Apr 5 Submitted by admin on Mon, 2010 04 05 15:22 The "Real Housewives of New York" Alex McCord and husband Simon van Kempen's new parenting book will sure give people something to talk about. The new book is called "Little Kids Big City: Tales From A Real House In New York City."

"Throughout my pregnancy, I gave into every craving I felt," admits the Housewife in one chapter of the tome, which will hit bookstands April 6th. "When I wanted to have a drink, I did."

And this includes the night she went into labor with Francois: in fact, McCord says she was sipping on champagne when Simon escorted her to the hospital.

The duo also discusses bringing newborn Johan (when he was just 48 hours old) to the uber fancy Mercer Kitchen while mom and dad had drinks.

"We're very lucky that we're able to pay our nanny extra for two evenings a week to go out," shares Alex.

Au contraire, say sources close to the fam. An insider with "Housewife" connections dishes that Alex may be a bit confused on the amount of time the duo spend outside their Brooklyn townhouse in the evenings. "They definitely go out A LOT during the week," says the source. "They'll go to practically any event to be seen."

This couple is already bizarre honestly, I don't find any of this info in their book shocking at all.
