Ben Affleck got a six-month headstart on Matt Damon in the fatherhooddepartment. So when Matt welcomed Isabella in June 2006, Ben wasall prepared to offer parenting advice.

He marched into our house one day, plopped this toy down and said, ‘This works.’ He turned around and walked out.

Matt, 36, says fatherhood has definitely changed him for the better andis glad he waited to start a family as he "wasn’t ready in my 20s."Now, he says, it all makes sense.

You find this feeling that you’ve never had before. There are great moments, and it keeps getting better as she gets older.

Marcia Cross recently ordered and was gifted with a variety of Graco products just before the birth of her twin daughters with husband, Tom Mahoney. The girls, Eden and Savannah, were born last month in LA.

At the pre-Golden Globes event Boom Boom Room Marcia requested the Graco Infant SafeSeat in central park ($199). Other celebrities that love the Graco car seats are Matt Damon and wife, Luciana, who have the Graco Snugride for the daughter Isabella, Adam Sandler and wife, Jackie, who use the Graco Snugride in metropolitan for Sadie, Kingston Rossdale has the Graco SafeSeat in mosaic and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt has ridden in the same car seat as Marcia’s twins, but the heirloom pattern. Graco car seats range from about $80 to $250 and come highly recommended, with them now having SIP (side impact protection). In terms of the top of the range safe car seats, along with the Graco car seats are the ones by Peg Perego specifically the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio Infant Car Seat ($220), which Danielle uses for Anya.

Marcia was also gifted with the Graco Pack ‘n Play Playard ($199). This item is so handy. It can be used as a double bassinet for twins and alternatively a portable play pen. It is lined with soft padding and has wheels for easy transportation around the house. It also comes with a handy carry bag so Marcia and Tom can pack it up and take it away with them, or to the set of Desperate Housewives.

Additionally, Marcia was also gifted with Graco’s Quattro Tour Duo Stroller in rittenhouse ($250). This stroller can hold a toddler up to 50 pounds, in the front seat, it has a lots of storage space and a snack and cup holder for the front passenger. Additionally, any of the SnugRide or SafeSeats can be attached to the stroller, facing either forwards or towards the driver. And the feature we think most moms (and dads) will love? It folds with one hand and the push of a button.

Graco also recently launched a new stroller, BE FRUITFUL, to benefit the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation.
