Drew Barrymore Introduces Daughter Frankie

Drew is the cover feature on the new issue of People Magazine on stands this Friday! Her and Will share family pictures of their new daughter Frankie!

Drew Barrymore is the first to admit taking care of a newborn and a toddler has been an adjustment.

The actress, who delivered her second child with art advisor husband Will Kopelman on April 22, says her recovery with newborn daughter Frankie was quicker this time around than following her first pregnancy with elder daughter Olive, 20 months.

“I knew that I have two kids to take care of now and just kicked my own butt to get back into the swing of things immediately,” she tells PEOPLE in this week’s cover story.

The biggest challenge? “Just being split. They’re awake and asleep at different times, or awake at the same time, and it’s a juggling act a little bit.”

Barrymore, 39, says her own tumultuous childhood influenced what she sees as most important for her kids.

She wanted Olive “to have a sibling, because I really would have liked that in my life,” she says. “And always being on time, being there when I say I’m going to be there. Creating a real stable home. I know when my daughter wants to swing higher and jump into the pool and all of these things, she feels safe. To make your kids feel safe is everything.”

Barrymore says Olive is relishing having a baby sister – so far. “Olive loves Frankie and just wants to hang out with her all the time,” she adds. “She wants to feed her. She’s super into it. That’s now. I’m sure things will ebb and flow.”

Now promoting Blended, her new comedy with Adam Sandler which hits theaters Friday, Barrymore admits she wasn’t sure she wanted to act anymore after Olive’s birth.

“I didn’t think I could go back to work, honestly. I didn’t want to be away from my kids and it just wasn’t the priority,” she says. “With Adam, he makes everything really safe because he really creates an environment where kids can come and be a part of it. It was a really big lesson for me.”

Knowing duty would be calling so soon after she gave birth “kept me at least physically present and sharp,” Barrymore adds. “As opposed to being a brain scholar, which I am not right now. As I walk into a room to get something and pass the doorway, I’ve forgotten already.”

For Drew’s album of intimate family photos with Frankie, Olive and Will – and more of her exclusive interview – pick up this week’s issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday

Drew Barrymore on beauty, babies and “Blended”

Drew spoke with the Chicago Sun Times about her new film Blended plus her beautiful baby girls!

Drew Barrymore was not in the celebrity witness protection program. If it seems like she has been missing for the last few years … well, Drew was actually diverted.

“I have been pregnant for three years!” she cries in her suite at the Loews Hotel in Hollywood. “I was sitting on the couch, eating takeout and watching TV. That makes me happy.”

Get Drew, 39, on the topic of pregnancy and she doesn’t talk about the glow. She talks calories. “I ate whatever I wanted. I had a three-year love affair with food.”

A hot night out now for the mother of toddler Olive and newborn Frankie is simple. “It’s me in sweatpants with ‘Game of Thrones’ and takeout. We’re just too tired after a full day of babies.”

Yet, Barrymore says her marriage to Will Kopelman has never been stronger. “We were very much in love before the babies and now we’re stronger than ever,” she says.

She has that sparkle in person. With miles of long wavy hair, a thin Barrymore arrives in flowing, cream-colored pants and a matching shirt. Her face is devoid of most makeup except for some blush from Flower cosmetics (her own brand) and a light pink gloss. “I love that my beauty line is simple. It’s for moms to swipe it on, on the go, and feel beautiful. It’s all about feeling beautiful on the inside,” she says.

She is also coming back to the big screen in “Blended” (opening Friday), where she plays the divorced mother of two unruly sons. She meets un-cute for a first date with Jim (Adam Sandler). He takes her to Hooters. Enough said. It ain’t working out.

The two find themselves and their kids (widowed Jim has three daughters) on a safari to Africa. Will they find love despite themselves?

The film marks the third time Adam and Drew have united on screen after “The Wedding Singer” and “50 First Dates.” “I would sum it up with one word: respect,” Barrymore says. “If you respect somebody, you can make it in love and in films. You can make it in times that are happy and sad. It all stems from respect.”

“The script was so funny and we all need to laugh. It also had heart and that got me because I love to laugh and cry. It’s a movie about two people who just want to be good parents. It’s all about what will make their kids happy, and that makes me want to cry.”

“I couldn’t get through some of the scenes in this movie without crying. There are moments when Adam’s daughters in the movie say, ‘I need a mom.’ I’ve had times in my life when I needed a mom.

“Now, I am a mom and I know I will always be there for my kids,” says Barrymore who adds. “I guess you could say that moms are my Achilles heel. Mothers are the emotional figures in all of our lives.”

As for her own life as a new mother, Barrymore just sighs. “It’s the most joyous thing in the world even when I’m exhausted like now. When friends call and say, ‘Can we have dinner at 9:30 at some restaurant?’ I’m like, ‘Are you kidding? Are we on Barcelona time?’ I have two babies. If we’re not done with eating by 8:30 then forget it.

“I need to get home, make sure everyone is tucked in and hit the couch.”

Drew & Adam on The Ellen DeGeneres Show

I love Ellen’s show but how cute to have both Adam & Drew talking about their daughters with Ellen. Plus it is cute to watch them reminiscence about filming The Wedding Singer … anyway you need to watch this adorable clip.

Drew Barrymore isn’t pregnant anymore, but she’s still got a glow.

The actress gave birth to her second daughter, Frankie, just three weeks ago, yet she still managed to step out and appear on The Ellen DeGeneres Show (airing May 19) alongside her pal Adam Sandler to promote their upcoming film Blended—and she looked absolutely amazing!

“It feels like a miracle and it’s also so awesome I have to say,” she added about stepping out so soon after giving birth. “I feel like I actually have, first of all, I love this movie and I would never not like show up for it and I feel so good and happy. My kid is healthy. I have nothing to complain about. Like, I’m so blessed.”

She also explained how she and hubby Will Kopelman came to decide on their baby girl’s name, noting that almost everything they liked sounded like food or colors when paired with her big sis Olive.

“We, um, it was just a name that like came to my husband and I about a few months before she was born and it was just sort of like I think this is it and then we just gave ourselves the room to change our mind but we never did. Not the most interesting story,” Barrymore said.

The couple welcomed their second child together on April 22, and while she quickly got back to work, she couldn’t help but gush about motherhood when talking to E! News at the film’s junket.

“You know what’s going on more, so you’re a lot less worried and stressed,” Barrymore said. “It’s so much more work, but it is so much more calming in a way. It’s just grounding.”
