Reese Witherspoon Reveals Son Deacons Aspirations

London's Daily Express reports that Reese Witherspoon has revealed her son's  career goal. �??He wants to be a pizza delivery boy,�?� says the Oscar-winning actress. �??Not that there is anything wrong with that. My daughter wants to be a scientist but they are both at the stage where it changes from one week to the next.�?�

Pizza Hut, however, took the four year old's career hopes seriously. Extra reports that Sandi Karrmann, identified as the "Chief People Officer" of the chain, sent Deacon a letter and some loot, including a Pizza Hut uniform -- "That's just your size," writes Karrmann -- a mini-delivery car -- "For you to polish your driving skills" -- as well as gift cards for Pizza Hut pizzas. Wonder what would have happened if he'd said he wanted to be a Mercedes Benz salesman!

Glamour Magazine Honors Moms in their 2007 ‘Women of Year’ Issue

Jennifer Garner in Glamour Magazine

Actress Jennifer Garner, presidential-trail campaigner and cancer survivor Elizabeth Edwards, and �??Grey's Anatomy�?� creator Shonda Rimes are just three of the twelve amazing women selected for Glamour magazine's highest honor this year.

What do these women have in common, besides all being household names for their various contributions? They are all moms! Jen, who says in the magazine she is �??a bit of a goody-goody,�?� is a role model for celeb (and all) moms trying to balance motherhood with their careers. She often talks candidly about how she juggles her on and off screen roles and tells Glamour that spending time away from daughter Violet, who is turning two in December, �??is hard for me.�?� However, Jen was chosen as woman of the year not just for her candor about the balance all moms struggle with, but for helping children affected by Hurricane Katrina. Marian Wright Edelman, president of the Children's Defense Fund told Glamour, �??[Jen] did something for [New Orleans'] mothers and children, she didn't just come and see.�?�

Elizabeth Edwards, who recently discovered her breast cancer had returned, is not only the wife of Democratic presidential contender John Edwards, but mom to Cate, 25, Emma Claire, nine, and Jack, seven.

Her 2006 memoir, �??Saving Graces,�?� touched the nation, and Elizabeth continues to inspire us, especially when she refused to let her husband end his presidential campaign when they found out her cancer was back last March. Her reason for this is simple: �??When bad things happen, you don't let them get you down,�?� she tells Glamour. Her optimism and dedication to her family is yet another inspiration, and Glamour cites her strength and grace as just two of the components Elizabeth embodies that made her worthy of their honor.

Dubbed a �??McGenius�?� by Glamour, Shonda Rimes is the first African-American woman to create a produce a top-rated TV series. Actress Chandra Wilson, who plays Dr. Bailey on Grey's says that when Shonda, �??walks into a room�?�I just see possibility.�?� Not only has Grey's changed our vocabulary�??McDreamy, McSteamy, va-jay-jay, and �??seriously?!�?� are just some examples�??but Shonda herself is changing the face of television, literally, with her commitment to fostering racial diversity on the small screen. �??I hire the best actors,�?� she told Glamour. �??To reach true equality, people need to stop using race and gender as a means of measuring anything.�?� Shonda has a daughter named Harper, who she adopted in 2003.

Other honorees this year include Marianne Pearl, Donna Karen, Victoria Hale, Toni Morrison, Abigail Breslin, and the four female Ivy League university presidents.

Speaking of Christina, she had her first of three baby showers this past Saturday. The event was for close friends and family, and although the singer has not confirmed the gender of her baby, People.com reports that there was a distinctive theme to the gifts -- the color blue.

Poppy Montgomery’s Wild Baby Shower

"Without a Trace" star Poppy Montgomery and boyfriend, actor Adam Kaufman, celebrated the upcoming arrival of their son with an animal-filled baby shower in late October, Mommywood has learned.

The party, which was attended by Poppy's costars Roselyn Sanchez, Enrique Murciano, Eric Close, and Marianne Jean-Baptiste, as well as actress Elizabeth Berkley and her husband, actor Greg Lauren, featured an animal show with a monkey, a lynx and an alligator as well as a diaper fort courtesy of Huggies (which sponsored the soiree).

Guests noshed on mini-hamburgers, cupcakes, milk shakes, cookies they made at a cookie-decorating station, and a Huggies-themed cake. Mmm!

Poppy is due in her December with her and Adam's first child.
