First photos of Halle Berry and daughter Nahla Ariela

New mom Halle Berry decides her daughter’s first pictures will not be a million-dollar photo spread, but  a mommy and me day at the zoo.

Berry takes her daughter, 5-month-old Nahla Ariela to the Los Angeles Zoo with her mother (and new grandmother) Judith, on Saturday. Nahla is the first child for Berry, 41, and her Versace model boyfriend, 32-year-old Gabriel Aubry.

The actress announced her pregnancy when she was three months along, saying she felt “so much joy and energy. I can just go and go and go.”

Halle Berry decided not to do a photoshoot with a magazine to show the first photos of her baby, but many celebrities, including Gwen Stefani, Jessica Alba and Tori Spelling, receive millions of dollars to let a magazine showcase the first photos of their baby. Some celebrities, such as Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, donate the money to charity, however most celebrities pocket the extra money.

What do you think — is this selling out their baby or simply sharing their happiness with the world?

Charlie Sheen thinks it is a boy

According to odds, and according to Charlie Sheen, he thinks the chances are good that his next child whom he is expecting with new wife, Brooke Mueller, will be a boy. He is banking on the fact that he has already had three girls and unless he has no boy swimmers that the odds are in his favor of a boy next.

Charlie is the proud father of three daughters from previous relationships and while he loves his daddy’s girls, it is clear that he wants a son to carry on his name…and legacy.

Charlie, his wife, daughters Sam and Lola, and KISS singer Paul Stanley met up to celebrate Charlie’s big 43 birthday which is coming up in just a few days. Maybe this time next year there will be another little man in the family so that Charlie doesn’t feel quite so outnumbered at his birthday dinner.

Alison Sweeney is still growing

Alison Sweeney, the host of the hit reality show The Biggest Loser is still busy gaining weight, while the contestants around her are dropping the pounds. Now out of the first trimester of her pregnancy, Alison is fully enjoying her pregnancy and all that comes with it, including the cravings.

According to her interview with People, the first trimester was filled with morning sickness, as those of us who are not lucky experience in two-fold. Nothing sounded good and she would send everything back…even if she had just ordered it 10 minutes before. Now she finds herself craving sweets and trying not to eat entire cantalopes in one sitting.

She has also kept up with her workout routine, including a spinning class, which she enjoys and says helps with her problem areas including the butt and thighs.

If you want to see a real star’s pregnancy progress in real time, be sure to watch the show on this fall.

All is well in the Damon household…according to Ben

Matt Damon is keeping his good buddy Ben Affleck up to date on how he and his wife Luciana are doing after the birth of their third daughter which occured just a week ago. Taking advantage of technology in a way it wasn’t available just a handful of years ago, the BFF’s spend time texting back and forth.

Ben told People that the family is “thrilled” with the new addition and the dynamics it has added to their family life. They are settling down and getting to know each other. It seems like Damon is very outnumbered, but we doubt he minds having another little girl running around.
