Spending time with her little bundle of joy, Gisele Bundchen and son Benjamin Brady were spotted out in SoHo, New York City on Wednesday afternoon (September 8).
The sexy supermodel pushed her baby boy around town - working through a bit of a tantrum while hitting up Balthazar for lunch with a few friends.
As previously reported by GossipCenter, Gisele was among the many stars turning up for Fashion's Night Out at the Lincoln Center on Tuesday night.
Joining fellow models including Naomi Campbell, Adriana Lima and Karlie Kloss, the gals arrived at the show aboard a red, double-decker tour bus before strutting over 171 outfits during the Fashion Week kickoff event.

Taking a break from rehearsals for Fashion's Night Out, Gisele Bundchen was spotted out in the Upper West Side of New York City on Tuesday (September 7).
The Victoria?s Secret model looked a bit worn out, yet sexy as usual, as she took a few moments to relax during a well-deserved break from walking the runway ahead of last night?s star-studded event.

Spending time in her homeland to tend to her all-important spokesmodel duties, Gisele unveiled the new Pantene Pro-V hair products in Sao Paulo, Brazil on Thursday (August 12).
Showing off her fit and fine post-baby body, the sexy supermodel smiled as she held up a few of the brands new offerings while posing for pictures and fielding questions from media members.
The Sao Paulo sighting comes as Miss Bundchen continues to receive flack for her comments on breastfeeding - as she said, ""There should be a worldwide law ? that mothers should breast-feed their babies for six months."
The latest to disagree with Gisele's remarks is reality star/new mom Bethenny Frankel, who said, "It's the most absurd thing I've ever heard. Breast-feeding is one of the most rewarding experiences, but it isn't for everyone."

Earlier this week, parts of Gisele Bundchen?s interview for the September issue of Harper?s Bazaar UK began to trickle out. Her most notable comments - the part of the interview that got the most coverage and drew the most outrage - was about breastfeeding. Gisele told the magazine: ?I think breastfeeding really helped (me keep me figure). Some people here (in the US) think they don?t have to breastfeed, and I think ?Are you going to give chemical food to your child when they are so little?? I think there should be a worldwide law, in my opinion, that mothers should breastfeed their babies for six months.? Yeah, that whole ?there should be a worldwide law? part really upset a lot of people.
So Gisele decided to publicly eat sh-t for her comments by posting a statement on her blog. But, being Gisele, she didn?t want to just issue a simple apology, something like, ?I?m sorry my comments were misconstrued, that wasn?t what I meant? or ?On second thought, I was wrong to say that.? And she didn?t just flat-out blame the magazine, which is kind of nice - you know a lot of celebrities would have pulled a ?Harper?s is SO MEAN!? No, Gisele?s backtrack was actually kind of thoughtful. She?s basically saying that in the course of the interview, she was talking to the interviewer like she would talk to a girlfriend about breastfeeding, and that ?It?s unfortunate that in an interview sometimes things can seem so black and white.? She also puts down her insufferable bitch persona long enough to say ?I understand that everyone has their own experience and opinions and I am not here to judge… I think as mothers we are all just trying our best.? Here?s her full statement:
?My intention in making a comment about the importance of breastfeeding has nothing to do with the law. It comes from my passion and beliefs about children. Becoming a new mom has brought a lot of questions, I feel like I am in a constant search for answers on what might be the best for my child. It?s unfortunate that in an interview sometimes things can seem so black and white. I am sure if I would just be sitting talking about my experiences with other mothers, we would just be sharing opinions. I understand that everyone has their own experience and opinions and I am not here to judge. I believe that bringing a life into this world is the single most important thing a person can undertake and it can also be the most challenging. I think as mothers we are all just trying our best.?

Do you forgive her? I think it?s good that she answered her critics and backtracked on the ?law? part of her original interview. I also think Gisele is a very effusive, emotional, high-strung woman, and I could totally see that she would say something hyperbolic, like, ?I think there should be an international law against Clive Owen wearing pants, for real? and everyone gets upset. Do I still think that Gisele is sitting there, judging all mothers who she doesn?t deem as up to her exacting, painless, potty-training at six months and mandatory breastfeeding standards? Yep. I read a veiled layer of condescension in her comments, but I can?t quite put my finger on it.

