
09:46Here, why don't you guys sit here?
09:48Oh, my back is hurting.
09:50Oh, I'm pregnant lady.
09:51That's hard.
09:52Do not deliver now.
09:53Oh.
09:54I'm not prepared or equipped for that.
09:56The baby's to arrive within a month and I've been hired to put together a nursery.
10:01I'm looking forward to working on this project with them.
10:04What I thought we would do is figure out what type of pieces we want to put in your room.
10:08Elephants are harmless if you don't try to tap them.
10:11In the hot sun, they like to switch their tails back and forth.
10:15And then they do it like this.
10:18My girls are very imaginative and very creative.
10:22So they each have their own ideas of how they want the baby's nursery to look.
10:26It could be like blue and like an ocean.
10:29And he could have all these fish and he could have like the sun sparkling on the ocean.
10:34There's the sun and then it had the ocean.
10:37You can see in the ocean.
10:38We could do a chair, a chair rail of waves.
10:40What do you like, what would you like to see for your baby?
10:42We could do like a story band theme and we have like Humpty Dumpty.
10:47Humpty Dumpty.
10:49Humpty Dumpty.
10:50Doesn't it all go together?
10:51Yeah.
10:52Humpty Dumpty.
10:53Had a great wall.
10:54I think this would be...
10:55Humpty Dumpty had a great wall.
10:56All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put Humpty together again.
11:02No cow jumped over any moon.
11:03The cat in the fiddle, the cow jumped over the moon.
11:06I was a little overwhelmed.
11:08And I didn't know how to interject between this conversation with these three ladies going
11:13back and forth at the table.
11:15So I was kind of quiet.
11:17I should have just really taken charge of this whole meeting.
11:20We have a whale theme.
11:21We have a Humpty Dumpty theme.
11:22Well, she likes a storybook theme.
11:24A storybook theme.
11:25What if in the room I wanted to kind of paint animals on the wall?
11:28Like a giraffe.
11:29And then I was thinking something maybe rich like a chocolate brown or dark brown.
11:33Or a wall accent?
11:34No, furniture.
11:35I don't think it's going to be easy for James to combine all these ideas.
11:38But I'm sure he can pull it off.
11:40It's not realistic to create three different ideas in one room without having some cohesiveness.
11:46Right now, I feel like a bomb just went off.
11:59Hello?
12:00Kimura?
12:01It's Harriet.
12:02Hi, Harriet.
12:04Long time no speak.
12:05Today, I get a call from Harriet Cole.
12:07She's the editor-in-chief of Ebony Magazine.
12:09We want to take a picture of you, Jimen, and the new baby as soon as that baby comes.
12:15Wait a minute.
12:16Let's see.
12:17Okay.
12:18I don't know, Harriet.
12:19I'm about to be a new mother for the third time.
12:22And pumping and shooting with a newborn is very tricky.
12:25If anybody can do it, Kimura can do it.
12:29Yes.
12:30I'll try anything once.
12:31Excellent.
12:32I cannot wait.
12:33So this will be his first Ebony cover.
12:35Yay!
12:36Hi.
12:37Kimura.
12:38You've arrived.
12:39My baby is due any day now.
12:40There's so much stuff that still needs to be done at the house.
12:41James and I are meeting to take a look at the baby's room and his ideas.
12:56Watch your step.
12:57Lady with a baby.
12:58Lady with a baby.
12:59I have been up three days making the baby's room.
13:03I gave you three designs.
13:04There's nothing in here.
13:08Let's start here.
13:09We have a nautical theme, my Parisian circus, and we also have a safari theme.
13:14What's this?
13:15That was when I met with Ming and Aoki and they kept telling me, oh, I like animals.
13:20I like fish.
13:21I like the beach.
13:22Oh, my God.
13:23That's way too literal.
13:24James's interpretation of Ming Lee and Aoki Lee's little plan.
13:27It looked a little like all over the place and crazy.
13:30It's definitely a no.
13:31I'm going to have to tell them they were out of stock on that.
13:33Exactly.
13:34Let's start with this question.
13:35I don't like this because this looks too seashell motif.
13:38Well, that's why I did three presentations.
13:40Why did you put white furniture in here, James?
13:42No, it's...
13:43Wait.
13:44All right.
13:45Kimura.
13:46It's not done with my presentation.
13:47I really want to see dark brown furniture.
13:49Okay.
