Me and my girls. It’s been a week and a day with my beautiful squirmy baby girl. I recognize all her little squirms and kicks from when she was on the other side of me and now I get to say “see what I was talking about!” She makes Robert Deniro faces and snorts when she is super determined on the boob. She’s gonna be stronger than me in about a week. Her squeaks and sighs are my favorite noises on earth. Born with a full head of dark hair which made me scream “whoo hoo!” while pushing. And I’ve been screaming Whoo hoo every day since because she’s absolutely perfect and I won the lottery. So grateful to the dream team Maria, Donna, Phoebe, Karolina, Kasey, Mila, Briana, Holly, Widnine, and the fabulous Dr. Dobrenis at Alexandra Cohen for getting her into this world and taking care of us after. It was such a relatively easy birth with a glorious epidural that I forgot I’d still have to recover afterward from what feels like was the Muay Thai fighter from White Lotus kicking the crap out of my cooch. I guess I’ll be healing for a while no matter what kind of magical thinking I did beforehand about being back on the peloton or not eating cookies every day or whatever other hilarious ideas I may have had pre World Changing Forever Day April 2nd. I’m so in love and so tired it’s like the greatest dream but it’s real. John is the best dad I could ever have imagined (he is a diapering/swaddling/bottle washing/breakfast cooking/medicine picker upper/tech support with Baby Brezza handling/dog cuddling so she never feels left out/breastfeeding and pumping helping pro and is at this moment wearing the baby and listening to classical music for babies) and best partner I could have imagined (this man hand fed me crispy rice from Blue Ribbon Sushi in the hospital). Sorry for the run on sentences- I’ve called the pediatrician “the vet” almost 35 times. I love you ESM ❤️❤️❤️

Best birthday of my life. Everyone should have a baby shower with the greatest group of friends and family on Earth for their 41st. Beautiful friends in wigs sending video messages to future lil bébé, mind blowing magic tricks, Peppermint dancing on the Scholastic building rooftop at 2pm on a Saturday, greatest God Parents’ speeches, old new and chosen family, babies in glam rock mullets, and a delicious birthday breakfast of Ina Garten’s French toast cooked with love by my favorite author of a book about the last queen of Hawaii. Little girl now has a brand new set of one-of-a-kind onesies and a library of favorite books from my favorite people (two copies of The Giving Tree means you’ve got the right people around you). I’m forever grateful for all the smiling I’ve done over the last 24 hours and I think I might just stay smiling for a little while. What an antidote for the gray sad scary exhausting unfathomable unmooring winter. As I said yesterday- While it may seem odd at first to have a giant baby shower, I know how incredibly lucky and grateful I feel to have existed in a time and place where I could make the choice and actually get to safely (knock on wood) become a mom at 41. With a fantastic partner. And I think that’s worthy of a proper fucking celebration!

Best first Mother’s Day ever. Bébé Strong MacG got to meet so many of the people I love so so much, including Colin Jessica Jost who wore a parka for their first meeting 😜. On the way over I said “I bet Gena is gonna cry” and we ran into my dear friend and longtime stage manager Gena right away as we walked in and we all proceeded to cry together immediately. Sarah kept hugging Celeste because she couldn’t hug the baby yet. Auntie Erin came by to say hello. We met Lorne who said she’s the future of television (jkjkjk). New genius Jane wrote a baby shoe sketch! Tucker wrote some more amazing jokes for Judge Jeaniney Beany that I got to yell next to the brilliant JAJ as Trump. And to top it off, lil girl was dressed in a fabulous pink dress which was a gift from Marcello and his gorgeous glam queen mother! I’ve been lucky enough to have some beautiful Mother’s Days at SNL with my own mama (including one show hosted by the mother of unintentional baby tees and intentional Nazi Salutes herself, Ms. Elon Musk) but this one takes the cake. I hope bb thinks it’s cool up until she’s 13/14/15/16 when she probably thinks I’m an embarrassing biotch, and then cool again from 17 onward ❤️ Love you babygirl and love you Snl ❤️❤️❤️
Great Saturday in Great Barrington with these America hating terrorists with no jobs being paid by George Soros. The band was no Creed or George Strait, but we had a good time all the same. #WithArmsWideOpen #QueensOfNoKings

Our fabulous nursery with all the help from @westelmkids who worked their magique to make this nursery everything we dreamed of with lots of nods to the people we love the most. Birds! Books! Aunt Vera’s beautiful wall tapestry! And the most comfortable chair ever. Thank you West Elm Kids 😘😘😘 Some important updates: 1)Bébé arrived so I’m less pregnant now 2) The cat went in the crib. And the stroller bassinet (John screamed when he went to move it and saw something moving inside). And drinks the water in our bottle warmer. She is GoldiLuna. #westelmpartner

Meet Father Gary, a Catholic Priest from Chicago who is walking from Pope Leo’s boyhood home in Dolton, IL, to NYC hand-in-hand with the immigrant community. The steps that Fr. Gary takes as he travels across the country remind us that we are a country built by immigrants and long celebrated for our cultural diversity. That’s why Father Gary is calling on everyone – especially faith leaders – to Step Up and Speak Out against this administration’s unjust I.C.E enforcement. Fr. Gary arrives in New York soon and will host a rally near his final destination: The Statue of Liberty. Stay tuned for details about his arrival, and share your family’s story on stepupspeakout.org #StepUpSpeakOut2025 #KeepFamiliesTogether
