What’s black and white and read all over? A newspaper. What’s green and tan and pregnant all over? Jessica Alba! That’s right kiddies, the very desirable and very pregnant actress, Jessica Alba, is going GREEN, GREEN, GREEN!!! 

Alba has gone on record with her commitment to set a good example for her unborn child, so that they will grow up respecting the environment.  She said, “I drive a Prius and I try to recycle as much as I can, I bought a house, and I’m doing all eco-friendly renovations. Most of my furniture is old, and I’m refurbishing it. “I’m even taking stuffing from old couches and making my pillows out of that. Kids are going to do just about anything - I’ve seen them put cockroaches in their mouths - so I want to make things as non-toxic as possible, within reason. I’m not going to be a crazy person about it, but I think it’s important to be aware of it.”

Hmm? Well I don’t know about that cockroach thing, but everything else sounds pretty amazing to me. Truthfully though, I’m a little jealous of toddler Alba and his/her natural born luckiness! Not only does Jessica’s kid get to have the hottest mom ever, but now he/she also gets to be Super Eco-Baby! I guess that’s better than being Toxic Waste Baby or Non-Biodegradable Baby. But Jessica, if you teach your kid to blog we’re gonna have to sit down for a chat. Green or not, I don’t want Super Eco-Baby stealing my thunder!
