Jennifer Lopez: Singer, Actress, Dancer, Designer, Mom
Jennifer Lopez dabbles in a bit of everything, and is quite successful in doing so. Now, she can add "mom" to her list of accomplishments.
Lopez and husband Marc Anthony welcomed twins Max and Emme in February. Until recently, the couple didn't have a nanny to help them out with their bundles of joy; they did it all themselves.
"I did it for a long time but we started using a nanny a few weeks ago," says Lopez, 39, to People. "[Most days] I get up early with them. Then when the nanny comes, I can take a shower and give them their breakfast. She's there to help me get things done."
Their mornings together are her favorite time with the twins.
"When they see you and have that big smile on their face - I live for that," she told People. "And when I put them to bed at night and they melt in your arms. I give them a bottle and wind it down. I say, 'It's time for beddy-bye.' I hold them and sing a little song. By the time you know it, they are asleep."
Lopez is happy with every aspect of motherhood; even her post-baby body, according to People.
"We like to eat!" she said. "I think you have to love yourself and indulge when you want to, as well as be happy and just have a healthy attitude towards it."
"Marc loves the way I look!" she added.
When asked about getting back to work, Lopez said she's taking it one day at a time.
"It's gonna be a learning experience. How will I do both? I try to take breaks from work," she told People. "I'll do a little work with the choreographers and then come back. I try to spend every free moment with the babies."
