She’s getting so big!

Jason Bateman gives daughter Francesca Nora a lift as they attend the 5th annual Kidstock Music and Arts Festival sponsored by Hudson Jeans on Sunday in California.

Frannie, 4½, is the only child for the Horrible Bosses star and wife Amanda Anka.

What’s the actor’s top tip for parenting? “Patience,” Bateman, 42, tells PEOPLE with a laugh.

I’ve always thought this little girl was beautiful! She has gotten so big, I feel like it’s been a while since I’ve seen her.

Such a pretty little girl! Looks just like her aunt Justine.

- Jas on

That is one gorgeous little girl! I have always loved her and her middle name is the name of my beloved grandmother. :)

@Jas
I thought the same think. She is like a mini-Justine…

- Kate on

- Grace2 on

- stacey mc on

She looks just like her mom/his wife!

- Mia on

She is such a pretty little girl!

Super sweet photo. Francesca is beautiful.

*Just a side note that I noticed first thing. This image is photoshopped at the bottom of Francesca’s shirt, her pants, and Jason’s hand. It looks like they are from another photo. I just tend to find those little things interesting.

- ELO on

I think she looks so much like him!

- BabyBlogAddict on

WHOA! Suddenly she’s not a baby any more… So cute! Look at all her hair! And those beautiful eyes.

Lucky girl. Daddy is still.so.hot.

- Jen DC on

Awwwww love Francesca, what a beauty!!!! And Jason is no slouch either, ha ha. One of the cutest celebrity kids out there :)

- Ashley on

I think she looks exactly like Jason too. If you’ve seen him in Little House on the prairie, she’s his spitting image.

- Solene on

@Colleen – I totally agree! It seems like quite a while since we’ve seen Francesca.
Is it just me or does Jason Bateman get better looking the older he gets? ;)

- saydee on

yet another gorgeous child! Today must be the day for beautiful kids! Between Jade, little Hank and now Frannie! Gorgeous children!

- Serena on

@ELO-What are you talking about??? There is no photo shop in this picture,why would they have super imposed his hand from another photo? That doesn’t make any sense!
Anyway… I agree, Frannie looks identical to her Dad and Aunt Justine!

- Sunny on

Two cuties! lol

- Shannon on

She’s just beautiful, all Bateman! And Jason is a hottie dad!

- Liz on

Awww….Frannie is a little beauty! And Jason isn’t bad-looking, either! LOL

Just saw a trailer at the movies last weekend where a new movie is coming out with Jason Bateman and Ryan Renyolds. It looks really cute. Jason plays a married dad, and Ryan is the “cad.” They wish to switch lives, and they do. Looks funny, plus two hot guys in a movie – can’t go wrong with that!

- AllisonJ on

Wow she has always looked just like her dad. Just beautiful! Her hair is so pretty and long.

- coco on

@Sunny: if you look closely at Jason’s hands and Francesca’s pants, their outlines are totally perfect. It looks like his hand is just sitting on top of her shirt. There are also no wrinkles or indents in the fabric on the back of Francesca’s pants. If this was not an altered photograph there would be gathering. Its not like its that ridiculous of a thing. This hand could be from the very next image on the disk. Maybe the previous image was too hot and couldn’t be used. This happens all the time in photography.

- ELO on

She is a doll.

- Toya L. on

She is such a cutie!

- Piper on

Such a pretty child! :)

- JustMe on

ELO; you’re totally wrong! Anyone can see that his hand is just where there is a slit in her tunic – hence nu bunching or gathering, so there’s NO photoshop what so ever!!

Aside from that ridiculous accusation, both father and daughter look great! :o )

- Isabel on

Elo, you can clearly see that this is the pictuure and her shirt has a slit at the bottom which his hand is resting on. I can’t even begin to see what you are seeing……but you are very wrong.

- Jillian on

One of the most beautiful children I have ever seen. Her pappa doesn’t look so shabby, either! He’s aging so well. I have been a fan of Jason since the mid 80′s-handsome/pretty runs in that family!

- zappo on

Francesca is sooo beautiful! Looks like she’s losing her gorgeous curls a bit but her long wavy hair is just as lovely, what a sweet little girl :)