I?m totally embarrassed I missed these quotes from Gisele Bundchen when I was covering her Harper?s Bazaar UK cover yesterday. While Gisele did not discuss Bridget Moynahan, she did decide to ponitificate further about how she?s an amazing mother and how we could all learn at her feet (the feet of a perfect mother), and I totally missed the quotes. Ah, well. Better late than never, eh?
First, a little backstory on post-maternity Gisele: she?s an insufferable bitch. I know, I know. I like her too, and I think she?s interesting and she gives interesting interviews. But she?s also an insufferable bitch. She?s like the Brazilian Gwyneth Paltrow, always deigning to ?advise? the peasants how to live their lives. In her Vogue cover story earlier this year, Gisele talked about her maternity weight gain and how quickly she lost it, saying, ?I think a lot of people get pregnant and decide they can turn into garbage disposals. I was mindful about what I ate, and I gained only 30 pounds.? Then a month ago, Gisele claimed that her not even 7-month-old son Benjamin was already potty trained, because she?s an environmentalist: ?Diapers pollute the environment. Where does this garbage go??
Okay, so maybe she?s not as bad as Gwyneth. But wait until you read the excerpts from Bazaar:
Gisele Bundchen has risked the wrath of new mothers everywhere for the second time this year. The opinionated supermodel, who preached about pregnant women ‘treating their bodies like garbage disposals’ in March, has now voiced her views on the breastfeeding.
In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar magazine, the 30-year-old says, ‘I think breastfeeding really helped (me keep me figure). Some people here (in the US) think they don’t have to breastfeed, and I think “Are you going to give chemical food to your child when they are so little?” I think there should be a worldwide law, in my opinion, that mothers should breastfeed their babies for six months.’
The Victoria’s Secret model gave birth to son Benjamin Rein in December, and claims that the eight-hour natural birth ‘didn’t hurt in the slightest’.
Speaking in the September issue of the magazine, outspoken Bundchen says meditating prepared her to give birth to Benjamin.
‘It prepared me mentally and physically. It’s called ‘labour’ not ‘holiday’ for a reason, and I knew that,’ she says. ‘You want to go into the most intense physical experience of your life unprepared? That doesn’t make any sense to me. Then I was ready and I thought OK, let’s get to work. I wasn’t expecting someone else to get the baby out of me.’
The super-mum was up and about making pancakes the day after the birth, and famously modelled swimwear within six weeks.

Would I like to see a national, even an international discussion about breast-feeding? Sure. Would I like to see breast-feeding friendly laws go into effect everywhere? Uh-huh. Do I think breastfeeding is important? Yep, I do, but I have to admit something: I wasn?t breastfed as a baby, and I?m just fine. So are lots of babies who aren?t breastfed. Of course breastfeeding is awesome and the health benefits for the mother and the baby are incredible, but it?s also not the end of the world if a woman doesn?t breastfeed. I also think every woman has got to make that choice for herself and her baby, just like every woman has got to make her own choices about every part of her reproductive rights and her own body. Even if Gisele was just being hyperbolic - and I don?t even think she was, honestly - even putting that idea out there, to suggest that there should be laws demanding that women breastfeed - just ugh. I?ve said it before: Gisele needs to get a grip.

Landing the prized September cover, Gisele Bundchen posed for a stylish spread for Harper's Bazaar UK's 'The Fashion Issue'.
Set to hit newsstands on August 5th, the supermodel mommy opened up in the accompanying interview on topics such as childbirth, breastfeeding and getting back in tip-top shape following the arrival of baby Benjamin Brady.
The 30-year-old tells, "I think breastfeeding really helped (me keep me figure). Some people here (in the US) think they don't have to breastfeed, and I think 'Are you going to give chemical food to your child when they are so little?'"
Miss Bundchen continues, "I think there should be a worldwide law, in my opinion, that mothers should breastfeed their babies for six months."
Also revealing that she utilized meditation prior to her son's arrival, Gisele dishes, "It prepared me mentally and physically. It's called 'labour' not 'holiday' for a reason, and I knew that."
She adds, "You want to go into the most intense physical experience of your life unprepared? That doesn't make any sense to me. Then I was ready and I thought OK, let's get to work'. I wasn't expecting someone else to get the baby out of me."

The Brazilian beauty got dressed in her fitness gear and headed over to a Studio City gym to work up a sweat and maintain her famous form.
And when she was all done, Gisele strolled out of the fitness center and hopped back into her car, sporting a pulled-back hairdo and oversized shades to cover her makeup-less face.
In career news, Ms. Bundchen is currently appearing in an ad campaign for Calzedonia Swimwear thanks to her fabulous post-baby bod.
