Maggie Gyllenhaal's Getting Married

Wow, this is not a good picture of Maggie Gyllenhaal, but it was the picture the New York Post ran. The picture was run with the story that Maggie and Peter are finally going to tie the knot, maybe.

The rumor is that the couple is going to get married in Italy in the second week of May.

That's cool, it should be beautiful this time of year and it will be good for Ramona to be exposed to different cultures and sights.

I'm really jealous, I want to go to Italy too.

Maggie Gyllenhaal Loves Nature and Fisher Price

trix — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 16:33:00 GMT

Maggie Gyllenhaal is a very down-to-earth mom. She was able to reconnect with one of her childhood loves.

She presented a check from Fisher-Price to the Wildlife Conservation Society for $250,000.

The Wildlife Conservation Society saves all things wild: animals and wild places.

Fisher Price just went up a notch in my estimation.

Maggie said, “Fisher-Price is such a big part of everyone’s childhood and I am so happy to join forces with them in presenting this generous donation in support of the Wildlife Conservation Society. I remember having one of those Fisher-Price tape players, listening to Cyndi Lauper, walking around my neighborhood. I think especially in New York City, in Brooklyn where I live, it’s important to encourage children to learn about and be a part of nature. It’s difficult to find that in the city. I know from my own childhood that my connection with nature has changed the way I look at the world. I think it’s important to show them how we can and how we must co-exist. They are learning to respect the planet.”

This whole talk about Maggie and nature makes me think of "The Secretary".

Maggie Gyllenhaal Makes Choices With Ramona In Mind

trix — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 12:28:00 GMT

Maggie Gyllenhaal is a different breed of movie star mom.

On one hand she says that having Ramona has made her a better actress but on the other hand she says she would stay home rather than act any day. She says she realizes that motherhood "cracks you open in every way" and changes and deepens everything in your life.

She also says she's more tired than she ever thought she could be. She's also worked harder than ever before. Welcome to motherhood, have another and see how it is to have two, then, you will know tired.

Parenting is all about the highs and lows in life, you can love so much, be so frustrated and "so excited by the tiniest little thing. Everything about it has surprised me. I do think that it’s really difficult to get me away from [Ramona],” she said. “It’s difficult to find a script that’s good enough for me to think, ‘Okay, I really need to do this instead of being with my daughter.’ I think working after a baby is such a personal thing…everyone thinks differently."

Well said Maggie. Did you hear that Jennifer Lopez, it's all about the choices you make?
