This photo was taken about 1 month before my life forever changed.
I was excited as well as slightly daunted. I partnered with @gugu_guru to help me figure out what I needed in preparation for this little person who was about to take over my life and heart.
I’m sharing this because right now I know a lot of expectant parents are unable to go into brick and mortar shops to test and select products for their babies. Gugu Guru provides a personalized concierge service through which they get to know you, your needs, your budget and taste and recommend products that will fit your lifestyle perfectly.
I had no idea someone so small required so much stuff! Gugu Guru reduced my stress, saved me time, and helped me navigate the overwhelming world of all things baby to figure out what I needed on my registry and in my new life.
If you want guidance determining what you need and what you don’t, please use code AMANDAS20 for 20% off a Concierge Care or Expert Care package with @gugu_guru .
Ps. Don’t @ me. It’s plain orange juice in a fancy glass. •

3 years ago this week I was a cow person in 1852.
Swipe left to see some of my fellow cow folk and a birdseye view of the epic tent world created for #12Monkeys.
Fun fact: my horse did not care for me.

I encourage anyone who has space in their heart and home to invite a furry companion to brighten their life. Rupert has been by my side for 17 years and has made me immeasurably better for it. #nofilter #justdog
American Ballet Theatre is hosting a fundraiser for the #ABTCrisisReliefFund on their YouTube channel reuniting me, #EthanStiefel, #SaschaRadetsky and the gorgeous @ZoeSaldana.
Together again for the first time in 20 years!
Sept. 1, @ 7:30 PM EDT.
I was challenged by my lovely friend @iamsarahgrafferty to show my masked face and here it is.
I could tell you that I wear a mask because it is a basic question of hygiene. We don’t question the practice of washing our hands after using the bathroom.
I could tell you that I wear a mask as a form of respect for fellow humans. I don’t know the health circumstances of the people around me. Or who in their lives may be vulnerable.
I could tell you that I wear a mask for the same reasons I appreciate people refraining from smoking indoors or covering their mouths when they sneeze. We understand germs and pollutants in the air can cause serious damage to those around us.
But these are not the reasons I wear a mask. Every day, every time I step out of the house I wear a mask for reasons much more selfish than those I listed above. I wear a mask because I want a better life for my son. Because my son has yet to live a life without the shadow of Covid-19. Aside from his parents, my son hasn’t met a single member of his family and I don’t know when he will. He hasn’t been able to go to the park or the zoo or on a play date. I haven’t been able to share him, I haven’t been able to see the world through his eyes, because the world is too dangerous for him to experience.
The top CDC experts say that if we were all to wear masks we could get Covid-19 under control in a matter of weeks. Given this fact, how is mask wearing debatable?
If wearing a mask bothers you, I understand! It is uncomfortable. For those who say they have trouble breathing while wearing a mask I say that you are exactly who should be worried about contracting a vicious respiratory illness.
If you want your life to go back to normal, to be able to go to your favorite restaurant again, to the beach, to work, or to send your kids back to school, the most logical way to expedite that is to wear a mask.
We have an opportunity to do something that is irrefutably selfless and will ultimately benefit all of us and all it requires is a piece of cloth.
Do us all a favor and wear a damn mask.
#tbt This time last year I was in my happy place: on set. Looking forward to going back and living out the drama in someone else’s reality.

These two women set the bar impossibly high as far as costars go. @zoesaldana & @mssusanmaypratt: How lucky was I to spend the most wonderful summer “working” with you two 20 years ago. •

Rupert and I chatted with his amazing veterinarian @patrickmahaney about the mission he and @ellevetsciences are on to support pets of the homeless and others who are unable to afford veterinary care right now. @ellevetsciences is traveling through California, from San Diego to San Francisco, in the ElleVan, a mobile relief van, providing free veterinary care and supplies to pet owners who need a helping hand (or paw). To learn more about @ellevetsciences, their Pets In Need Project and how to support them visit the link in my bio.
