I saw how important developmental milestones are and how toys can help babies reach them — including with my own son.

Adam [gets on my nerves the most] because he’s so competitive! And Usher is like Switzerland, he’s a little more neutral. And Blake can get on my nerves too, but he’s too funny. But I think the chemistry is better than ever, it’s just great.
