Brooke Burke - mother of Neriah, 9, Sierra, 7, Heaven, 2, and Shaya, 17 months - shares some advice for getting the kids back-to-school ready. The 37-year-old mother of four describes how she is winding down from the fun of summer and preparing the children for a school routine on her blog:

"Another weekend over! Why is it the last few weeks of summer fly by? Many moms are celebrating the end, for me, it’s a much more hectic time once school starts. I’m trying to squeeze in one more fun outing for the kids before we get back into auto mode. I feel like the kids are so scheduled during the school year that we have very little down time.

Brooke Burke and David Charvet were spotted enjoying a sweet treat in Malibu today with their beautiful kids Heaven Rain, 2, and Shaya Braven, 14 months.

The 37-year-old mom-of-four - big sisters Neriah, 9, and Sierra, 7, weren't with the family today - recently took to her Modern Mom blog to vent about some of the challenges of family life.

"There is so much going on in my household, dealing with 2 babies and 2 wanabee teens. Because I have two families in my life, every week when my big girls return from their father’s house, it’s like starting over-every Wednesday. It's a totally different energy when I go from two kids to four, especially because two of them are not David’s. There are lots of feelings, little hearts, and emotions to consider. Most of the time I feel like a mediator, referee/counselor."

Neriah and Sierra are Brooke’s daughters with her ex-husband Garth Fisher.

David Charvet and Brooke Burke were spotted at Nickelodeon's 22nd Annual Kids' Choice Awards in Los Angeles on Saturday with three of their four children: Neriah, 9, Sierra Sky (striped skirt), 7, and 2-year-old Heaven Rain (pink shirt). One-year-old little brother, Shaya, wasn't with the family.

The 37-year-old Dancing With the Stars Season 7 champ recently offered her advice to moms: “Everybody is going to tell you the ‘right way’ to be a mom. I don’t think there is a right way. It’s not about being a perfect mother: It’s about doing the best you can every day.”

On life with four kids: "Three kids were easy. Four rocked my world. I've always wanted to have a lot of children, and I'm used to the chaos. But, it's challenging having two babies in diapers and two babies not yet sleeping through the night."

On Dancing with the Stars: "As moms and as women, fear sometimes gets in our way. By competing on Dancing with the Stars, I really took a chance. It was the biggest commitment I have ever made professionally to anything. My children saw what it was like to dedicate your time to something, to sacrifice and to really accomplish something."

On her advice to moms: "Everybody is going to tell you the 'right way' to be a mom. I don't think there is a right way. It's not about being a perfect mother: It's about doing the best you can every day."

Brooke, 37, has kids Shaya and Heaven Rain, 2, with her fiance David Charvet. She's also mom to daughters Neriah, 9, and Sierra Sky, 7, from a previous relationship.
