Zoe Saldana, 37, is just like every other regular mum juggling two 10-month-old boys. She’s having a lot of, uh… fun.
Zoe and her 36-year-old Italian artist hubby Marco Perego welcomed Bowie and Cy into their family last year. The names alone sound cheeky and adventurous, but are they living up to those titles? Apparently, yes.
The mother of two explains that the boys are teething at the moment, and getting particularly “feisty” while they’re at it.
Here they are trying to escape. (Post continues after the video)

“These boys are like gladiators,” she said. “They beat the crap out of each other. I’m like, ‘Chill, man—what is going on?” They also pull each others hair (not that there is much of it at the moment). “It’s fun,” Zoe said. “It’s never a dull moment.”
On Instagram, the pair often update their thousands of followers on the boys behaviour. Last week they were playing "pirates", with one of the boys sitting in a box, presumably the ship, with a terrifying broomstick flag to warn enemies. He seemed pretty comfortable and content. Zoe opened up to E! Online about that particular incident. "Being married to an artist means that he will open the kitchen, open the closet, go to the garage and go, 'Z, it's OK. It's OK, I have the toy,' and he brings out a broomstick and tapes it to this box," she said. "And he puts one baby in and then the other one starts crying because he wants to go in there and then none of us could pack because it was all about, 'row, row,' and then you had to drag that box so they could row." Ah, the adventure. The boys enjoy relaxing to. Sort of. (Post continues after the video)

And just like every other busy mum who has to leave for work every morning, Zoe says it's getting harder and harder to say goodbye.
"It's more difficult because the more attached we have all become to each other, Marco and I and the boys," she said. "They don't want to see you go and they really make it difficult for you."
Ain't that the truth.
