Joanna Gaines Shares an Intimate Look at Her New Life with Baby Crew
? Chip and Joanna Gaines welcomed baby Crew in June 2018.
? The Fixer Upper star has been very open about juggling a baby with her busy work life.
? In a new video for Magnolia, she opens up about how she handles it all.
Joanna Gaines has been very open about motherhood lately: She’s proudly celebrated baby Crew’s first big milestone; revealed that she sometimes lets social media affect her time with her kids; and even admitted that she’s had to resort to ramen for dinner. Needless to say, the former Fixer Upper star has no qualms about sharing her ups and downs with the world.
Now, she’s giving us even more insight into how she balances five children with her busy working life (which she just added to recently with her new collection for Anthropologie). A new video on Magnolia offers an up-close-and-personal view at how she juggles baby Crew with the massive seasonal install she oversees at her and husband Chip’s Magnolia Market.
In the intimate clip above, Joanna walks viewers through her day with the seven-month old. From driving in the car with an adorable-and sometimes sleepy-Crew in the backseat, to carting him around the shop in a baby carrier, she always has the talkative tot near her. (Fast forward to 2:30 seconds to hear his adorable gurgling-you won't be sorry.)
From the outside it looks like Joanna handles everything seamlessly, but she quickly calls out the little things she’s hiding.
“I have a six, almost seventh month old baby, don’t have a lot of opportunity to wash my hair, so this is my authentic self,” she said. “You throw it up and wish yourself luck, put on some earrings and hopefully people won’t notice the hair.”
But even with a messy bun, Joanna is still happy to be in this “season of life” as she adjusts to her new normal with her family.
“I feel like I’m figuring out this baby thing mixed with my four children that feel a little older and it’s so fun,” she said. “It’s very unpredictable. [I’m] just rolling with it.”
