He's growing up so fast

Joanna Gaines is back with another sweet family moment—this time, it’s all about her youngest son, Crew. That's right—this post has nothing to do with farmhouse décor, renovation projects or even her famously delicious chocolate chip cookies (though I'm still thinking about those). Instead, Joanna took to Instagram to mark a special milestone: Crew’s 7th birthday!

To celebrate, the Mini Reni star shared a series of heartfelt throwback photos that gave fans a glimpse into the day Crew was born. The first image shows a sweet moment outside her hospital room, where Joanna’s older kids—Emmie, 15, Duke, 16, Ella, 18, and Drake, 20—wait to meet their new baby brother.

Another black-and-white photo captures the moment Crew came into the world, followed by a shot of Joanna holding him in bed, looking blissfully content. And perhaps the most adorable of all? A pic of Crew with all his siblings, wearing a onesie that reads, “And then there were five.”

“Seven years ago today. Happy birthday to our beautiful little boy,” the Magnolia founder wrote in the caption.

This isn’t the first time Joanna has shared major moments from her family life. In April, she posted about prom season, celebrating a big weekend for multiple kids.

“Three of our kiddos going to prom this weekend. Garden flowers blooming just in time!” she wrote, alongside a photo of a bright bouquet. “This will be the first prom for one, and the last prom for another,” she added, finishing with a teary-eyed emoji.

And earlier this year, when Emmie turned 15, Joanna went all out with silver balloons, pastel flowers and festive decorations.

Whether it’s birthdays or big milestones, Joanna knows how to make her family feel the love.
