Congratulations to Amy Schumer!
The actress and comedian's Netflix special, Amy Schumer Growing, has scored an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special. The nominations for the 2019 Emmys were announced by actors D'Arcy Carden and Ken Jeong on Tuesday morning, with the ceremony set for September.
After learning of the Emmy nod, Schumer took to social media to celebrate the news.
"We are very proud of being EMMY nominated for our @netflixisajoke special #GROWING as we were both on stage during filming!" Schumer wrote alongside a photo of her and baby Gene, who appears to be fist-pumping in the picture. "Very proud and excited."
Schumer also shared a picture with her husband, Chris Fischer, who can be seen covering her mouth in the photo.
"Thank you everyone who voted and to my husband who wants me to never stop talking," Schumer joked.
It was just over two months ago that the couple welcomed their first child together. Schumer announced her son's arrival in early May, hours after giving birth.
Let's take a look at Schumer's sweetest mommy moments, so far!
Getting Real
"Being his mom is heaven on earth and also means a constant feeling of guilt and vulnerability I will never get used to,"Amy Schumer, who shares son Gene with Chris Fischer, wrote on Instagram in February 2022. "Your heart feels like it's outside your body and you're too old to drink the feelings away like you used to. When you were in love and scared. Send help!!!"
Happy Fourth of July
The star took her son on a holiday walk in 2019.
BFFs
"Happy Pride babies!!!" the comedian wrote on the day of the NYC LGBT Pride Parade in 2019.
Sleepy Time
Amy shared the clearest photo of Gene in 2019, writing on Instagram, "He likes looking around and laughing at his toy the black and white butterfly. Always down for a nap and a good cry if the poops are on the reg."
Happy Family
The happy parents matched with their son and dog in 2019.
Birthday Cuddles
The Trainwreck star enjoyed some snuggles with her baby boy on her 38th birthday in 2019.
Family Nap Time
Amy captioned a 2019 photo of herself snuggling in bed with Gene and her then-husband Chris, "I recommend this."
Baby's First Bath
The actress and Chris gave Gene his first bath when he was almost 3 weeks old in 2019.
Working Mom
Two weeks after Gene's birth, Amy shared a photo of herself pumping, writing on Instagram, "Sending out love to the moms shaming me for doing standup last night!"
Pump It Up
Amy captioned this photo of herself with two breast pumps, "Guys what are we doing tonight? #schumerpump #ootd."
Keeping It Real on Mother's Day
On Mother's Day in 2019, the Inside Amy Schumer alum shared a glimpse into the not-so-glamourous part of giving birth.
All Worth It
"Ok here's my post baby annoying post and my takeaway from pregnancy," Amy wrote on Instagram in 2019 shortly after her son's birth. "Women are the s--t. Men are cool and whatever but women are f--king warriors and capable of anything. I was lucky enough to get to have a doula."
"I did Pilates with strong women and went for walks," she continued. "I threw up violently and felt sick mostly every day of my pregnancy. Hyperemesis is real and it's awful. But f--k, what they say is true. The second you give birth it's gone...All my friends. Friends I've had for 30 years or people who encouraged me to 'keep going' or telling me 'it will be worth it.' Thank you. Every woman I encountered is so willing to help and advise you and I felt all their strength. And you were right. Thank you ladies from my family."
First Mommy-Son Selfie
After giving birth to her son on May 5, 2019, Amy wrote on Instagram, "New kid, who dis?"
