Baby bliss for Alanis Morissette as she and her husband take son Ever on a family outing

She became famous for her passionate and occasionally angry songs like You Outta Know and Hand in My Pocket.

But Alanis Morissette was today showing her softer side as she and her husband Mario 'Souleye' Treadaway took her six-month-old baby Ever on a family outing in Los Angeles.

Looking pretty in an bright pink dress, flip flops and a pair of aviator sunglasses, the 37-year-old singer couldn't stop smiling as she walked alongside her husband of one year.

The baby looked content in his baby carrier strapped to his father's chest, and wore a cute sun hat to protect him from the heat.

The couple held hands as they walked along in the upmarket Pacific Palisades area of the city.

Alanis gave birth to Ever - her first child - back in December, and immediately wrote about how besotted she was with her new arrival. 

'Ever has cracked open a door in my heart that I had been dusting off for years in anticipation of this kind of opportunity to love,' she wrote.

She also described motherhood as being like 'the softest and cuddliest sucker punch.'

Alanis has been enjoying being a new mother in recent months, but ensured she kept busy during her pregnancy by writing a new book, which is due for release later this year.

The singer is also due to reprise her role as no-nonsense obstetrician Dr Audra Kitson in hit U.S. TV drama series Weeds when it returns to screens.
