Despite the challenging circumstances, Mollen indicated that Sid is home and “taking things slowly while recovering well.“
When it comes to Sid, Jenny is already imagining and worrying about his future wedding.
Jenny shared,
“My greatest fear for my child is that he marries a woman exactly like me.”
“My greatest wish for my child is that he makes lots of money and that he’s able to support me when I’m old,” she says with a playful laugh.
She reveals that when she’s apart from her son and he cries on FaceTime about missing her, it brings her to tears because she can’t help.
Lazlo and the Empty Coke Bag: A Birthday to Remember
Jenny’s second son, Lazlo, was born on October 2, 2017, making him 6 years old as of August 2024.
Lazlo is four years younger than Sid and often cherishes the time spent playing and learning from his older brother.
Jenny shared in 2018 that Lazlo, who was 1 year old at the time, was bitten by a dog.
“So, Laz was bit by a dog on Thanksgiving,” Mollen posted on her Instagram Stories. “He is totally fine. He’s completely okay.”
Although the toddler walked away from the incident without significant injuries, Mollen admitted that she was deeply traumatized by the experience.
“I’ve just been having a… mental breakdown over it as a mom,” Mollen said. She then shared a clip featuring herself and Lazlo, who can be heard cooing off-camera as they snuggled in what seems to be their kitchen.
“Are you kidding me with this face? Are you kidding me? How cute are you?” Mollen said, referring to her son.
While celebrating Lazlo’s first birthday, Jenny shared that he came across an “empty coke bag.”
The star posted a photo on Instagram of herself holding the tiny plastic resealable bag, with Lazlo running off in the background.
Luckily, the bag was empty, and Lazlo was safe. Despite the potentially severe nature of the incident, Mollen saw the funny side and joked about her son’s “hardcore” birthday.
Jenny has openly discussed the possibility of having a third child in the past. In 2020, she mentioned that she would be open to it under one condition.
“I mean, if [Jason] could carry it, totally,” Mollen joked. “Or if somebody could present me with a 2-year-old that looked just like me.”
