Halle Berry, Gabriel Aubry and Nahla

Some families have the looks. Others have style. Then there are those who make us want to cry because they’re blessed with both.

Now, I don’t know about you—but I can’t recall the last time my husband and I looked runway ready, let alone color-coordinated, the last time we walked off an airplane. But , Gabriel Aubry and their daughter Nahla somehow managed to pull it off during their flight to LAX yesterday.

Is there something besides free alcohol that I’m missing up in first class?

Suri Cruise drinks from a bottle in New York

It looks as if parents Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise spoil their daughter Suri Cruise a little too much, allowing her to continue to drink from a bottle… despite the fact that she’s already 3 years-old. Here I thought that the heels were bad for the tot!

Snapped up by the paparazzi on the set of Katie’s new movie, The Romantics, little Suri doesn’t seem to mind drinking from the bottle; however, experts say that she should have been weaned from it years ago:

“She should have been weaned off the bottle by the time she was one year old… By the time kids are nine months old, they have the physical development and mouth coordination necessary to be able to drink out of a sippy cup or a cup with straw. That development comes pretty early,” said Dr. Jennifer Shu, a pediatrician and co-author of Food Fights.

With all of the money between the two actors, one would think that they could afford a how-to parenting book or two.

Although I’m admittedly not a huge fan, I did learn one valuable lesson from her today.

During her first day back from maternity leave, the View co-host shared a number of stories, including one about unwanted exposure. After catching her new son, Isaiah, in a happy moment post-feeding, the mother of three whipped out her iPhone to snap his beautiful grin. Unfortunately, Elisabeth sent out the pic to her family distribution list before double-checking it.

Turns out her son was apparently smiling because he was eyeing…her nipple. (The iPhone doesn’t already have an app for accidental nudity?) “It’s worse than drunk dialing, to forward pictures post-pardum,” Hasselbeck claimed.

Uma Thurman and kids

“Being an actress doesn’t mean I’ve not gone through every bit of what it takes to have and raise children. I raised my kids in New York City. They’re seven and 11, not infants any more, but I’ve pushed those strollers in the streets. Trying to raise kids on your own is not easy. It’s why I haven’t worked as much as I should or could have. It’s why I haven’t made a film in a year. But let’s face it, whoever you are, a girl’s got to make a living.”

- Kill Bill actress Uma Thurman on raising her two kids largely on her own.

It’s time once again to congratulate those celebrities entering into parenthood:

Padma Lakshmi: There’s something in the water in that Top Chef kitchen. Back on August 1, judge Tom Colicchio’s wife delivered a baby boy. Now Padma is expecting a child of her own. The pregnancy is being considered a near “medical miracle” for the long-time endometriosis sufferer. (Lakshmi is actually a co-founder of Endometriosis Foundation of America.)

Jennifer Hudson is convinced her seven-week-old baby talks to her.

The singer, who has a son, David, with fiance David Otunga, is adamant her offspring is a genius and is already trying to converse with her.

“He’s a very rare newborn. He tries a lot - he’s turning over, he’s lifting up his own head, he tries to hold his own bottle, sometimes I swear he’s talking to me, or at least trying to,” the 28-year-old said. “The other day he said, ‘Hi!’ - I swear, I’m not crazy. David was there too, and he was like, ‘He just said, Hi!’ He’s very aware.”

Jennifer is inspired to be a good parent by her own mother - who, along with the singer’s brother Jason, was killed last year by , the estranged husband of Jennifer’s sister Julia.

She is determined to give David the best start in life, and is already investing in special outfits for him to wear on his first Halloween. “It’s going to be ridiculous. I can’t wait. His dad went and bought him some Halloween stuff the other night. I wish he was older so he could remember it, but this is the first one, so I have to go all out. It’s going to be great,” Jennifer explained to People magazine.

The “Spotlight” singer thinks David might even follow in her footsteps by becoming a musician. “The other night he was having a fit screaming, and someone turns on the music and he just stops and calms down. Sometimes when he cries, I try to harmonize!” she said.
