Yesterday we saw a cute photo of dad Brad Pitt taking his eldest daughters out for a set visit to see their mother Angelina Jolie while she worked and today we get to see a cute photo of daddy Braddy taking his eldest sons, Maddox Chivan and Pax Thien, for a boys’ night out of fun at Dave & Buster’s … behold:

It’s a boys’ day out for Brad Pitt and sons Maddox and Pax! The star, 46, and his younger brother Doug took the two boys to Dave & Buster’s in New York City’s Times Square Wednesday afternoon, UsMagazine.com confirms. (Pitt took Maddox to the same Dave & Busters back in September.) While at the arcade restaurant, Pitt helped Pax, 6, with the controls on “The Big One,” an oversized crane used to grab stuffed animals. After several attempts, they won a giant stuffed animal. The group — surrounded by four security guards — then moved on to war game “Razing Storm.” Pax and Maddox, 8, took hold of the life-size guns and shot at the arcade screen for a few minutes before moving on. While the bearded Pitt watched them play, an eyewitness tells Us he handed out extra Dave & Buster’s game cards to a few children. One boy jumped up and down in excitement when the star gave him the card and patted him on the back, the source says. When a crowd began gathering, Pitt, Doug and the kids got in an elevator to leave. As the doors closed, one onlooker yelled out, “I love Jennifer Aniston!” Although Pitt didn’t look amused, his brother Doug laughed out loud, an eyewitness says.

Playtime dates like this with the boys is nothing new for Brad Pitt. He is fond of taking the kids to D&B’s as well as Mars 2112 (which is another amusement-themed restaurant in NYC). Even with all those bodyguards in tow, it’s nice to know that Brad tries to keep things as real for the kids as possible. No word on how Brad, Ange and their 6 kids will be spending New Year’s Eve but something tells me that they will be all together and having fun!

Here is a cute photo of Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and their children — Maddox Chivan, Zahara Marley, Pax Thien and Shiloh Nouvel — sitting down for a bite to eat at a cafe in NYC over the weekend. Only the twin babies Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline were not in attendance on this outing … but with 4 kids already in tow, I’m thinkin’ Brangelina were quite happy to keep the wee little ones at home:

Aww … Ange. She looks good but tired. I love that Brangelina is happy to just bring their kids into any ol’ cafe for food. For as famous as they are as a collective unit, they really do tend to live fairly normal lives. It remains to be seen if the Brangelina bunch will remain in NYC for the holidays but one thing’s for sure, wherever they end up for Xmas they’re sure to be together and happy :)

Angelina Jolie was reunited with her first child, Maddox Chivan, in France today after spending some time apart in the past week or so. Maddox traveled to the US with his father Brad Pitt and Ange was left home with the rest of the kiddies … but before Brad, the twins, Shiloh, Pax and Zahara — it was just Angelina and Maddox:

As you can see, Angelina purchased a little suction cup dart gun for her little man and kinda looks pregs in this dress. I’m pretty sure she’s not pregs but, well, the outfit does look suspicious. In the end, tho, it’s just Angelina and Maddox … just like it’s been from the start. These two go way back … it’s nice to see them out and about enjoying some alone time together.

On Thursday we saw a few ADORABLE photos of Angelina Jolie and 3 of her children — Pax Thien, Zahara Marley and Shiloh Nouvel — on a shopping excursion to a Toys R Us in France. I noted at the time that Brad and Maddox Chivan were here in the States taking care of biz … but it looks like that biz has been completed cuz here are a couple pics of the Brangelina “men” making their way thru JFK Airport presumably making their way home to the rest of the fam:

Brad and Mad have become quite the pair. If ever Brad brings one of his children with him on trips, it’s usually Maddox (sometimes with Pax, sometimes not). We usually see Angelina out with the girls … so it looks like the Brangelina Brood is a boy vs. girl situation. HMMM. We still hardly ever seen the twins — Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Léon — so it’s impossible to know if they are split up between the parents by gender as well. But … whatever the case may be when they are out and about individually, there is no doubt that they are one happy family when they are all together. It’s so cute … couldn’t you just puke on your shoes?

