Selma Blair and her mother Molly have their hands full as they take energetic toddler Arthur shopping

Her 17-month-old Arthur is growing up fast and is clearly a bundle of energy.
So Selma Blair must have been a little grateful to get some help with her vivacious toddler during a shopping trip on Sunday.
Her mother Molly stepped in to lend her daughter a hand, although both women had to keep a watchful eye on little Arthur in the parking lot of upmarket West Hollywood store Fred Segal.

Selma, 40, emerged from the store carrying the youngster, but soon had to put her bundle of energy down.
She and her mother then had to grab his hands as he toddled towards the car.
The Hellboy star looked low key in a pair of black trousers, black jacket and white top with light brown scarf for the trip, while her youthful mother sported a jumper, leggings and black boots.

The actress split from Arthur's father Jason Bleick last September and has adapted well to life as a single mother.
Selma has been spending plenty of time with her son over the holiday period, before she embarks on her next film project.
The raven-haired beauty will next be seen opposite Melanie Lynskey in forthcoming period film Four Saints - about four nurses who operate an illegal dressing station near the trenches of World War I.

She also stars alongside Charlie Sheen in his sitcom Anger Management.
