Avatar star Zoe Saldana posted an updated photo on Instagram Wednesday.
“God bless the child that’s got his own, That’s got his own–Billie Holiday,” the new mom, 36, captioned the image with one of her 5-month-old twin sons — Cy or Bowie. “#Motherhood #LoveTheseKids”
In a Wednesday Facebook post, the Guardians of the Galaxy star also revealed her children’s latest milestone.
“The boys are 5 months and they are teething,” she wrote. “We are getting creative every day on finding ways to keep them entertained (mothers, we are open for suggestions) so that we can get some work done.”
As it turns out, that work includes exercising in the living room.
“I do not have anything to prove to anyone,” she continued. “I am not obsessed with working out or with being skinny (yes, this is for all the haters that are itching to judge and make this a negative thing).”
The actress goes on to remind new moms not to focus on their body after baby, and revealed that her husband Marco Perego is very good at reminding her that the occasional indulgence is a good thing.
“Mommies, don’t beat yourselves if you fall off the wagon and eat like teenagers,” she added. “Yesterday we took our friend out for sushi and I swear I ate everything AND the kitchen sink. Right before I started my typical routine of self-loathing Marco looked at me and said “Z, it’s ok. Start again tomorrow”. I loved him for that, he reminded me there always tomorrow to make right what you have undone today. I’m also reminded that this is for life and not a temporary fix. So why am I going to add more stress to my life by putting a deadline on my healthy lifestyle.”
