ahhhhh omg a new dad moodboard would be so cute for literally any character (especially driver or lars)
Got a bit carried away with my ideas on this-
Lars x reader - new parents; birth mention, hospital mention, recovery, crying and general fluff!
You name your baby Elinor after Lars’s mom. It was your idea and Lars will never get over that; he sobbed all night with happy tears when you suggested it. And he sobbed all night when she was born too. Dagmar was at the birth to help Lars through it more than anything, and no one would have been able to get him out of that hospital until you were coming home.
He functions on no sleep, to the point that you have to force him to rest. He just wants to be the best dad and partner, and give you and your baby everything he never really had. He wants you to recover well and he doesn’t want to take his eyes off you or baby for a second. He also makes hot chocolate and snacks around the clock to keep your energy up!
Mrs Gruner and the ladies from bible study knit and crochet blankets to look similar to the one Lars’s mom made for him but in every colour of the rainbow. They help with brining meals over and decorating the nursery, too, and everyone in town has something cute and useful to pass down to you.
When Elinor naps, Lars runs you a bath and makes you both dinner for later, and you have to remind him to take time to rest too.
Mrs Gruner will knock on your door and insist you go out for dinner and movie with Lars on a semi-regular basis while she babysits. Karin and Gus have Elinor to sleep over at their house so you and Lars can spend a night to yourselves now and again, too.
Nothing can take the smile off Lars’s face, he wants to show his baby off to everyone! Pushing the stroller around town is the highlight of his day. And feeding his baby. And bath time. And- I could go on, but you get the idea!
Lars Lindstrom + new dad for anon
