Thanks to madd, alfredo, MovieSleuth, Martin and everyone else who helped! Tom is in Europe (sans Katie) promoting MI:III right now, giving multiple interviews and fielding questions about Katie and Suri. Here are excerpts from a few of those interviews: "I changed her first," he said. "I change diapers all the time. I have to tell you I love it. We have a whole system worked out. It's the 'B and B' -- she [Katie] does the breast feeding and I do the burping and changing the diapers. It's teamwork. It's fun." "My own 'Mission Impossible' was getting here. That was the Mission Impossible. Because it kept going back and forth," Cruise said. "I wasn't going to come and then Kate said, you know, 'Go. Go.' ... So I'm here. And I'll be here for a few hours and then I'll get back on an airplane and go back home to Kate and Suri." ==================================== Reuters "That stuff is actually going to happen in the next couple of weeks. We are going to decide where and when and how," Cruise said. "Really whatever Kate wants, you know." ==================================== "I look at Kate and my admiration and love and respect for her, although I didn't think it could get any more, it became more," Cruise said. "It was very beautiful." ==================================== Before jetting off to Monday's big premiere, Tom opened up to "Extra" about his real-life "Mission: Impossible" -- giving those pesky paparazzi the slip to get Katie and Suri safely home from the hospital. "You think I'm going to let anybody mess with my girls? Come on, man, I make 'Mission Impossible' movies," Tom laughed. "Think I can't get in and out of a hospital in my town? I mean, it's just not going to happen." Tom told us that even his screen alter ego, secret agent Ethan Hunt, would have been proud of the stealth operation. "There was no paparazzi there, and when we left we got in our house," he revealed. "It's been really calm, actually." ==================================== "A friend of ours, a couple, sent us these [baby name] books one night and we were actually just sitting on the floor in the kitchen and we were all just having fun," Tom explains. "And suddenly there's a name. We just looked at it. I didn't even know what it meant right away but it was just one of those moments where you just go, 'Oh, that's it. That's the name.' We knew we were having a girl so we just saw Suri and found out what the name meant and it was just beautiful." ==================================== "Suri was born one year to the day exactly that I met Kate," Tom tells ET's JANN CARL, clearly punchy from the thrill of his new arrival and from lack of sleep! "It's not even just not sleeping because Suri's up," he explains. "We're not sleeping because we're just staring at her. She has this huge mop of black hair; we have the same haircut! It's pretty. She's just so pink, with black hair." Tom, who was in the delivery room for Suri's birth last Tuesday, recounts the miraculous experience of Suri's arrival: "We've been going over it and over it, as you do, just thinking about it, and it happened so quickly, and it's so personal," he says. "I'll tell you what I will share: it's everything we wanted it to be and more. It was spiritual, it was powerful, it was sublime. To love this woman the way I love this woman, and to have this child, and the family that we have -- that's what it was, really." ==================================== "Who was the first person you called?" Access' Tony Potts asked. "Her parents, Marty and Kathleen, were the first people we spoke with," Tom said. "I can tell you, you know, she has a huge mop of beautiful hair, and we have the same haircut! Hers is a little like mine, you know?" Time (05/01/06)