Angelina Jolie and her eldest child Maddox Chivan were spotted making their way thru LAX Airport this week bound for the Middle East where Ange will be doing a bit of work as Goodwill Ambassador for the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) … while her hubby-like partner Brad Pitt was spotted tooling around LA on his hog:

Presumably, Dad Pitt will remain at the homestead to care for the rest of the Brangelina brood while Angelina is off saving the world. Santa Angelina has already made her way to Baghdad, Iraq to do her good work. Here is a photo and some deets on Angelina’s visit to the affected region:

Angelina Jolie took a day trip onThursday to Baghdad. The actress and UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador is there to speak out for aid on behalf the millions of Iraqis displaced within their own country and the 1.5 million more Iraqis displaced out of the country. This is her third visit to the country in recent years. On Tuesday afternoon Jolie and eldest son Maddox took off from LAX, where they were heading to the 24th annual Arab Children’s Congress in Amman, Jordan. The pair were reportedly going to be staying with Jolie’s friend Queen Noor.

You can read the full text of the UNHCR press release HERE. I’m always amazed at how much time and devotion Angelina puts toward her charity work. It makes ones head spin just thinking about all commitments Angelina keeps in her every day life … whether they be personal, professional or philanthropic, Angelina Jolie works hard, y’all! Kudos to her for her continued zeal to try and help heal the world.

Brad Pitt and his eldest sons Maddox Chivan and Pax Thien spent some great bonding time together this weekend while mommy Angelina Jolie was hard at work on the set of her new film Salt. Brad and the boys were first spotted chillin’ together on Long Island, NY …

… before they sneaked off to Niagra Falls, Ontario Canada to enjoy (among other things) a Maid of the Mist tourist ride:

People magazine may have named him “Sexiest Man Alive” twice, but even Brad Pitt looked a little goofy in his blue Maid of the Mist poncho. The superstar actor was in Niagara Falls, Ont., on a picture-perfect afternoon to take in the sights of the world-famous cataracts Saturday. In tow were two of his sons, Maddox and Pax; his parents, Bill and Jane, and his bodyguards. The group enjoyed the attractions while remaining relatively under the radar. Not with them was Pitt’s equally famous partner, Angelina Jolie, who has been filming the thriller “Salt” in Albany. “He was looking good,” sighed a star-struck Melissa Harris, 17, of Niagara Falls, Ont., as the hunky actor rushed past her. She conceded she was a little chagrined that she didn’t have her camera with her for the celebrity sighting. A pair of German tourists also recognized the famous dad and delightedly snapped photos with their cell phones. But for the most part, Pitt remained largely unnoticed— just another dad enjoying a tourist attraction with his family. Pitt managed to keep a low profile by sporting a look closer to that of the Unabomber than a movie star. He wore big, dark sunglasses and a paperboy-style cap with the hood of his oversized black sweat shirt pulled over his head. The Pitt family was given the star treatment at the Maid of the Mist. When their black SUV with tinted windows was escorted down to the dock about 3 p.m., they were discreetly whisked to the front of the line. The family gathered on the upper deck as bodyguards kept careful watch. During their ride, the Pitts took turns snapping photos of each other and the falls, and the little boys seemed to enjoy getting drenched. Most of the tourists seemed oblivious to the famous family in their midst. “Aaaahhhh!” screamed a distressed Raisa Monteiro, 18, a Brazilian exchange student, after learning that she had been on the same boat as Pitt, but hadn’t even caught a glimpse of him. “Maybe we can find them!” her friends cried, as they frantically tried to figure out where the family had gone. But Pitt was long gone, apparently headed back to Albany. U.S. border officers said the actor was very pleasant as he crossed through the checkpoint at the Rainbow Bridge.

Aww … it’s so cool that Brad is able to sneak his kids off for a relatively quite afternoon of fun without most people being any the wiser. I imagine it’s difficult for any of the Brangelina brood to go anywhere unnoticed but I guess they get lucky sometimes. It really is remarkable how normal the family is … it says a lot that both Brad and Angelina work so hard to keep their kids’ lives as normal as possible.

Brad Pitt and his sons Maddox Chivan and Pax Thien took a break from hanging out with the smelly girls and the stinky babies to spend some quality male-bonding time together at the fun NYC restaurant Mars 2112 this weeked … here are a few photos of the Jolie-Pitt men making their way into the space-themed eatery yesterday afternoon:

This ain’t the first time the Jolie-Pitt men paid a visit to Mars … actually, this place is a fave of Maddox and Pax so Daddy Braddy makes a point to bring the kids for a visit on almost every visit to NYC. Now that Angelina Jolie will be working on her new film Salt in the NYC area in the coming weeks, perhaps the boys will become regulars at Mars 2112 as well. The place looks like fun … Brad is a great dad for indulging his kids like this :)
