It may seem like just yesterday your fave Fixer Upper stars were ‘Gramming pregnancy and newborn pics. Well now a little over six months old, Joanna Gaines’ son Crew is talking. Yep, talking—and you’ll never guess his first word!

In a recent IG post Gaines wrote, “Crew is already six months old and saying ‘mama,'” playfully adding: “I had to throw that in there, sorry Chip.” So that’s mama one, dada zero—at least for now. It’s official: Crew is a mama’s boy—in the best way, of course.

Gaines’ IG caption wasn’t just a cute way of announcing her little guy’s first word. The poignant post also pointed to just how fast time goes by. “And just like that I have found myself mourning the past but now in future tense. You see what I just did there? The whole time thing can feel like a thief if you let it in.”

What is Gaines doing to slow down time—as much as any normal human can? Gaines shared her resolution to “live for now” in the New Year. The celeb designer and mama of five also added, “I’m challenging myself in this new year to live for now. The present. Taking in every breath, every sight, and sound and holding it dearly. Not thinking about how the good ol’ days have passed us by or how the best is yet to come.”

Very well said!
