When Oliver was born, Goodwin and her husband felt they needed to be heroes so they wore themselves out doing virtually everything by themselves. With the arrival of Baby No. 2, they had a different mindset on how he was going to be raised. As soon as Hugo was born, his parents started discussing finding a nanny so they could still get busy with other things. Wilson is growing up fast and is definitely the apple of his parents’ eyes. Who knows if there might be some more babies added to the Dallas brood anytime soon?
