She may be a successful young actress who's had her fair share of lead roles, but there's one real-life role Jessica Alba appears to be relishing.

The Hollywood actress took 20-month old Honor for a day out to the Coldwater Canyon Park on Mulholland Drive in Beverly Hills with her husband Cash Warren, her mother Catherine and other family members.

And the 28-year-old looked to be having just as much fun as her little girl as she ran around and went on the slide and swings.

Wearing a simple grey cardigan, white t-shirt, grey jeans, flat shoes, a silk blue scarf and a pair of Ray Bans the doting mother was the picture of happiness.

She dressed Honor in a cute pink tunic with white polka dots and dark blue jeans - taking her tan boots off to let her run bare foot around the play area.

And father Cash also got in on the act, pushing his happy young daughter on the swings.

Two weeks ago the proud mother showed off her toddler on Twitter, posting pictures taken on a family day at her Los Angeles residence.

One photo shows 20-month-old trying on a pair of black-rimmed specs while sitting on her mother's knee.

Jessica captioned the picture with: 'My lil lovely cute as a button'

Another snapshot showed little Honor in the actress' back garden wearing a T-shirt that read 'My heart belongs to Ellen DeGeneres'.

Jessica's tweet read: 'Cutest Valentine's Day photo. Thanks to The Ellen Show 4 providing the wardrobe. Hahaha.'

And it's not just becoming a mother that has made the successful actress happy.

She recently revealed that the financial security that has come with her success, has made her much happier.

In an interview with Scarlet magazine she said: 'Making lots of money has made me happy."

The actress added that she is proud of what she has achieved by herself.

'No-one else has helped me,' she said.

'I've done this all by myself, on my own terms. My dad's also turned his real estate business around and doing really well and my brother acts, models and does mortgages, so we've all come up there in the world.

'Anyone out there who gets bullied should realise that they can take control of their lives and succeed.'
