The entire Jolie-Pitt clan touched down at Narita International Airport in Japan yesterday. Angelina Jolie strapped six-month-old daughter Vivienne Marcheline to her chest while her brother Knox Leon clung up his daddy Brad Pitt. I love their matching hats. The twins arrived with their siblings Maddox, Zahara, Pax, and Shiloh rounded out the group.

The glamorous family were in town to promote Brad’s film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Angelina’s hit flick The Changling.

The kids seem to be taking all the traveling in their stride. In the last two weeks they’ve been to Paris, Germany, Los Angeles, and now Tokyo!

They might be one of the world’s most glamorous families, but the Jolie-Pitt clan prefers to keep things simple at Christmas.

“The kids don’t ask for big gifts for the reason that they don’t see a lot of the American cartoon television, which is packed with all those manipulative commercials for big toys that look so fantastic,” Brad Pitt explained to Hello! magazine.

Brad and partner Angelina Jolie “try to keep the money spent to a minimum” by encouraging their children to make their own gifts.

“The rule is that everyone’s got to make something for someone else, you got to put time into it. Then, when they give to each other, it’s really sweet.”

What a refreshing approach in this crazy consumerist society we live in!

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are parents to six children: Maddox Chivan, 7, Pax Thien, 5, Zahara Marley, 3 ½, Shiloh Nouvel, 2 ½, and five-month-old twins Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline.

Maddox Jolie-Pitt must have been a good boy! His mommy Angelina Jolie treated him to a toy shopping spree in New Orleans yesterday.

Angelina Jolie stopped by the Today show studio to promote her new film Changeling, but the interview inevitably turned to her proudest achievement: her family!

Angelina talked about how much her children love to travel, parenting disagreements, and her thoughts on adopting again! Check it out below!

Angelina Jolie is poised to inspire more mothers to breastfeed after posing for this gorgeous cover shot for W magazine. The gorgeous photo, taken by Angelina’s partner Brad Pitt, will grace the front of the magazine’s November issue.

The bold photograph has been praised by other mothers and breast feeding activists.

“I think it is fabulous. Seeing a celebrity like Angelina Jolie breastfeed can be a role model to encourage women to make a choice that is wonderful for their baby,” said Andi Silverman, mom of two and author of Mama Knows Breast.

“Breasts are used to sell all sorts of products, so to see them used the way nature intended can only be a great thing.”

“The response from moms we have seen is that if someone as popular, beautiful and together as Angelina is breast-feeding her children, it inspires other women to do so themselves,” added Dr Shannon Fox, a psychotherapist with the Momlogic website.

I think she looks so beautiful here, and the photo is so tastefully done. I love it!