13:50Well, then here's dark brown furniture.
13:51Not that shade of brown.
13:52Okay.
13:53I'm going to get you another shade of brown before I lose my mind.
13:54I am looking at James's boards and I've only asked him for two.
13:56things.
13:57Brown furniture and animals.
13:59And James is giving me like nothing.
14:02You want dark brown?
14:03I'm going to give you dark brown furniture.
14:05See how easy that is?
14:07I like this one the best.
14:09And I like these things.
14:11And I want one more animal like a lion.
14:13How about a rhinoceros or something?
14:15No.
14:16A lion.
14:17He is a king of the jungle.
14:19I'm a giraffe.
14:20They used to call me chinky giraffe.
14:22That's me.
14:23And we're mixed like zebras.
14:25See?
14:26But I want these painted on the wall.
14:28I don't know why you don't want to give it to me, James.
14:30Life size animals.
14:31I want the baby to sleep.
14:32No man doesn't give me what I want.
14:34I swear to God, I stayed up for two days putting this board together.
14:38And now you want me to destroy him because you want an eight foot giraffe in the room.
14:42We'll put a giraffe right here.
14:43Life size giraffe looking into the crib.
14:45Yes.
14:46So now your baby will never sleep.
14:48Okay.
14:49There we go.
14:51This is our baby's room.
14:55We have a safari theme with zebra and giraffes.
14:58We've changed the furnishing stain to dark stained wood.
15:00Now look at this.
15:01I love this fabric right here.
15:03James, that is polka damn dots.
15:05It's got such a nice textural feel to it.
15:08Look at that.
15:09A little dot.
15:10Can I just have a little dot?
15:11Can I have something?
15:12Can I have some say?
15:13I suppose.
15:14We'll think about that.
15:16That might have to be a little ring bearer pillow.
15:19I'm probably a control freak.
15:21It's a pain.
15:23I try to let go sometimes though, like when I'm sleeping.
15:28Maybe that's tough.
15:30I like this.
15:31This is good.
15:32All right.
15:33Except for I want three animals, the zebra, the giraffe, and the lion.
15:37We have a couple of weeks.
15:39I get the impression that James is not digging what we're looking for.
15:44He is not getting it.
15:46And I really need him to get it and get it quickly.
15:50Joseph, this looks like a lot left to do in here.
15:53Joseph, what's this?
15:54And this?
15:55Is that illegal?
15:56Oh my goodness.
15:57Are we ever going to get in, Joseph?
15:59We're here to have a baby.
16:01The baby's on his way.
16:03You can hear the baby's heart.
16:05I'll see you tomorrow.
16:09Don't cry, baby girl.
16:11Look at this girl.
16:12Look at that.
16:13Oh.
16:14So fabulous, fabulous.
16:20So fabulous, fabulous.
16:26There's so much going on.
16:27The house renovation.
16:28The nursery design.
16:30I have the Ebony shoot coming up.
16:32Being pregnant, the girls.
16:34I'm exhausted.
16:35My baby's coming any minute, and I still am not quite sure if the girls are 100% ready
16:41for him.
16:43Hi.
16:44Oh my goodness.
16:45I'm so happy we got the start on the baby's room.
16:49That really takes a load off my shoulders, because at least, if nothing else is ready,
16:53that will be ready.
16:54But I'm a little concerned because, you know, Ming is like the bigger sister and feeling
16:57like, I'm so excited to help, and I want to feed him, and I want to change the diaper.
17:02But Yoki's very like, uh-uh.
17:05Well, you know, Ming has experience.
17:07She's done this once.
17:08But Ming was little when Yoki was born, and she was helping, and Yoki's a little older,
17:12and I feel like she's a little like, you should change my diaper, Mommy.
17:15Uh-uh.
17:16She just hasn't experienced yet.
17:17You know Yoki would be the first one to jump in there.
17:19Maybe we should have, like, a nurse.
17:20You know, like, they have baby nurses who come in and kind of train you about diaper changing
17:25and how to handle the baby.
17:27So the girls can practice being, like, great big sisters.
17:30Aw.
17:31That's good.
17:32I think it'll make Yoki feel definitely more comfortable with the whole situation
17:34and warm her up to it.
17:36I'll go look that up now.
17:37We need that stat.
17:38You got it.
17:47Hey.
17:48Hi, Melissa.
17:49Welcome back.
