Amanda Peet
Amanda Peet is totally awesome. She's mom to two little girls, Frances and Molly, and she just gave birth to a baby boy, Henry, on December 8, 2014. In addition to completely rocking motherhood, she is a very active Global Advocate for the UN Foundation’s Shot@Life campaign, which rallies parents to vaccinate their children and provides life-saving vaccines to children in developing nations. Mom of the year? Yes!
Ben Affleck
It’s hard to find a photo of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner’s trio of kids without at least one of their parents! Despite their busy work schedules, the couple manages to spend lots of quality time with Violet, Seraphina, and Samuel.
Garth Brooks
Garth Brooks took a hiatus from being "The World's Greatest Entertainer" 13 years ago, choosing instead to slog it out among the carpools and PTA meetings as a stay-at-home dad to his three girls. Shirking fame for fatherhood definitely earns him major points for quality parenting. Now that his youngest has turned 18, he returned to the road in 2014 with a world tour.
Jessica Alba
Not only has Alba started a family and eco-friendly brand, The Honest Company, which provides natural diapers, body care and non-toxic cleaning products, but she also founded the Baby2Baby charity. All this and she's probably the hottest mom on the planet? Parenting WIN.
Josh Duhamel
You can always count on Josh Duhamel to share sweet photos of him with his son, Axl, on Instagram. He's one of the most hands-on celebrity dads there is.
Kristen Bell
In 2014, Kristen Bell and her husband Dax Shepard started the #NoKidsPolicy campaign to kick the proverbial rears of child paparazzi. Saving their daughter, Lincoln's, privacy, along with that of other celebrities' children, is almost as bad ass as naming your kid after your favorite car.
Neil Patrick Harris
NPH and David Burtka are almost annoyingly adorable. Both are dads first and foremost and share almost every single family moment on social media. They are so fun and give such wonderful lives to their twins, Harper and Gideon, that they leave almost everyone jealous. Sure you have a cute family, but theirs is just the CUTEST.
Snoop Dogg
Snoop Dogg is a proven expert on many subjects: gangsta rap, Mary Jane, and gin & juice, to name a few. Little did we know that fatherly advice was yet another area of his expertise. Snoop recently bestowed some valuable nuggets of parental wisdom to his friend, former pro-athlete Deion Sanders, on his reality show Deion's Family Playbook. "Snoop, number one, is a father to me - a darn good father," Sanders gushed. "I've seen him interact with his kids and his family. And to give me that advice that he gave me, I will treasure it forever."
Stephen Colbert
Stephen Colbert is 2014's best parent because, well... he has a coffee cup that says so. “I have a mug that actually verifies that I’m the world’s best dad. That’s a mug. That’s not me talking. You can’t just buy those.” Who's to argue with that logic?
Tori Spelling
He might be a let-down of a husband and their marriage might be on the rocks, but still... Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott are two of Hollywood’s most devoted and doting parents! The former 90210 star is constantly sharing adorable snaps of their growing family on social media.
