Hecate
Mandy Moore and her husband Taylor Goldsmith have welcomed their second son, Oscar Bennett Goldsmith, last october. Ozzie, as he is called, joined big brother Gus, who was just over a year and a half when Ozzie was born. Mandy recently shared some thoughts on motherhood on Instagram, being a mom to two young boys and getting back to work: it’s hard! She recently posted a picture of her baby Ozzie breastfeeding, while apparently trying to rest, with the caption “Two under 2. That’s a lot.”
Mandy Moore becomes aware of the life of a working mother.
Sharing a photo on her Instagram Story on Saturday where she breastfeeds her 3-month-old son Ozzie, the This Is Us actress admits she has a lot on her plate as a working mom to two kids under two.“2 Under 2. That’s a lot,” the 38-year-old mum captioned the photo with her eyes closed.
Moore shares Ozzie and her 23-month-old son Gus with husband Taylor Goldsmith, and has documented her return to the game after welcoming her second baby boy.Last month, Moore opened up about juggling her sick family in another post shared on Instagram.
She captioned the photo as a checklist, saying she has a “toddler with the flu and croup”, an “exhausted family” and “trying to stay healthy with the newborn and to breastfeed 24 hours a day.
Oh my. If these little guys are just done getting sick and Mandy is back at work, “a lot” is an understatement. “Two under” of any age is a lot, I don’t care if they have a job and a spouse. We were thinking this morning about what a quiet house might look like. However, as someone who is decidedly in the “not a baby” column, yes, children under seven take a lot more work. And having them in several is just a really bad idea – just kidding! It’s a nice idea, but you’ll never know privacy again and I promise you’ll miss it. Good news, you (mostly) get your life back when the kids are 12. And they’re both teenagers, and that’s really, so much better. But it’s still a LOT.
Looks like Mandy is working on Dr. Death. I’m not family with this show but I just read above for this post, color me curious. mandy too canceled his tour because Ozzie’s pregnancy proved too difficult for her. I wonder if she will come back to this? After catching his breath, of course. She has a lot to focus on right now. Poor thing. Man, I don’t miss those days. I swear that’s why they make kids so cute. Speaking of Jimminey Crickets, Mandy’s boys really are dolls!
