A late-night blowout? Oh, baby! Joanna Gaines recently spent her evening dealing with a mess that moms everywhere know all too well. She shared a photo on Instagram [3], featuring a tiny glimpse of her new son Crew [4], and a whole lot of familiar cleaning combat supplies — baby wipes, soap, and towels.
Joanna doesn't let anything hold her back, including all-nighters cleaning up after her 2-month-old. Just look at that clean, light-colored carpet! It's a modern miracle. Her photo caption reads, "Evidence of a late night up with my boy" along with the hashtag "#thisis40," leaving us feeling even more inspired.
The HGTV star revealed in the latest edition of The Magnolia Journal that baby Crew was an unexpected surprise [6]. "I truly believed I was done," Joanna wrote. At 40 years old, her pregnancy with her fifth child [7] was "different" than her previous ones, and she felt "a bit more worn out" while carrying Crew, but nonetheless says he is still a gift to their family.
