Sunday Cute Shot - Frances Peet Works Without a Net

Whit Honea — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 11:04:00 GMT

Amanda Peet is on stand-by should her daughter Frances need some cushion.

I'd have to say that the big, wide-spaced, metal ladders are my least favorite thing on the playground. The glory of defeat looms large on those bars.

Amanda Peet and the Missing Lovey

trix — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 23:32:00 GMT

Amanda Peet is a traveler, as is her daughter. She told Ellen Degeneres that she pretty much brought Frances' whole world with them anytime they went somewhere.

Amanda would take all kinds of stuffed animals with them to see which one Frances would get attached to. She got attached to a cow, and then Amanda had to ask someone for a gift back- a twin of said cow, so that they could placate Frances when said cow got lost. They now have two cows, one for now and one in hiding. You know just in case cow # 1 has to be washed or repaired.

Ha, we all know how well this works. It works like a charm until the beloved toy gets lost and is out of production. How pathetic have we become when we scramble all over creation trying to find the toy.

I made that mistake with pacifiers. Thank goodness we finally got our youngest off the dummy. What a lifesaver and nightmare, all in one tiny little package you can buy at Target.

Amanda and Frances- Fun In The Sun

Amanda Peet took her little Frances to the park. Mommy is looking good in her Aviator glasses.

Frances will turn two in February. I really need to start going to the parks celebrities hang out at. Ha, not really. Those poor people and the cameras that surround them would have my kids running for cover.

On second thought they would probably ham it up for the cameras, saying "fuzzyfeet."

Jane Kaczmarek Says Children Keep Her Young

Karl Erikson — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 14:31:00 GMT

Former "Malcolm in the Middle" mom Jane Kaczmarek is 52 now and starring in the brand new "Raising The Bar" on TNT. Jane has a tribe of her own, of course, with husband Bradley Whitford. There's Frances, 11, George, 8, and Mary Louisa, 5. And she says her kids definitely keep her young, if for no other reason than the fact she is often "hanging out with all these women in their 30s."

"I think the great thing about being older is you are so much more aware that your days are numbered," Jane says. "I am so grateful for everything in my life at this point. It doesn't get any better than this, and you realize this is all going to end one day."

That very notion is what made Jane fire her nanny and take a lot of time off after "Malcolm in the Middle" wrapped for the last time. She loved her nanny, but "didn't want somebody else, no matter how good they are," to fill the mommy role. "They are my kids. I want to be taking care of them."

Brad and Jane are celebrity parents, but they keep their kids very grounded. There's only one TV in the house "that's usually never on." Both parents drive Hondas. And for birthdays, the couple requests donations for Smile Train or the Children's Defense fund, two amazing kids' charities.

I think that's where I draw the line. Not at charity, of course, but hell...birthdays are birthdays, man. Kids deserve presents on birthdays, something other than underwear and socks.

Still, it's pretty admirable, the parenting job Jane and Bradley are doing. Gotta love the family values thing. It seems pretty rare in Hollywood.

Amanda Peet Teaches Daughter How to Fight the Power

Whit Honea — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 00:34:00 GMT

Amanda Peet takes it to the street. Peet and husband David Benioff thought a picket line would be a good place for daughter Frances Pen to learn the lessons of Public Enemy. Frances has big plans to fight the power. Someday.

In the meantime, don't offer unions pizza.

Amanda Peet Makes Daughter Frances A Cow

BadKitty — Tue, 23 Oct 2007 19:21:00 GMT

For Halloween, that is. Eight month old Frances is going to dress up as a cow. Or be dressed up by Amanda, if you want to get technical.

Amanda and husband David Benioff picked the outfit because they love singing the Bob Dylan song Milk Cows Half Blues to Frances. Cute and artistically ambitious. We approve.

Amanda Peet in Stripes with Frances

Whit Honea — Mon, 06 Aug 2007 12:02:00 GMT

Amanda Peet must have known that I'm a big Stripes fan. I loves me the quotes. As a matter of fact, some of the best lines are by the character Frances, but I'm not going to use them here, because he was a psycho, and this little girl is a sweetie.

See, I have a heart.