17:50How are you doing?
17:51Today I'm going to be placing the crib order and the swivel rocking chair for the new nursery.
17:56I've only got 14 days until the house renovation, and the room design needs to be done.
18:00I met with Kimora, and we finally nailed down the baby's room.
18:04I wanted to go ahead and place the order.
18:05Okay.
18:06Okay.
18:07I do love the cherubini crib.
18:09I don't want all the girly stuff on it, so I think we'll just do the panel and we'll change the finish to, like, a French walnut.
18:15Overall, I want it to be dark wood.
18:17Very masculine.
18:18I've got to butch the baby up.
18:19I need to get this furniture faster than three weeks.
18:23Can you rush the order for me?
18:25We will definitely try our hardest.
18:27Kimora has a lot of needs and wishes, and I'm trying to do my best to accommodate all of these wishes.
18:32I brought my presentation board, and I'm just to, so we can go and highlight some of the fabric orders.
18:37It's a huge undertaking, trying to get all the furnishings and accessories placed and delivered on time, on target.
18:45It's going to be very close.
18:47I want to start with the chair first.
18:49Swivel rocker and a glider.
18:51I love this tailored look will be as well.
18:53And you want the same fabric?
18:54No, I want to do the linen.
18:55Or do you want the contrast?
18:56It'll be the linen.
18:57I want to band the skirt and the chair with the same banding.
19:00Okay.
19:01So a little diamond banding.
19:03You're going to provide us all the fabrics.
19:04All right.
19:05I'll ship them to my office so I can check them in, and then I'll just drive them over to you.
19:08I'm going to need a lot of accessories.
19:10The room is blue and white, and the drapes are blue, plait, and chocolate brown.
19:14Oh, very cool.
19:16This would be great next to the baby chair.
19:18I love those.
19:19I love the giraffe.
19:20I love the lion.
19:21All right.
19:22Why don't we make some phone calls today and see if we can get this furniture ordered?
19:25Yeah, so I'm going to be calling you all the time.
19:27Don't worry.
19:28Don't worry.
19:29I've got to get this rolling as soon as possible and pray that it all shows up on time.
19:34Oh, shh.
19:43Joseph!
19:44Hi, Kimora.
19:45How are you, my dear?
19:46Because if life is not crazy enough with the new baby coming, I'm also overseeing the renovations
19:51of my new house.
19:52Last time I stopped by, things looked not quite like they were moving along fast enough,
19:58so I'm stopping by to see if we've made some progress.
20:01These are brand-news concerts.
20:02I think we needed to have some nice anchors.
20:05We're almost done actually putting the wax on.
20:07This is the last coat.
20:08The living room is done.
20:11Very nice.
20:12So as I'm walking through the house, I'm totally feeling it.
20:15I can imagine us living here.
20:17It's beautiful.
20:18Oh, I'm so excited, Joseph.
20:21Oh, my goodness.
20:22Joseph, can you just imagine me going to the bathroom, and you look in and wave, hey.
20:32Never mind, let's not use me.
20:33But can you?
20:34Mingli is going through the bathroom, and I walk by, and hey, and she's wiping.
20:38Yeah, but the look of this is gorgeous, isn't it?
20:41No.
20:42Wow.
20:43You don't think it should be frosted?
20:44It matches.
20:45Joseph, when you go to the bathroom with your wife, when she's over here and you're over
20:48there, then she waves.
20:49But this is a private bathroom.
20:51And I just feel like with the gap, you can hear everything, and then with the clear glass,
20:56you can see everything.
20:57I need a little frost or a little wood or a little something so that it's not like,
21:04I see you.
21:05Hi.
21:06Hi.
21:07Look.
21:08Look.
21:09Oh, it sure isn't private.
21:10Can you hear me?
21:11Nikki!
21:12Don't leave anything to the imagination.
21:15Oh, oh.
21:16Not quite right.
21:17Woo-hoo!
21:18It's, like, totally weird, and I'm not so sure I can live with it.
21:22What a diamond's in here, and she walks through to get my toothbrush.
21:25I'm like, how secure, Nikki?
21:26I would never really kill you.
21:31Joseph, what's this?
21:33And this?
21:34This is, that's where your sconces are.
21:36It's so low!
21:37Look at me.
21:38I'm 5'4".
21:39That's low.
21:40That's too low, Joseph.
21:42Oh, my goodness.
