In the studio, I do try to have a thought in my head, so that it's not like a blank stare.

I don't have to try to be perfect at everything.

I always knew I wanted to have children.

It's become another dimension to who I am. I don't think Sports Illustrated is going to be wanting me. But who cares? I'm at a different place in my life.

Being a nice girl from the Mid-West, my inclination is always to give in and say yes because I want people to like me.

I'm all-American. Sexy but not intimidating. Not the kind of woman who's going to steal someone's husband.

Even I don't wake up looking like Cindy Crawford.
