One might think adding twins to an already crowded family would be a daunting prospect, but Brad Pitt insists that his newest children, six-month-old twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline bring “double the fun.:

“We were four [children] before, and we got into our rhythms and it worked. Then someone new comes in, and it discombobulates the movements for a moment, but then you settle in again and it just all works,” Brad explained to The Telegraph. “Everyone’s pretty well integrated. It’s not the first time new kids have come in.”

Brad says he’s surprised “how soon their personalities have started emerging,” but it’s little wonder with the strong spirits of their siblings Maddox Chivan, 7, Pax Thien, 5, Zahara Marley, 4 and Shiloh Nouvel, 2 ½!

“It’s chaos at times, but there’s such joy in the house,” Brad gushed. “I look and there’s our boy from Vietnam and our daughter from Ethiopia, and our girl was born in Namibia, and our son is from Cambodia, and they’re brothers and sisters, man. They’re brothers and sisters and it’s a sight for elation.”

In fact, the couple are so elated they “haven’t found any reason to stop” having kids! “We have the capability to give a child a home, and let me tell you it’s selfish, too, because the reward has been extraordinary.” Does that mean there might be another little Jolie-Pitt baby on the horizon?

We saw Brad and his “very nomadic family” touch down in Japan earlier this week. They’ve also recently visited France, Germany, and the United States to promote Brad’s new film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and mom Angelina Jolie’s movie Changeling. It might be tiring, but Brad insists the travel is good for everyone.

“The value of it is that the family becomes the core, and the kids may not understand the places they see at this early age, but I know it’s seeping into their consciousness,” he said.

“We move quite well, and I don’t think it’s taking its toll. We have to think about schooling, though, and we’re in an international program, so wherever we go it’s the same curriculum.”

Now that he’s a little older and wiser, with a young family to consider, Brad says he’s more discriminating in the roles he takes.

“To me, it’s about the value of your time and your day and the value of the people you spend it with,” he explained. “It’s about me being a strong father and guide and a good match for my significant other. Then, if I’m going to go to work, it must be something of value to me.

“I’m much more experienced now, so I can find films that are interesting quicker and cut out the films that don’t really matter. It means more to me now because my kids are going to see them, and I want them to be proud.”

I’m sure they will be!

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.

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!