21:43As I'm looking around, I realize it's a lot of stuff that still needs to be done, and I'm
21:49a little worried.
21:50Why do they put this here, Joseph?
21:51Well, we're just basically doing some touch-ups.
21:53Little touch-ups everywhere, Kimora.
21:55Why are all those dots on the ceiling?
21:57The entire ceiling is going to be redone.
21:59How long is that going to be?
22:00We'll do it in one day.
22:06Joseph, this looks like a lot left to do in here.
22:08They're going to clean up all the carpet maintenance.
22:10We're going to clean, and we're going to keep all of the extra carpets.
22:13And they're going to power wash outside, right?
22:15And they're going to clean, pick up all the paper.
22:17You sure they're going to have all that done, Joseph?
22:19Yes, Kimora.
22:20Everything is like, yes, Kimora.
22:22Yes to the time.
22:23Yes to the renovations.
22:24Yes what, Joseph?
22:26I mean, there's so much stuff that looks done, and then there's so much stuff that doesn't.
22:30What is it?
22:31Like, I think if we counted every little detail, it's probably like 2,500 little details.
22:34There's thousands of little details that we have to do.
22:37Does that take thousands of days?
22:39Thousands of hours?
22:40No, it's not.
22:41Once we clean everything up, we're going to go through every room, make a punch list, and basically adjust everything.
22:45I have a lot on my plate right now with the new baby, and the girls, and everything that's going on.
22:50I'm completely exhausted.
22:52I desperately need Joseph to get the house done, and get it done on time, and get it done immaculately.
22:59You have a couple of weeks.
23:01Kimora, trust me.
23:03It'll be done quicker than you think.
23:05I promise.
23:06Okay.
23:07Take care.
23:13Ah!
23:15It's 4 in the morning, and I'm checking myself into the hospital.
23:18We're here to have a baby.
23:21It is time.
23:23Somebody push the button.
23:26Well, it says it can't be over 4,000 pounds.
23:29Should I get off?
23:30Aw.
23:31I don't know who's more nervous, me or my family.
23:34Okay.
23:35Everybody is very excited.
23:37We made it.
23:38It's a very special time for the family, and we're very, very happy.
23:42Jaiman's like some kind of film-making auteur, and Ming and Aoki are being so sweet.
23:46You can hear the baby's heartbeat like this.
23:50They look beautiful.
23:52Thank you, I love you.
23:53This is how I did for you.
23:54Sorry.
23:55Not 50 to choose.
23:56You coming from a party?
23:57Did you bring me a martini?
23:58I'm not drinking until you're delivered.
23:59How you doing?
24:00Hi.
24:01Hello, sir.
24:02How you doing?
24:03I love you.
24:04I love you.
24:05Come around.
24:06I love you.
24:07Bye, Mommy.
24:08I love you.
24:09She needs to go home with you, okay?
24:10I'll see you tomorrow.
24:11Don't cry, baby girl.
24:12Get it rolling.
24:13Thanks for tucking me in, okay?
24:14Bye.
24:15Bye.
24:16Bye.
24:17Bye.
24:18Bye.
24:19Bye.
24:20Bye.
24:21Bye.
24:22Bye.
24:23Bye.
24:24Bye.
24:25Bye.
24:26Bye.
24:27Bye.
24:28Bye.
24:29Bye.
24:30Bye.
24:31Bye.
24:32Bye.
24:33Come on.
24:34How are you feeling?
24:3510 minutes, maybe.
24:36I like, I think I'm a control freak, I'm coming in grips with that now.
24:41This is an out-of-control environment, so.
24:47You're with me, in spirit?
24:50No.
24:51You cannot say that right now.
24:52I'm going to grab on you like a startled monkey in a minute and then you can say you're
24:57with me in spirit.
25:00Contractions are now three minutes of heart.
25:06Why did I get into this?
25:11It's all his fault.
25:16I was so loved.
25:18That's what happened.
25:23The head's come down a little bit.
25:24She's feeling a lot more discomfort.
25:26I'm going to go change into my scrubs, okay?
25:28I'll be right back.
25:29Okay.
25:30I'll be here.
25:31When you're in this kind of pain, it feels like it's never going to end.
25:34Like you're going to be in agony for the rest of your life.
25:37That is if you live.
25:39I guess I'm alive.
25:42Congratulations.
25:44It's time to bring the baby nurse in.
