Brad Pitt says being a father gets better every day.
The actor - who has three children with partner Angelina Jolie - has revealed his favorite part of the day is hearing his daughter Shiloh pass wind.
He is quoted by Britain's The Sun newspaper as saying: "My expectations about being a dad are being excelled daily. There is nothing more satisfying for me than to help Shiloh burp.
"When I tuck the children in at night I always take the time to talk to them. I enjoy sitting on their bed and watching them fall asleep. "
Back in October, Brad, 43, said he loved having children so much that he was planning to start his own soccer team.
He joked: "I have three kids now and next year I'll have six then nine. We're looking for a soccer team. I want to compete in the next World Cup."
Brad isn't the only one revelling in his domestic life.
Angelina, 31, also insists their life together is perfect.
She said: "I don't believe marriage would make us happier. We are a family and that is enough. He is not only a great dad; he is also a great friend. "
Brad and Angelina spent Christmas visiting refugees in Costa Rica .
The couple - who have a seven-month-old daughter Shiloh Nouvel, five-year-old son Maddox and 23-month-old daughter Zahara - plan to ring in 2007 at the Exclusive Four Seasons Resort in Papagayo on Costa Rica 's northern Pacific coast.

I agree. Jen's got to move on with her life and not have her friends speak on her behalf. That's so passive agressive.
YES Jen should move on. Brad looks so happy & content with gorgeous Angelina & the kids. I still can't believe Aniston let a fantastic man like Brad Pitt go? Why didn't she want to have a wonderful family? A sweet handsome man who is talented & kind who wanted to be a father as oppose to a playboy like so many other good -looking men in Hollywood-is a keeper Jen! All of Brad's EX.s say he is a good man & a wonderful friend. Jen you screwed up royally when you wanted to wait to have kids! I agree MOVE ON.....hopefully you'll get a second chance at marital bliss & happiness.
Oh, come on people! Sure Brad and Angelina are doing wonderful things as are most missionaries who have been doing this sort of ministry for years and continue to do so but these two are obviously doing this out in the public eye to cover up for their guilty feelings. That's why Angelina is contradicting herself in all her latest interviews. She brought up the past when she should have just left well enough alone but of course, guilt will bring this out in anyone. If they would have had the decency to wait until the divorce was final then go ahead and be together and have a baby, the public and Jen would not have such ill feelings toward them and would much more appreciate all their latest efforts. They have marred their image for many years to come and have lost out on a lot of respect they both could have deserved. Besides this, everyone seems to forget that this was not the first time Brad had been unfaithful to Jen. I think that Angelina was just the final straw. Remember, people, she divorced him. Having children with an unfaithful man is just too much heartache let alone living alone with one. And it's just a matter of time before they both cheat on eachother and maybe already have. Hey, to each his own - but don't hurt people on your way to the refugee camp.
folks how did this article become a jen hate article..move on and let her be..
How old is Jen? Why do we always have to be nice to her? Oh, I forgot. She's America's sweetheart. Is that why we have leave her alone & let her be?
Blame parents marriage for her break-up
Blame TV for her crappy movie career
Blame Vince for smoking
Blame extentions for ruining her hair
Blame sexist writers for not getting good parts.
Blame Brad for the divorce
Now blame charity for her break up.
Sorry, I do not find Angelina's obsession with children interesting or attractive or oh-so-wonderful as everyone seems to think it is. It's all such an obvious symptom of the same neurotic behavior she has demonstrated in the past. Finally poor Angie has someone who will love her forever and never leave her - not Brad, but Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh. And when they get older there is an endless supply of children to feed her neediness. How very sad. I wonder how long it will be before Brad is pushed aside (once his 'star power' wears thin, I presume).
all the 'rights' in the world are not going to make up for the big time wrong jolie and brad pulled in destroying a marriage. it takes two to tango. but articles that cite jen's 'friends' could very well be fakes. a person's friend or something close to that is always mentioned in the rag mags, and everyone knows to take it with a grain of salt. well, same can be said in other publications that say they spoke with or quoted a friend. jen has a right to be angry, it was her marriage someone stepped into and interfered with, and she needs to be angry with both of them.
frankly, I feel that celebs need to help those in the U.S. first. if they put half the attention to lousiana and the homeless of the U.S. that they do overseas, we'd be in a lot better condition!
In response to the 'OLD' Marti Cly, no what Brad and Angelina did was morally wrong, its obvious that you don't have Rightful, good MORALs, I give them (Brad and Anagelina) 3 years before things being to brake down. In Gods eyes, you do not commit adultry while you are married, not matter how that happens, friends is one thing but for the whole words to hear about your encounters with your leading lady and then it just so happens that your begin to think oh its more than just friends now. NO, NO, NO, that is now the way it happens.

