Tom doesn't play favorites when it comes to his kids. He's been snapped with Suri all week, as they did NYC with mommy Katie to promote her new movie, Mad Money. But Cruise took a break to trek back to LA for the 13th birthday of son, Connor.

The father-son bonding took place at The Cut at the Beverly Wilshire hotel yesterday.

Cruise adopted Connor and Isabella, 15, during his 11-year marriage to Nicole Kidman, which ended in 2001.

Here's your weekly "awww" fix: Scientology crusader Tom Cruise and his precious little Suri, 20 months old, returning to their hotel suite on Upper East Side in New York City yesterday.

Tom and Suri have been providing moral support for mom, Kate, as she promos her new movie, Mad Money. 

He looks kinda awkward holding her, doesn't he?

Katie Holmes wants her little princess back in the spotlight, so she's talking about her again. We don't mind…she is adorable, even if her parents are a little kooky.

According to Holmes, Suri is "a very strong woman." (Is that Scientology-speak, referring to toddlers as adults?)

"I'm very proud of her," the 29-year-old actress gushed to PEOPLE magazine yesterday. "She's actually teaching me a lot – probably more than I'm teaching her."

But Mrs.Tom Cruise doesn't stop there. "She's very smart and strong," Holmes concludes. "And really magical." 

Maybe Suri's headed for a career in Vegas.

Holmes "really" needs to step up her adjective game. She's already described stepkids Connor and Isabella as "really smart and kind."  Smart. Strong. Kind. Magical. Now, could we get some examples/anecdotes that demonstrate these stellar qualities? It would make for a much better interview, you know…

Katie Holmes has congratulated her hubby's ex, Nicole Kidman, on her pregnancy. Holmes, mom to one-year-old Suri with actor husband Tom Cruise, tells People.com, "I'm so happy for her. It's wonderful."

Kidman and Cruise were married for 11 years and have two adopted children, Isabella, 14, and Conor, 12. Holmes was recently reported to be trying hard to get pregnant again, with the help of a specialist.

Little Suri strapped on her dancing shoes again and rocked out to the music of the Spice Girls, for the second time in less than a month!

On November 20, she and her parents, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes (or Kate, as Tom calls her and she now calls herself) were treated to a private concert by the group–just a fringe benefit of being buddy buddy with Posh and Becks.

Last night, the three went to LA's Staples Center to support their pals, sitting in a private booth with Becks and Posh's kid, Cruz for the 90 minute performance. Two nannies were also on hand, along with a security team, People magazine reports.

Suri cozied up between TomKat while Cruz sat on Becks' lap. Posh waved to her family and they waved back. Of course, this alerted the audience to their presence and the flashbulbs erupted.  

Suri Cruise got a 'taste' of the perks of celebrity when she got her own private concert with the Spice Girls recently

Suri's parents, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, surprised the group in L.A. as they rehearsed and were treated to an impromptu concert, according to the Spice Girls' web site. 

Us weekly reports that the celebrity trio were treated to an "exclusive performance," during which Suri "danced along to the music."

Holmes has reportedly been a big fan of the group, from back in their heyday.

We found celebrities and their children wandering around in New York City on October 20th.

Sarah Jessica Parker and her son Wilke, 4, were walking around in West Village by their home.

Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, and their baby girl Suri, 1, are all bundled up leaving their hotel room in NYC.

Suri and mom Katie Holmes are seen here at an airport in Berlin. They are saying "bye" to Grandpa Holmes while Tom Cruise is filming his new movie.

Katie Holmes and her 1-year-old daughter Suri Cruise were in Paris shopping yesterday. Tom Cruise is in Berlin filming his new movie, Valkyrie.

They started out early, spending nearly an hour at Dior's main shop on Avenue Montaigne. After they ate, it was on to a one-hour privately guided tour of the Louvre.  According to People, an eyewitness said "Suri was napping when Katie got to the Mona Lisa." There were many more hours of shopping done after that.

Katie fell and scraped her knee at one point during her shopping spree. "She seemed a little shocked but protected the baby. A bodyguard started to help her up, she handed him the child first and then straightened herself out," stated a bystander to People.

After going back to the hotel and changing, she made a few more stops before leaving Paris at 7 on a private jet from Le Bourget.

Tom Cruise is shooting a new movie Valkyrie in Germany and Katie and Suri decided to tag along. Katie Holmes and her 14-month-old daughter are sight-seeing in Tiergarten Park in Berlin on Thursday. I can't tell who Suri looks like more her mom or dad but she is still a little cutie!

On-year-old Suri Cruise will soon be a big sister, for parents Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are reportedly expecting their second child.

Rumors of a pregnancy started making rounds after the actress was spotted with a 'baby bump' when she and hubby Cruise joined pals David and Victoria Beckham to celebrate Real Madrid winning the La Liga title in a nail-biting match at the Bernabeu.

A source revealed that the couple are thrilled that they will soon be parents once again.

"Katie and Tom are thrilled about having another baby on the way. She is glowing with happiness," the source said.

Holmes, who gave birth to her daughter last year, recently told Entertainment Tonight that she wants to have more kids.

"Yes, definitely," she said when asked the question.

A source had also earlier revealed that Cruise had told Holmes that he wants to add another baby to their family when she's ready, and that Katie had given him her nod of approval.

If reports of Katie's pregnancy are true, then the new addition will make Cruise a dad of four. Aside from his daughter with Katie Holmes, he has two adopted kids.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes's daughter Suri is not only well dressed, she's well mannered. After visiting a Shreveport, La., children's store recently, the 1-year-old (with a little help from her mom) sent the owners a thank-you note on her very own embossed stationery.

Katie Holmes is having so much fun with her (very polite!) 1-year-old daughter Suri, she's ready for more kids. Asked by Entertainment Tonight if she wants to expand her brood, Holmes, 28, replied: "Yes, definitely." (Her interview with ET airs Monday.)

Holmes and husband Tom Cruise, 44, have spent the year since Suri was born largely out of the spotlight, and Holmes says of their time as a family, "We're having the best time, it's so amazing."