25:47How long you plan on leaving that shirt over his face?
25:49You definitely are not passing the class.
25:51My family and I are doing a cover photo shoot for Ebony Magazine.
25:54Let's get moving so we can get shooting.
25:57Chance to pump every hour.
25:58Every hour?
25:59Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
26:00Are you crazy?
26:01No milk, no photo.
26:02You all are upsetting me and a woman cannot have proper milk let down under stress.
26:07We're here to have a baby.
26:08Well, this is it.
26:09Nine months of waiting and the baby's on his way.
26:24Full steam ahead.
26:25I guess I'm alive.
26:26I guess I'm alive.
26:27Dad!
26:28Oh, he's beautiful.
26:29Dad!
26:30Dad!
26:31Dad!
26:32Dad!
26:33Dad!
26:34Dad!
26:35Dad!
26:36Dad!
26:37Dad!
26:38Dad!
26:39Congratulations.
26:40Congratulations.
26:41Congratulations.
26:42Congratulations.
26:44I had a baby boy.
26:51His name is Kenzo Lee Hunsu.
26:54He's just like his mama.
26:58He's a little fussy.
26:59Not quite like that.
27:00More like.
27:01Oh, my God.
27:02He cannot be cuter.
27:03Really.
27:04Look how perfect his face is.
27:06Yeah.
27:07Oh, my God.
27:08So, little baby Kenzo is here.
27:23And he's so adorable and so sweet.
27:26And it was love at first sight.
27:28And I'm so in love.
27:29And I never thought I could love a little man as much as I do him.
27:42Hi.
27:43Hi.
27:44This is Wendy.
27:45Now the baby Kenzo's here.
27:46It's time to bring the baby nurse in.
27:48Tell me about your brother.
27:50Hi, my name is Kenzo Lee.
27:52Does he look like that?
27:53Oh, my word.
27:54No.
27:55What does he look like?
27:56Stars on the face.
27:57Stars on the tiger.
27:58Wendy.
27:59We need to get you some more babies.
28:00This one is ugly.
28:01Wendy's dolls definitely don't look like Kenzo.
28:02I mean, Kenzo is a beautiful, sweet, spirited little baby.
28:17A sweet little baby.
28:19And Wendy's dolls look a little...
28:21Mmm.
28:22I never guaranteed cute babies.
28:23Oh, my goodness.
28:24So, what does Kenzo do an awful lot of right now?
28:26Crying.
28:27Oh, really?
28:28He does.
28:29He eats a lot.
28:30Did your brother take bottles?
28:31Yes.
28:32And do you remember how to hold a baby when they're given a bottle?
28:34Yes.
28:35Right.
28:36Oh, Ming did great.
28:37Ming is instantly into mini mommy mode.
28:38But Yoki's a little more like, yeah, yeah, I have dolls like this.
28:39It's no big deal.
28:40So, what if it falls on the floor?
28:41Yoki, sweetie, honey, if that was your brother, how long do you plan on leaving that shirt
28:58over his face while you're putting those arms through there?
29:00He's gonna be dead.
29:01You're really learning how to do it, Yoki.
29:03It's not just a doll.
29:04You definitely are not passing the class.
29:07Do you guys change diapers at all?
29:09Yes.
29:10I do.
29:11Yeah.
29:12Ming, you do?
29:13You keep the old diaper on, and you get a new diaper, and then you lift it up like this.
29:17And then I'll just poop.
29:19Put the baby's legs here together because they need a hand away.
29:24Ming, you are an expert diaper changer.
29:26Very good.
29:27Absolutely perfect.
29:28You put the legs together once the new diaper goes.
29:33Oops, a little backwards.
29:35You put the wipe under his butt, and with your hand, and your wipe.
29:40You've been paying attention when Mommy's working.
29:42You are a rock star.
29:43Excellent job.
29:44Now, are you gonna actually do this for your brother?
29:47Miss, I'm not gonna.
29:49Yeah.
29:50You guys know how to do this.
29:52So, tonight, you guys get to do the night shift.
29:54Fine, I'll do the night shift, and you have to leave Kendall in our room.
29:57Okay.
29:58I'll put him right there in his little bassinet.
30:01Yoki has completely turned around.
30:03First, she's not changing the diaper, and now she wants Kendall to sleep in her room so she can take care of him all by herself through the night.
30:09I'm very proud of my girls, and they definitely win the gold star for sistership.
