Stepping out earlier today (October 5), Katie Holmes toted daughter Suri in her arms as she left her New York City apartment with husband Tom Cruise's adopted kids, Isabella and Connor, following along.

With Connor kindly carrying Suri's stuffed toy sheep, the group hopped in their chauffeured SUV - heading off to an uptown Manhattan restaurant to meet Katie's parents for a bite to eat.

Meanwhile, Tom was noticeably absent from the family outing, although he had his turn last night taking out his three kiddies to restaurant Le Bernadin.

While Tom was taking care of his fatherly duties last evening, Katie happened to be bringing in the bucks as she continued along with her "All My Sons" preview performance schedule.
