Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead

Larry Birkhead has posed with his daughter for yet another celebrity gossip magazine story.

It's almost as if the father of Dannielynn is receiving cash payments for each of these opportunities.

In the latest issue of Life & Style, Birkhead says that he'd love to give his daughter a sibling at some point.

“I want to have another child. It would be tough for me to do right now, but in a couple of years, definitely.”

But what if Larry doesn't meet someone who is attracted to his need to pose for every tabloid that calls? Will he explore adoption?

“Right now I’m so busy making money off my daughter taking care of Dannielynn, I don’t have time to get out there and date,” he said. “So while I’d love to have another baby of my own, I’d be happy to adopt a little brother or sister for her.”

Dannielynn Birkhead recently turned two years old. And she received the present all children pine for:

Unwanted celebrity gossip attention!

While the amount of cash, if any, left to him in Anna Nicole Smith's will remains unclear, Larry Birkhead is taking advantage of some of the opportunities made available to him because of his daughter.

This time, she graces the cover of Us Weekly, as Larry shares Dannielynn's first word with the world. It was "mama."

Good for Dannielynn! If our father dragged us to a photo shoot for such a pathetic tabloid - which, it seems reasonable to assume, likely paid him for his time - we wouldn't say his name, either.

Remember when Birkhead actually had Entertainment Tonight cameras follow him and his daughter to Anna Nicole's grave? Disgraceful.

We haven't seen much of little Dannielynn and celebrity gossip-loving father Larry Birkhead in awhile.

But they showed up again this weekend, with Dannielynn having grown into an adorable toddler and Birkhead not having changed a bit:

He's still pimping his tyke, presumably for wads of cash. What a great guy!

Larry Birkhead probably earns one hundred dollars from the paparazzi every time he kisses his daughter. So we've heard.

Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead will soon be the most popular person in every sandbox across the country.

Yesterday, a judge in Los Angeles declared the child the sole heir of Anna Nicole Smith's estate. This means the little one will be able to afford a few new (gold-plated) pacifiers.

"We and Mr. Stern always believed that Anna Nicole never intended to disinherit her daughter. I'm pleased to say this chapter in the saga is closed," said the lawyer for Howard K. Stern.

A trust has been set up for Dannielynn, with Larry Birkhead and Howard serving as co-trustees.

We supported Larry Birkhead for so long.

In his custody battle with Howard K. Stern for the rights Dannielynn, he seemed like a genuinely concerned parent. Anna Nicole Smith was wealthy? It was like Larry didn't even notice.

Now, however, Birkhead is making sure he's noticed everywhere he goes with his daughter. Including the cemetery.

As shown here, Birkhead has seemingly sold images of himself and Dannielynn visiting the grave of Anna Nicole. Moreover, Entertainment Tonight will run an interview with the supposed mourner, documenting the events in his life since Anna's passing.

We're not sure why. Everyone has seen them all already. Birkhead has made sure of that.

Can you imagine the family of Heath Ledger acting like Larry Birkhead? Stop being a celebrity, Larry. Go be a father.

This picture would be a lot cuter if Larry Birkhead hadn't taken his daughter shopping on Robertson Blvd., one of the most popular locales for entertainment news reporters.

We've been major supporters of Birkhead throughout his battle over Dannielynn.

But first rumors swirled that he may star in a reality show alongside his baby... and now he takes her out among crazed celebrity photographers?

The guy is starting to seem like the Spencer Pratt of fatherhood. Will he be dating Tiffany Dupont next?

Congratulations to Dannielynn Hope Marshall Birkhead! The beautiful tyke turned a year old over the weekend.

In honor of the occasion, Lara Spencer - pictured here with the proud father and birthday honoree - of celebrity gossip show The Insider spoke with Larry Birkhead:

On what he'd say to Anna Nicole Smith about Dannielynn:
"I would say, 'I hope you're proud of the way she's growing up and getting big.'"

On what he hopes to give Dannielynn for her first birthday:
"Give her another happy day in life. I know she's not going to understand everything that's going on but just something that she can say one day, 'Wow, what a cool party, what a cool dad!'"

On if Dannielynn is starting to talk:
"We've heard her say "da-da" a few times."

* The Hollywood Gossip note: Rumor has it Jayden James Federline has said the same thing, followed by the words: "rescue me!"

On keeping her mother and brother's memories alive:
"I show her pictures all the time and I say, 'This is your mommy and this is your brother Daniel.' We talk about them all the time."