30:13There you go.
30:14There you go.
30:15Now all I need is for the house to be built, the nursery to be designed, the ebony chute to go off without a hitch.
30:21It's a little chaotic.
30:23Last time I went to check on the house, it was not ready.
30:29Close, but no cigar.
30:30And now that baby Kenzo is here, we all need a place to live.
30:34Like, now.
30:37We are pushing as hard and as fast as we can, working 10, 12 hours a day, seven days a week, to meet the target date.
30:47Hello, Kimara.
30:57Hi, Joseph.
30:58I have some news for you.
31:00There's still a few areas that still need a little bit of work, and I don't know if we're going to be able to get you moved in on the target date.
31:08What do you mean?
31:09We'll have a few odds and ends that are not quite complete yet.
31:14I don't understand.
31:19We're almost there now, but we still have a few details that we need to basically address.
31:25We are very, very, very close.
31:27In a week?
31:28Or two?
31:29Within a week.
31:30I know Joseph wants to deliver a perfectly built, immaculately beautiful house, and I really want nothing less than that.
31:38I mean, after all, Versailles wasn't built in a day.
31:41Was it?
31:42I'm probably talking about three or four days max.
31:45Joseph's skating on thin ice.
31:47He tells me three or four days.
31:48Now I need him to deliver.
31:50I'm very alarmed, concerned, confused, because with a life like mine, there's no time for maybe.
31:55My old friend, Harriet Cole, the editor of Ebony Magazine, wants our whole family to be on the cover.
32:08So it'll be me, Jaiman, Aoki, Ming, and baby Kenzo.
32:11How are you?
32:12Congratulations.
32:13Look at that beautiful angel.
32:14How are you?
32:15Hello, beautiful.
32:16Hello, beautiful.
32:17Look at how pretty I remember.
32:18I'm excited about this opportunity, but I think it's going to be a little tricky because I'm breastfeeding and pumping at the same time, and adding that to an all-day photo shoot might be a lot.
32:23Michelle, I'll take you where you're going to be, and then would you like to see what the sets are?
32:40You should take me where we're going to be.
32:42Excellent.
32:43And then we should get ready, and then...
32:44Okay, and then you'll see the sets after?
32:45Yeah.
32:46Okay, that's fine.
32:47I thought that from the moment Kimora walked in, she would want to see what each set is and do a big wardrobe review, and there might be some questions about it.
32:56But Kimora's saying, please, just do your job, and I'll follow your direction.
33:01I think it's the new mom thing.
33:03The new Kimora.
33:05Chill Mom.
33:06Fabulous.
33:07Oh, no, no, no, wait a minute.
33:09Wait a minute.
33:10Girl, what are you putting on her face?
33:12Who brought you here?
33:13Johnny?
33:14They don't get nothing on their face.
33:16Nothing?
33:17Nothing.
33:18Will you turn around and tell the people in front of Jesus, do you wear makeup on set?
33:21No.
33:23Nobody does proper little black girl better than me.
33:27They know how to pinch their cheeks and cold water it up.
33:29So, yeah, they only need hair.
33:31Let's get moving so we can get shooting.
33:37We have an incredibly tight schedule.
33:39The homeowners have given us a heart out of 6 o'clock, which means starting at about 5.30, definitely by 5.45, I will be shepherding people out.
33:48Oh, the baby! The mama loves the baby! The life is all about the baby!
33:58The plan is to photograph Jaiman and Kenzo first, because the boys are always ready first.
34:03Oh, look, he has his eyes on the camera already.
34:05He's like, oh, he knows what he's doing. He's like, I got this.
34:09The miracle is going to be after we've finished, at that exact moment, precisely, Kimora's gonna be ready, and then we'll do the whole family.
34:16When you re-enter the workforce as a working mother and you can't be with your baby all day long, you have to pump while you're also feeding.
34:32Right now, I have to eat, drink, pump, like every hour.
34:36It's like a medieval contraption.
34:38Working mothers everywhere, they have a cooler and a pump.
34:42Finished product.
34:43Fresh from the cow.
34:47Hey, girl.
34:48What's going on?
34:49She's almost ready.
34:51She was almost ready a half hour ago.
34:53She has to pump every hour.
34:54Every hour?
34:55Yes.
34:56Wow.
34:57She's almost done, though, and then she'll get dressed and then we'll be out.
34:59I need her now, please.
