Celebrating Celebrity Baby Birthdays – Lola Rose Sheen
Name: Lola Rose Sheen
Birthday: June 1st, 2005
Famous for: Being the second daughter of Denise Richards and former husband, Charlie Sheen. The couple welcomed daughter Sam 14 months before, but split when Denise was 6 months pregnant with Lola. Bitter accusations followed and now Denise has custody of the girls, with Charlie being granted visitation rights. Following the split Denise said;
I can’t worry about being a single parent. I just want to be a good one.
Name meaning: Denise had always wanted girly names for her daughters. Charlie apparently picked the name Sam, after a cat he had previous to her birth. Denise then went on to choose her second daughter’s name saying;
Charlie really wanted Sam (as a name for our daughter) and I dreamed of one day naming a girl Sophia – something feminine – or Emma. She’s named after the cat. We don’t have the cat anymore, though.
And Lola’s name;
I just loved the name. I wanted something really girly and feminine. It’s so sweet…
Siblings: Denise and Charlie welcomed older daughter, Sam J., in March 2004. Lola also has a half-sister, Cassandra, 23, from Charlie’s relationship with Paula Profitt.
Birth story: Both girls were born via elective c-section. With Sam, Denise experienced contractions during the night before her planned c-section and was rushed to hospital to deliver the baby girl. The couple planned Sam’s delivery because it was convenient; it fit perfectly with then-husband Charlie Sheen’s planned weeklong hiatus from filming his sitcom, Two and a Half Men . "It was convenient," Denise later told People. "We like to plan things." Unfortunately, Sam didn’t get the memo and arrived even earlier – Denise went into labor on March 9th and Sam was born later that day. Lola was a planned c-section as well.

Upon Lola’s birth the couple said;
We are thrilled to finally meet our beautiful daughter, Lola.
What they said:
On the girls having to understand that they have two homes.
I’mdoing my best to let my daughters know that Mom and Dad don’t livetogether. They’ll probably be in therapy before they’re 5.
The girl’s looks and personalities.
Lolalooks very much like my mother. Sam is a combination of me and Charlie.There are times that she’s got little facial expressions that Charlieand I have. Lola came out laughing and giggling. She’s a little moreoutgoing. Sam’s a little shy at first. They’re both fun. They’re soanimated and they’re getting to be a great age.
Denise’s favorite things to do with her girls.
Mygirls are so much fun. I love dressing them up. We sit by the pool andget manicures and pedicures together…we’ll go in the pool or playwith the dogs in the backyard.
Denise had a great girly Mother’s Day with her daughters and mother.
It’s fun just to walk around and go to the little boutiques and have lunch and so we’ll just make it a girly afternoon.
