Alyson Hannigan Talks About Satyana Marie

Alyson Hannigan’s nine-month-old daughter plays tricks on her.

The ‘American Pie’ star’s nine-month-old baby Satyana Marie finds it funny to tease her mother at bedtime to avoid going to sleep.

She plays jokes on me when I try to put her to bed. This one time, I told her that ‘It’s time for bed’ and she has to go to sleep. She put her head down when I said the word ’sleep’ and as soon as I got to the door, she would prop herself up and start laughing. She did this at least 12 times.”

The 35-year-old actress loves motherhood and is so “fascinated” by Satyana – her child with husband Alexis Denisof – she watches her play for hours on end. She explained to Working Mother magazine:

“There’s so much that happens the first year. I could watch her all day long, just to see her discovering new things… I’m so fascinated by her.

“The most joy is when I can just be on the floor with her and watch her play with one of her toys, or discover how to put her toes in her mouth - something very baby-like.

“It’s just the most rewarding aspect of my life so far. All the cliches are so true. I just love her so much.”

Alyson can’t bear to be away from the tot for long and has even built a nursery on the set of ‘How I Met Your Mother’ so she can look after Satyana between scenes.

“They’ve set up a nursery. So I get to go in and feed her, nurse her and change her diaper.

“I just don’t know how I could be away from her for that long otherwise.”

Lucky for her the studio was so accommodating. :)