35:01Tell her, tell her I need to document this.
35:03Okay.
35:04Okay.
35:05Right after the pump.
35:06With all of her fabulosity.
35:07Soon.
35:08Okay.
35:09Please.
35:10I have an hour and 45 minutes to complete this shoot.
35:12So.
35:13Let me get more now.
35:19When you pump, it's all about the let down.
35:22Not let down as in disappointment.
35:25Let down as in calm, relaxed meditation.
35:28You have to be like that in order to get the milk out or it just won't come.
35:33It's a whole psychological thing.
35:35I'm a little, um, barely challenged right now.
35:39I have to focus and meditate.
35:41It's very hard to do.
35:43The sound makes it easier.
35:44Soothing.
35:45Oh.
35:46Two minutes away.
35:47Tell him we'll be there in two minutes.
35:50Oh.
35:51I like to remember to breathe in situations like this because we have an incredibly tight schedule.
36:00We're pumping.
36:01You're not pumping.
36:02Are you crazy?
36:03You all are upsetting me and a woman cannot have proper milk let down under stress.
36:08Open the door.
36:09Open the door.
36:10Do you not see?
36:11Yeah.
36:12That's nothing.
36:13Come and try.
36:14No milk.
36:15No photo.
36:16That's all there is to it.
36:17Close the door now.
36:19Clamming the door.
36:20We are about to be on our shot number one.
36:27This photo shoot is a bust.
36:30The Fabulous Fabulous.
36:35The Fabulous Fabulous.
36:48My family and I are doing a cover photo shoot for Ebony Magazine.
36:53The trouble is we have to coordinate all of the cast of a normal photo shoot with my pumping
36:58schedule and so far we haven't even gotten one shot.
37:01Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
37:04We're pumping.
37:05They have given us a heart out of six o'clock and I have an hour and 45 minutes to complete
37:10this shoot.
37:11They're pumping and trying on jewelry.
37:13Imagine.
37:14True multitasking.
37:16I have to be in model mode, business mogul mode, and mom mode all at the same time.
37:21That's me.
37:22I'm the hyphenate.
37:24Model mogul mom.
37:25I'm trying to catch the drugs.
37:27Catch the drugs.
37:28See the things that mommy has to go through?
37:30I did it for you too.
37:31I carried you everywhere with me.
37:33I worked, I pumped, and I fed.
37:36This is a sacrifice of being a mother.
37:38See why I can't be a rock star?
37:41Mommy!
37:42Finally, now we can go take the picture.
37:47We can bring that down a little bit.
37:49That one right there.
37:50Amora, I love the baby's breathing.
37:52If you can have the baby's head going toward the camera, that's great.
37:55We're very excited.
37:56Shot number one!
37:58There you go.
38:00As soon as we start to get the shot, of course, Kenzo starts crying.
38:08Because that's what babies do.
38:10They cry.
38:19You're snapping.
38:20Babies don't understand, like, shhh.
38:23Smile.
38:24They don't get that.
38:25It's like...
38:26Okay, okay.
38:27Shhh.
38:29He's like, where is the breast?
38:31I'm back.
38:32Keep that.
38:33Good.
38:34Yeah, that's nice.
38:35That's nice.
38:36One more time with that.
38:37Grab each other again.
38:39I like that expression.
38:41Oh, that's a nice one.
38:42Great.
38:43We got it.
38:44We need to move on.
38:45We have to get out of here soon.
38:46Let's go.
38:51Finally, everything is great.
38:54Kenzo's not crying.
38:55And then Nikki comes and tells me it's time to pump.
38:57A mother's work is never done.
38:59Where'd your mommy go?
39:00She went to go to pump.
39:03She'll be back in a minute, right?
39:05Will she?
39:09When Mother Nature calls, I come a running.
39:14Okay.
39:15We're ready.
39:16Good job.
39:17Good job, right?
39:18Good job.
39:19Okay, time waits for no man or woman.
39:20Back to set.
39:21We go.
39:22Taiwan, can you bring your body closer to Kimura?
39:25That's all.
39:26You should take a lot of pictures.
39:28Yeah.
39:29Because he's going to start screaming, and at least you can drop in the baby before he loses
39:32it.
39:33Okay, right here.
39:35Good.
39:36What's the baby?
39:37You knew what family you were coming into.
39:41He's born?
39:42Photo shoot.
