"    I envy Kate Middleton. She&amp;#039;s sophisticated, yet modern, has great taste in clothes, and is confident and self-assured \u2014 she even did her own makeup for her wedding. When she stepped out on Tuesday in this chic gray Max Mara dress, it sold out online within hours. Most of all, however, I&amp;#039;m envious of the help she&amp;#039;ll be getting with her new baby. The royal couple recently posted an advertisement for a royal servant to help with housekeeping, laundry, dishes, etc. And they&amp;#039;re going to need all the help they can get. Taking care of a baby is rewarding, but it&amp;#039;s exhausting. Believe me, I know: I have three boys. Here&amp;#039;s who I would employ if I could afford full-time help to live like a royal.  1. Housekeeper: A housekeeper who comes in twice a month to help clean the bathrooms and dust the furniture is a treat. A live-in housekeeper to at your beck and call anytime of the day would be a lifesaver. I&amp;#039;d have toilets without urine on them (moms of boys will know what I&amp;#039;m talking about) and floors without crumbs or that questionable sticky mess.  2. Babysitter: I don&amp;#039;t need a full-time nanny, but I&amp;#039;d love to have a babysitter to help out a few hours a week so I could run errands alone or spend time with my older kids without worrying about the baby. And, of course, our sitter would need to watch the kids while the mister and I go on weekly date nights.  3. Personal trainer: My doctor cleared me for exercise eight weeks postpartum, yet it took me much longer to start working out again. The lack of sleep was partly to blame, but really it came down to motivation. Even now that my kids are a little older, I sometimes sacrifice my workout time for family obligations. With a personal trainer, I&amp;#039;d stay motivated and make time for workouts, plus get tips to get back into shape.  4. Nutritionist: I admit that it&amp;#039;s not just the first few weeks postpartum that we live off takeout or toast. Sometimes I get so busy with work deadlines, extracurricular activities, homework, and more that I don&amp;#039;t have time to cook. I&amp;#039;d love to hire a nutritionist to deliver meals to accommodate my family&amp;#039;s crazy dietary requirements, including vegetarian, gluten-free, paleo, and low in sugar.

Stylist: It&amp;#039;s easy to fall into the routine of sweatpants and ponytails \u2013 they&amp;#039;re just so comfortable. But it&amp;#039;s also nice to dress up, and I always feel like a million bucks when I get my hair cut and styled. My personal stylist would help me with hair and makeup and bring the wardrobe to me \u2014 no more shopping in malls and depending on department-store mirrors.  Sadly, I won&amp;#039;t be holding a job fair for this fantasy household staff. I&amp;#039;m a regular mom, not a royal or a celebrity. I&amp;#039;ve had many days when I&amp;#039;ve stayed in my pajamas past noon and eaten whatever I could find in the freezer. The craziness of raising multiple children is my norm.  So if you could hire anyone to join your &amp;quot;royal staff,&amp;quot; who would it be?
