Ayesha Curry just gave fans a glimpse of her newborn and let’s just say it’s giving all the feels.

On Monday, the 35-year-old Irish Wish actress delighted fans with an intimate Instagram Story featuring her baby boy Caius Chai. In the short clip, Ayesha tenderly touches Caius's tiny leg while "Little Life" by Cordelia plays softly in the background. "The sweetest Chai," she captioned the video.

The heartwarming clip comes a little over a month after she and her husband, NBA star Steph Curry, 36, welcomed their fourth child. The couple, who tied the knot in July 2011, are also parents to Riley, 11, Ryan, 8, and Canon, 5.

Ayesha and Steph announced they were becoming a family of six in March, when the Currys graced the cover of Sweet July Magazine’s debut digital issue—Ayesha’s own lifestyle publication. The glowing mom showcased her growing baby bump in a stunning photo series for the magazine.

The Ayesha’s Home Kitchen host even dished on their decision to expand the family, sharing, “For so many years, Stephen and I thought we were done. We said, ‘Three, that’s it, we’re not doing this again.’”

“And then, last year, we looked at each other and agreed we wanted to do this again,” she continued.

Ayesha went on to explain that, for her part, “the decision came from always finding myself looking around and feeling like somebody was missing.”

“I would load up the car and think, ‘Oh, I forgot something.’ But nobody was forgotten,” she elaborated. “It started to turn my brain a little bit. Maybe somebody was missing. So we set out on this journey, knowing that this would complete our family.”

With one more person on the roster, that’s got to be a lot to juggle and when Ayesha spoke with PureWow in 2020, she gave some insight on how she balances it all.

“I often tell people that you don’t know how much you can get done in a day until you have kids,” she said. “Not only has being a parent made me push myself in terms of productivity, but also in that I’m now accountable to more than myself. I am working hard to build something for my kids and to be someone who they can be proud of, which influences every decision I make professionally.”
