Earlier this month the mom of three told PEOPLE about how her family has changed since they welcomed their third child in December 2023.

"Three kids is a lot, but it is the greatest blessing ever. I mean, our little guy's amazing," Johnson East said. "Our kids are in love with him. They couldn't be better big siblings. It's just been trying to figure out how to do three logistically [that] has been interesting, but a fun challenge."

The athlete added how mealtimes can be challenging, especially trying to introduce her kids to new foods. She said, "I have very stereotypical children that like macaroni and cheese and sauces and stuff."

In January, the mom of three got real about the harder parts of having a newborn at home with older kids.

"Most amazing thing about this special small window of time with a newborn is being able to hold, cuddle, nurse, and be with him 24/7," she wrote. "It's a time like no other that you'll never get back."

"BUT. The hardest part of this short phase is missing my big kids," she went on to admit. "Daddy is doing the best job in the world showering them with attention and adventures but this mama misses her big babies."
