Janette also shared the image, and captioned it: "Great lunch with these guys! Long overdue and wanted to get it in before life became a little busier for all of us.
"Cannot believe the next time we see each other there may be not just 1, but 2 more little humans with us! How exciting! It’ll be 7 of us soon. Loving our girl trio as well! Mia is amazing!"
