The way to Gwen Stefani's heart? Through her hair. Speaking with V magazine for their latest issue, Gwen describes how the closeness that comes with 21-month-old Kingston James McGregor's bedtime routine affects her emotionally.
I’m gonna start crying when I talk about this because it's just so ... it’s so intense. I put him to sleep at night and, you know, I'll be rocking him to sleep and he'll be playing with my hair and ... it's just the most amazing feeling in the world.
Expecting her second child this summer, Gwen, 38, tells the mag that she didn't mind the extensive practice sessions with husband Gavin Rossdale.
It’s fun trying to get pregnant.

I love you Gwen. You have a heart of gold.
But shagging to get knocked is only fun if you are fertile.
Awww, I remember when both my kids used to do that. Especially my son. What is it about boys! It WAS the most amazing thing. I think that is what I miss most about them being babies...rocking them to sleep, singing softly to them, and having them fall asleep in my arms.
I agree with tink1271...what is it with boys? My son who is now 4 still likes to play with my hair, but my daughter who is almost 2...there's no doing. In fact, unless she's sick or has a bopped head, she's just not much of a cuddler. Sweet, but not a cuddler.
I'm so excited to see if Kingston is going to have a little sister (my hunch) or a little brother. I'm also excited to see what they name him/her!
uggamugga, love your name btw, my cousin's son played with his grandmas hair like that for a very long time. too long if you ask me, but boys seem to do that!! My son is special needs so he still does lots of things that a 5 yr old would do and sitting on my lap is still one of them...he is a real mama's boy and always will be!
I cannot wait to see what they name this new baby too. I am hoping for a little girl for Gwen, I think Kingston will make such a wonderful big brother!!
I am so so happy to read that she is rocking him to sleep. I still rock my 21 month old to sleep also! He is 3 days younger than Kingston =)
These are my favorite kind of posts when everyone takes a minute to think about quiet times with their children...or dream of them to come. No hostility, judging, etc. Just a calming mental vacation.
At least that's what this is for me! :)
