Sarah Jessica Parker loves the smell of dirty diapers.

The 'Sex and the City' actress - who has five-month-old twin daughters, Loretta and Tabitha, with her husband Matthew Broderick - loves everything about being a mother, especially the less glamorous jobs.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick are living apart.

The couple - who have been married for 12 years and have three children together, son James Wilkie, six, and one-month-old twin daughters Marion and Tabitha - have decided to set-up home in different properties in New York, because Matthew wants to remain in Manhattan, while Sarah and the children move to Brooklyn.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are set to move to New York. The couple - who have previously rented different properties at a cost of around $100,000 a month when working in the Big Apple - have been looking around the Apthorp, a 1908 property in Manhattan currently being converted into lavish homes.

A source said: "The gated courtyard means they can get in and out of their car without being hassled by paparazzi. The building also has several other exits."

Sarah Jessica Parker has taken her new twin daughters home. The "Sex and the City" actress and her husband Matthew Broderick - whose twin daughters Marion Loretta Elwell and Tabitha Hodge were born to a surrogate on Monday - have left hospital and returned to their family home with their newly-extended brood.

According to staff at the East Ohio Regional Hospital, two vehicles with New York number plates escorted the family from the building at 11 a.m. Thursday surrounded by police vehicles.

Sarah Jessica Parker worries about the surrogate carrying her twins "on an hourly basis."

The 'Sex and the City' actress is appalled at the attention the woman carrying her daughters has received - she is followed by photographers and has reportedly had her phone tapped - and is concerned the scrutiny could cause difficulties in the pregnancy.