39:43We have a new baby, and sometimes that's an unhappy baby,
39:48but always to be close to mama, to be close to the boobs,
39:52and to get lots of milk makes him happy.
39:59We got it! We got it!
40:01I came, I pumped, I conquered.
40:04We are leaving.
40:13The nursery is finally done.
40:17Initially, the concept of the room was to keep it simple and understated,
40:21and I wanted it to be very masculine.
40:24But Kimora kept insisting on wanting cartoon animals,
40:27which I was always opposed to from the beginning.
40:30But, you know, she's the client, and overall she won.
40:34But I'm really happy with it anyways.
40:36It gave it a little touch of color, so it worked out.
40:39Kimora.
40:40Kimora.
40:42Welcome to your nursery.
40:50What in the...
40:51Can you explain the red clock? This is like Dr. Seuss.
40:53It's peekaboo.
40:56It's like a peekaboo clock.
40:57Every time Kenza wakes up, you go,
40:59look it, I have your little blanket, your little stuffed animal,
41:01put whatever you want.
41:02But why the red? Is that like the pop?
41:04Yeah, I needed a pop of color in here.
41:05And now that we have all these hand-painted animals,
41:08I think it adds a little bit of color.
41:09James didn't want animals on the wall.
41:11But that was a fight.
41:12He was not gonna win.
41:14Do we really need the safari pillows?
41:17This is very leopard.
41:18Can we give this one to Aoki?
41:19If you want.
41:22Okay, let me take it all in.
41:30I love it.
41:31I'm really happy.
41:32This is so nice.
41:33You did a great job.
41:34You did a great job.
41:39You did a great job.
41:40I was really wondering.
41:42There was a lot of drama with differing opinions,
41:44but I've got to say in the end, James came through.
41:46Oh, my God.
41:47I know these people.
41:48Oh, look.
41:49That was so beautiful of you.
41:50Oh, that's me.
41:51I clean up good.
41:52No, you look so happy.
41:53It looks very nice.
41:54Like, hey, hey, baby.
41:55I love it.
41:56Kenzo's gonna love it.
41:57I'm happy.
41:58It's been a great experience, but I think I need a 30-day downtime.
42:01We love it, team.
42:02They love it.
42:03Damn, I'm good.
42:04My baby's room is fantastic.
42:05I love it.
42:06It's like King Kenzo's castle.
42:07Or maybe he's a prince.
42:09On to the next one.
42:10And the rest of the house.
42:11Joseph did it.
42:12He pulled it off.
42:13It's beautiful.
42:14Every attention to detail has been a great place.
42:16It's beautiful.
42:17It's beautiful.
42:18It's beautiful.
42:19It's beautiful.
42:20It's beautiful.
42:21It's beautiful.
42:22It's beautiful.
42:23It's beautiful.
42:24It's beautiful.
42:25It's beautiful.
42:26It's beautiful.
42:27It's beautiful.
42:28It's beautiful.
42:29Every attention to detail has been paid.
42:33No expense has been spared.
42:35And it looks absolutely gorgeous.
42:37And I can tell my family's gonna be so happy here.
42:40It's just what I wanted.
42:42I love it.
42:44It took a while for us to get here, but now it's a palace fit for royalty.
42:51Next on Kimora Life in the Family.
42:54It's finally time for the big move from New Jersey.
42:56That's going.
42:57That's going.
42:58We're helping people in need.
42:59This is going out.
43:00Welcome to the community feedback.
43:02Everything you touch today is going to make a difference for another boy and girl.
43:07Everything with the blue sticky is being packed and wrapped.
43:10Shania is going to be overseeing the move to LA.
43:12Where's the truck?
43:13What's the status?
43:14What's the best way to get that?
43:16You are the truck driver.
43:17You're asking me?
43:18This is what you do for a living.
43:19Do I ask you how to design the jeans?
43:21They have scaffolding in the middle of the room for three days.
43:24This is costing me money every day.
43:26These people are here.
43:27Everything that can go wrong has gone wrong.
43:29I feel worse now than I do at a fashion show.
43:31I've relied on you.
43:32Please don't, please don't say you feel worse.
43:34No blackberry charger.
43:35No treadmill.
43:36Nobody knows how to disassemble nothing.
43:38And you think it's funny.
43:40It ain't funny.
43:41This has just turned into a disaster.
43:43What?
43:44Get in the fab lane at...
