Run, don’t walk, to see Blake Lively’s adorable baby bump in Christmas pajamas in the new pic Ryan Reynolds just shared
As much as we love Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively and want to obsessively follow every moment their adorable family experiences, they’re a notoriously private couple. In fact, it’s rare that we see them at all outside of public appearances to promote their work—and when it comes to their family, well, the couple has been known for not making public pregnancy or birth announcements, keeping names under wraps, and keeping their kids off social media almost entirely. And power to them! They deserve their privacy—for themselves and for their kids.
But that’s why it’s such a joy when they do give us an inside peek at their lives together, like Ryan Reynolds just did on Instagram. He shared the sweetest photo of himself, Santa, Mrs. Claus, and a very pregnant Lively decked out in some adorable Christmas jammies.
Even though the photo is objectively perfect, Reynolds obviously couldn’t resist trolling his wife, just a little bit.
“We met Jessica Claus and her husband on the Polar Express,” he wrote. “She was everything I’d always dreamed since I was a kid. She smelled like cinnamon buns and sangria.”
Funny, that’s what we imagine Lively is like.
While they weren’t included in the public photo, we imagine that Reynolds and Lively visited the Polar Express with their three daughters—seven-year-old James, six-year-old Inez, and three-year-old Betty—in tow. Lively is currently expecting baby number four for the couple, and Reynolds has opened up previously about how they don’t know if they’re expecting their first boy, or another daughter.
“I don’t know. We never find out til (the baby is born),” he said during an appearance on the Today show last month. “I know girls so I’m sort of kind of hoping that, but I’m ready for whatever happens.”
