Shawn Johnson gets 5 new tattoos in 1 session to honor her kids and husband Andrew East: ‘I did a thing’

Shawn Johnson honored her three kids and husband, Andrew East, with new ink.

The Olympic Gymnast took to her Instagram Story Monday to show off five new tattoos she got in one sitting while taking a break from mommy duty.

On her lower outer arm, Johnson revealed a tribute to her daughter, Drew Haze — the 4-year-old’s name written in cursive.

She then showed off her other arm with “Jett James” printed in typewriter font as a tribute to her 2-year-old son.

The retired athlete — who recently welcomed her son Barrett Madison in December — shared his name on the back of her arm in all caps.

While Johnson didn’t get her husband’s full name written, she paid homage to the former NFL star with the letter “A” inked below her collarbone.

She also got a cute honeybee right above her wrist, though it’s unclear why.

Johnson and East, both 32, tied the knot in 2016 after nearly four years of dating ahead of the retired pro footballer’s exit from the NFL.

Within a year, the Nashville, Tenn. locals got pregnant before tragically experienced a miscarriage at the six-week mark.

At the time, the couple explained in a video posted to YouTube that they found out about the baby the same day the gymnast miscarried.

Following the heartbreaking ordeal, Johnson and the former Washington Commanders star welcomed their “everything” — daughter Hazel Drew — in November 2019.

They extended their family less than two years later with their son Jett in July 2021.

After that, the duo still wanted to grow their clan and previously revealed they “tried for months and months and months” to conceive a year after welcoming their middle child, per a YouTube video posted last year.

“We got a taste of that emotional rollercoaster of trying and hoping and thinking even we weren’t pregnant and being disappointed when we found out we weren’t,” East explained.

However, in Summer 2023 Johnson and the former Long Snapper revealed they were expecting their third child, Barrett Madison, who was born in December 2023.

The couple constantly post their daily lives with their family on social media, sharing the heartwarming and chaotic moments with their little ones.
