Since Kevin Federline has been in charge of Sean Preston and Jayden James, their lives are no longer a zoo -- they're an aquarium.

With a nanny and security in tow, K-Fed took the kiddies to the Long Beach Aquarium of the Pacific on Wednesday.
Kind of interesting since they already live in a fishbowl.

Britney Spears was a surprise guest at the finale of MTV's "Rock the Cradle" last night -- and we would have gotten a great interview with her about it ... if it weren't for power windows.

She didn't go on the show, she was just there to support her manager, Larry Rudolph, who is one of the judges.

After the Commish gave her more face time with the boobers, Britney Spears continued on the right path by working her butt out Tuesday.
A smiling and healthier-looking Brit blew out of a Bally near her home holding a bottle of water and a ... cigarette. Baby steps, people, baby steps.

TMZ has more details on what Britney Spears got in court today.
As we first reported, Brit will get three days of supervised visitation per week. Sources tell us within a month she will also have overnight visitation with her kids.
We're told Commish Scott Gordon was extremely impressed with Brit's progress today. It was a different story a few months back when she completely pissed him off. The Commish was somewhat blown away by her.
The goal, we're told, is to ramp it up over the next few months so that Brit gets 50/50 custody, right back where she started from.
Stay tuned.

It is unclear whether she has overnights with the kids. A source close to the fam tells us Brit is aiming to get back 50/50 custody by August.
We've also learned Britney will spend Mother's Day with the kids.
Story developing ...

Britney Spears has gained more visitation of her two young sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James -- though how much more is unclear.

K-Fed's attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, said after the court hearing today that he wouldn't talk about the custodial timeshare between Brit and K-Fed -- except to say that it is "more than it has been." Kaplan said the modifications to custody made today will be implemented "in the near future" and Kevin's "goal and his hope is his children will have the benefit of having two parents participating actively in their lives."
Jamie and Lynne Spears released a statement that says they were "so pleased with Britney's progress" and "very appreciative" of the court's recognition of her progress.
Both parties will be back in court on July 15.

You know, when you see Britney Spears through the eyes of a sketch artist, it's like the whole head-shaving, vadge-flashing thing never even happened. She's a work of art, y'all.

Britney and K-Fed are still in court right now, but if the hearing looks like it will go on for awhile, they'll break for some vittles at noon PT.
