Photoshoot at a Random Person's House

Sounds fishy, don't it??

Apparently, this is very common in the world of print and media. We got to our location in Cheviot Hills just before 1. Let me just say that this was by far our favorite shoot. The production people, as well as the talent was absolutely amazing.

We were told to bring outfits with us, but it turns out Morgan's outfit was her "birthday suit." She was the primary baby in the bathtub, with a mom that looked nothing like me :-P However, they developed chemistry early in the day. Once Miss Mo went into the photoshoot, she turned on her charm. I was convinced she would do horrible, as she was cranky and teething all morning. But once that camera came out, she was a whole other kid. She rocked it for 45 minutes.

We had the production team dancing and giggling, and we all rocked out to The Jackson 5's "ABC," in a random person's master bath. And what a bathroom it was. No less than 15 production people were in there! They set up in the shower, and they shot Mo in the bath. Great times.

Thank you!!

New Auditions

Baby line for Morgan

Mo got called in for an audition for a baby line of products. The audition wasn't too far, in Santa Monica. We got to the studio, went in, got called, got a picture taken, and that's it. Shortest audition ever. Thank goodness, because I had to haul my cookies home to pick up Mad and take her to an audition on the west side. Phew!!

Commercial for Madison

Madison had a commercial audition in the afternoon. Only a couple of girls older then her were there. We went in and I sat on the casting couch. LMAO. Mad was instructed to say her name and age, followed by waving and saying "Hi mommy and daddy!" Then she had to sweetly say "Goodnight daddy, I love you." She was cute and did as instructed. Afterwards I asked her if she had fun, and she gave an exuberant "Yes!"

Morgan's New Headshot - 6 months

Carter's Audition

Daddy's second audition, first time with Morgan.

The audition started well, simply because Morgan napped twice beforehand. Always key to an audition for a baby! Checked in, filled out the appropriate forms and got doted on by the casting team. There were about 10 other kids there with parents; Morgan was the only blonde haired, blue eyed kid. Got called in fairly quickly, for a wardrobe change into a Carter's sleep n play. Put her down on a fuzzy rug and she turned on the charm, rolling around, smiling, etc. Afterwards, called MOMager to let her know that "Mo rocked it!"

Daddy was right...Morgan booked the job.

Subaru Audition

Daddy took Madison on this audition. It was his first time at an audition for either of the girls. This would be his account...

We walked in. There were two or three other kids. Sat down for a few minutes after filling out a profile. Called her in. Madison went in by herself, for the first time. She didn't want me to go with her. They asked her to skip across the stage, behind a partition. She doesn't know how to skip. Heard the clanking of Madison's attempts to skip. She came out about 30 seconds later. That was that. You can be the judge of the result of her audition by the brevity of the audition. Thank you Subaru.

I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant!!

No, not me! Trust me, I knew, you couldn't miss my belly.

Morgan taped her first show today, at one month old. She should win an Emmy, because she played the role of a premie and a 5 lbs newborn (she's almost 10 lbs).

Last night I got the email and call with the call sheet information. We were headed to downtown Los Angeles to a warehouse, Central City Studios. Our call time was 2:30 p.m. Oh yeah, the glamorous life. We were escorted to a fabulous dressing room, with a space heater :-/ Morgan actually did quite well for being the unexperienced actor...I fed her bewbie, and she slept through the whole thing. Perfect. And so her professional life begins?