On whether she resembles her late brother Daniel:
"Yeah, sometimes. Especially when she gets out of the bath and her hair is parted to the side like a little boy, she looks a lot like Daniel."

Larry Birkhead continues to prove he's a much better father than Matt Leinart.

Granted, this is akin to Hillary Clinton proving she's more stable than Britney Spears, but that doesn't mean Birkhead isn't an excellent dad to Dannielynn.

As Us Weekly reports this week, father and daughter are doing well in the 55,000-square-foot, five-bedroom L.A. mansion that Anna Nicole Smith purchased in 2004. Moreover, Birkhead is making sure to keep Dannielynn's mother's memory alive.

"Larry says that it's important Dannielynn knows about her mom," his older sister, Judy Birkhead said. "He's always telling Dannielynn how much he loved Anna and how great she was."

Birkhead has plastered the residence with photos of Anna Nicole and "he'll point at pictures and show Dannielynn videos of her, too," Judy said.

Meanwhile, longtime friend Jane Rose-Zupetz told the magazine: "When Anna was pregnant, she painted a lot for Dannielynn. Larry will give her those, also."

For now, though, the next milestone is September 7. That's when Dannielynn becomes the next celebrity baby - following in the adorable footsteps of Shiloh Nouvel - to turn one. Birkhead is planning a big birthday bash, and 200 guests have been invited to celebrate, including Dolly Parton, Dannielynn's favorite singer.

"It's a celebration for Dannielynn, but it's also a celebration for what Larry had to go through to hold his daughter," Rose-Zupetz said.

Also in this week's issue of Us: Articles about Criss Angel possibly getting it on with Spears; and Spencer Pratt tricking Heidi Montag in some way. Sounds like a must-read!

If you think Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt love the gym, you ain't seen nothing yet!

Larry Birkhead says being a dad is "the best experience of my life." He absolutely can't get enough of the gig.

Moreover, Anna Nicole Smith's ex-lover reveals his pet name for his 10-month-old daughter, Dannielynn.

"I call her 'Little Monkey,' " the Birkhead told People magazine at the Hollywood premiere of The Bourne Ultimatum Wednesday. "[It's] because she just rolls around like a little monkey all the time with me. I call her 'Cricket' sometimes too."

Birkhead also said he's been overwhelmed by all the support â€" and gifts â€" he's received since winning custody of the baby, a tyke that's considered even cuter than Jayden James Federline.

"You know I get tons of things from people who I've never even met before and so everything means a lot to me."

He added, "[Dannielynn] loves all kind of toys. She loves anything that makes noises and sounds and lights, and she's really alert â€" she's just a great baby!"

Lastly, Birkhead makes a statement that maybe Matt Leinart should pay attention to. He says being a dad is "the best experience of my life. I get up early in the morning and I run in as soon as I hear the first cries and I take a peek at my daughter and scoop her up. It's great! It's a lot of fun [and] it's a lot of hours."

Sort of like being the publicist for Britney Spears. Minus all the fun.

Life is pretty good for Larry Birkhead.

He and 9-month-old Dannielynn recently moved into Anna Nicole Smith's Los Angeles-area home - and over the weekend, the pair celebrated its first Father's Day as a family.

"I spent lots of time with her," Birkhead said to People magazine about little Dannielynn. "Just private time. We had a great day."

Birkhead and Howard K. Stern arrived in Los Angeles a few days ahead of the guardian hearing. Stern even helped Birkhead settle into the two-story stucco house Smith had shared with son Daniel, who died at age 20 three days after Danielynn was born.

"Honestly, for me, it was really hard," Stern said. "I was with her when she picked out that house, and for me, pretty much every item brings back memories. And I'm still having problems even accepting the fact that Anna and Daniel are gone. Anna Nicole was my whole joy in life, my whole reason for being."

At least he can watch Willa Ford portray his former love on screen in the near future.

In a slap to the cute faces of Jayden James Federline and Suri Cruise, Stern - who for now is staying with family in the L.A. area - said Dannielynn is "the most famous baby in America," but he hopes the attention will cool off:

"Hopefully you will give her some respect and allow her to lead a normal life, or at least as normal of a life as possible."

Meanwhile, a loving gesture to his daughter, Birkhead said he has no problem with Dannielynn spending time with the people who were in her life before her mother's death in February. Including Stern.

"Dannielynn seems just as happy as can be," Stern said. "I wish that Anna could see her now. It's just horrible that she can't."

We agree. And hope this tragedy can put things in perspective for whiners such as Tom Sizemore.
