Gisele Bündchen held on tight to her 5-month-old daughter, Vivian, yesterday when she went for a stroll in NYC with a female friend. She's back in the Big Apple after visiting the city earlier this month when she attended the 2013 Met Gala alongside husband Tom Brady. Incidentally, her recent trip comes right as Jennifer Aniston wrapped up her visit to NYC to promote her new web series for Living Proof. During interviews on her press tour, Jen admitted that she loves Gisele's hair. Aside from great hair, the two stars have another thing in common — they both love yoga! Jennifer has long been a fan of the exercise, and Gisele shared a snap of herself practicing yoga with a friend on Tuesday. She said, "A beautiful way to start the morning practice with my friend Cristina Kalyani Paes. Wishing you a joyful day!"
Patrick Dempsey hit the beach shirtless with his wife, Jillian, and their three children, Tallulah, Darby, and Sullivan, in the Caribbean on Tuesday. The tropical vacation may be a celebratory one since Patrick wrapped yet another season with his long-running show Grey's Anatomy. The season nine finale airs tonight on ABC, and the network recently announced more good news, revealing that Grey's will be renewed for a 10th season.
Before Patrick headed off on vacation, he took time to meet with cancer survivors at the Tuesday start of the Amgen Tour of California, which is America's biggest cycling event. Patrick is an ambassador for the tour and for the Breakaway From Cancer charity, which is involved in "supporting the riders and honoring local cancer survivors from tour communities throughout the race."
Natalie Portman treated her son, Aleph Millepied, to a fun afternoon around Paris yesterday after spending Mother's Day weekend together in LA. She took her little one for a ride on a carrousel in the Jardin des Plantes followed by a stroll through a flowery park. The mother-son duo are getting comfortable in their home base of Paris, where they'll soon take up residence since Natalie's husband, Benjamin Millepied, acquired the position as the new director of dance at the Paris Opera Ballet beginning in September.
Natalie is fitting in quality time with Aleph before her work schedule picks up with new projects. She is currently signed on for Jane Got a Gun along with recently added costar Ewan McGregor, and she's also reportedly set to star as Lady Macbeth opposite Michael Fassbender in the big-screen adaptation of William Shakespeare's Macbeth.
Alessandra Ambrosio made the most of the warm LA weather while running errands with her daughter, Anja Mazur, on Monday. The model mom showed off her legs in a pair of printed shorts as 4-year-old Anja did some showing off as well, smiling and posing for the cameras. Alessandra is likely excited to be reunited with her adorable mini me after wrapping up some business in Dallas, TX, over the weekend. Despite having to work on Mother's Day, she shared family photos through social media, as well as snaps of a yummy dessert she enjoyed while on set.
Alessandra is also off to a great month with Victoria's Secret. She's featured in the brand's "Summer of Sexy" swim catalog and recently teamed up with her fellow Angels to announce the winners of the Victoria's Secret What Is Sexy 2013 list, which includes stars like Nina Dobrev, Zoe Saldana, and Beyoncé.
It was an extraspecial weekend for Anna Paquin and her family since it was her first time celebrating Mother's Day! They got a head start on the fun on Saturday, when they met up with friends for a party at a Malibu park. Anna and her husband, Stephen Moyer, took turns holding onto their boy and girl twins, whose names have not been revealed, and mingling with guests. The babies were born in September and since then have joined their parents for shopping trips and strolls along Venice Beach, though their sweet faces have been kept mostly under wraps. It hasn't been all about parenthood for Anna and Stephen, though, since they've also been working on the sixth season of True Blood. The series doesn't return until June 16, but you can check out pictures from True Blood season six now to gear up for the next installment!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there, it can be a hard job but the best! Good work!" Hilary also shared her thoughts on motherhood with People recently, adding that, "I think asking for help on a tired day isn't a sign of weakness. A lot of changes have come into your life quickly and it's important to take time for yourself!"
Hilary wore a bikini during the sunny days, which included hanging out poolside, hitting the beach, and kicking a ball around the grass. Hilary is just one of the many famous moms who celebrated Mother's Day in a special way including Jessica Alba, who went out to brunch with her family of four.
