Denise Austin has a really good get fit fast abs tape. She has an exercise that you can do to specifically strengthen the lower tummy area after kids. Basically core exercises will strengthen the muscles. You will have to lower the fat in that area for the muscle to show. Carbs go straight to the abs so you do want to reduce those.
(white bread, potatoes pasta, beer, pizza, yeast rolls etc)

Jogging helps burn the fat in the tummy area because the area is bouncing and burning the fat. Twists work the love handles and weighted pull downs in the gym.