The best way to make my own oppinion on what is going on is to ask wether it would be ok if had happened to me or not. I definetelly wouldn't like to have some of my husband co-workers calling him at the most incovenient hours and using her child to distroy my family. Would that be ok with you... if it was you? Angelina goes to Africa to give birth and close the intire hotel to 'have privacy'. Do you know how much that cost and how many children,that she says to care about, that very money would feed? She could have that privacy for free if she would stay in the U.S. She goes to Costa Rica, and other Countries to visit refugees, etc. and then goes to the most expensive resort to have fun. I have nothing against her using her money to have fun, but I think if she wants to go to Costa Rica to have fun, just do it. But it is kind of ironic doing both things; it is even ofensive. She has always told her ex-husbands that she would never give birth, instead she would adopt. But, in order to get Brad, knowing he and Jen had plans to have kids soon, she adopted again and got pregnant, even before Brad was divorced. That was a HUGE TRAP and Brad fell in it.
My brother, cousind, and many other people that I know have adopted and have their own children. These people don't make the money Angelina does. Many star do charity and that is what they focus on, not to be popular or whatever.
I'm just tired of her 'show' and I'm sure there are more interesting things to the midia throw on us.
I think whatever Brad, Angelina and Jen do is their own business. The media seems to follow each of them everywhere and report on things that certainly are not news -worthy. We don't need them to be our 'soap opera'.
Life happens. What makes two people close and then not close is a personal issue and I'm sure the hardest part for all concerned is the media poking, guessing and reporting on the minute details of all their lives.
Now, the trouble is there's a whole industry built up around feeding us this stuff and as a culture we do 'buy' or it wouldn't work. I say let them be whomever they are. It's not for any of us to sit and judge. I know personally I'd hate to be followed everyplace by a hord with microphones, cameras and notebooks.
This is for Oceana, April Baldwin, Mike Morgan and Morals. Your posts are right on target. I am with you on every point made regarding the both of them. Honestly, they both deserve one another with their shallow lives. Jennifer is a lady with good morals and a focus. I commend her.
I can't believe I read all of the comments left here, but one thing is clear, nearly all of you are idiots. You know nothing about any of the celebrities you speak of, or their morals. Stop being so jealous and judgmental. Get a clue. Get a life.
Why you people care? I think that what Jolie did was wrong, you never lay your eyes in a married man, n-e-v-e-r and Pit is a pig he should have waited insted of having a relationship with his lover rigth away, what happen with all the denial of something between them? And Anniston needs to grab the bull by the horns and start dating Matthew Mcconaughey he is much cuter than Pit and seems to be more the type for Anniston. Another thing about Jolie-Pit, why they don't help children in the United States? There is people here that also need help. I believe U.S. made Pit and Jolie why they do not give back to their country? Instead they look down to U.S. and go to have their baby somewhere else, but they still come here to promote their movies? maybe there is more publicity if you help Namibia or any orther country but U.S. who knows
And Jolie stop using Anniston for publicity, it is getting old you are a homewrecker that is it stop talking about her, just be yourself, what happened with the Jolie that drank blood and kiss her own brother did Pit ever saw this? Because I am sure her kids are going to grow up and know who she was and how she and Pit were together. Anyway I believe we all should look forward to Jolie's and Pit's split then we will have something else to talk about. I also wonder how Jolie can sleep at night when Pit could be having a romance with another Mrs. Smith =) An Pitt I hope she cheats on you with her brother sucker is that child even yours?

I love Brad and Angelina and am so thrilled that things are going so well for them. I admire Angelina and Brad for the work they are doing in the foreign countries. People can condemn them all they want, but you know what, they really do not care because they know they are good decent people and a beautiful couple. I am a 63 year old grandmother and I say leave them alone and just let them be happy!!! I believe Brad and Angelina when they say nothing happened before his divorce; yeah maybe they became friends, but things happen the way God wants them to.
As far as Ms. Jen Aninston is concerned, she just needs to get over herself and look for her so called 'sensitivity chip'. Jen needs to stop and look within herself instead of blaming others. It seems that none of her relationships have worked out for her, so does that not tell her something. Get on with her life and stop blaming. I use to love her, but since she has made the assumptions that she has, I do not care that much for her right now. It is about forgiveness and moving on.
