Mother's love: Sarah Jessica Parker looks smitten with her giggling twin girls

Giggles: Sarah Jessica Parker tickles her daughter during an afternoon outing with her twins in New York


The trio were joined by the children's nanny to visit upmarket food stores Dean and Deluca and LifeThyme near their Greenwich Village home.

She's been hard at work on her upcoming film for the past two months.

So it is unsurprising that Sarah Jessica Parker was in a great mood when she got a rare day off to spend some quality time with her gorgeous twin daughters.

The actress took her 21-month old twins Marion and Tabitha for an afternoon outing in New York yesterday.



Smitten: Sarah Jessica couldn't take her eyes of Tabitha and Marion, 21 months, during the girls' afternoon outing


The 45-year-old Sex And The City star was bundled up in a puffy black coat with a fur-lined hood, jeans, a grey knit beanie and Ugg boots.

Marion and Tabitha wore baby Uggs to match their mothers, and looked cosy in brown hooded cardigans.

Sarah Jessica and the nanny took turns in pushing the girls in their double buggy during the girls afternoon out, stopping frequently to chat to passersby who paused to admire the cute twosome.

Their mother was equally adoring, at one point reaching down to tickle one of her daughters, sending her into a fit of giggles.

It's not just the twins who have Miss Parker's attention.

The actress proved that her character in her new film I Don't Know How She Does It hits close to home, when she found time to do the school run on Friday.

Still wearing her heels, dress and chic purple Halston coat from the set of the film, she took a break to chat to son James Wilkie, eight, while walking him to school.

Sarah Jessica said of welcoming the twins into her family: 'It's been amazing but complicated because of my current work schedule, which I have enormous regrets about.'

I Don't Know How She Does It also stars Olivia Munn, as a work colleague of Sarah's character, along with Pierce Brosnan, Kelsey Grammer and Gossip Girl Jessica Szohr.

The cast have been filming scenes around Manhattan, Boston and Brooklyn over the past two months for the film, which is slated for release next year.
