Proud Parents Chrissy Teigen and John Legend Capture One of Baby Esti’s First Words on Camera

Chrissy Teigen and her husband, John Legend, captured a joyful moment with their baby girl, Esti, on video—and we’re so happy to experience this huge milestone with them.

On Sunday, the father of four posted a brand-new video on Instagram of his newborn daughter, where she uttered her first words on camera. While sitting next to his wife on the couch, Legend asks his little girl, “What's my name?” Teigen, 37, also chimes in and says, “What’s daddy’s name? Dada?”

And that’s when Esti repeats the words “Dada” back to her parents. “We got it on tape, baby!” Legend, 44, joyfully says into the camera. “Caught on tape!”

Much like her proud parents, the singer’s IG followers were so happy to see Esti say her first words on camera. One person commented, “Aww…She is so precious and looking so much like her Dada I think!” Another commenter said, “She is so dang adorable.”

This is just one of many father-daughter moments that Legend has shared on social media. Earlier this month, Legend, Teigen and their four children went on a planned family vacation together. On August 3, the Grammy Award-winning singer posted a photo of himself carrying baby Esti on his shoulders. In the caption, he wrote, “Angel on my shoulders.”

And before that, the proud dad shared an adorable photo of his baby girl sitting on his lap, which was followed by a picture of him and his oldest daughter, Luna, spending time together. The caption read: “Daddy’s girls.”

Back in January, Legend and Teigen welcomed Esti (their third child) into the world. The couple announced the exciting news by sharing a photo of their two oldest children—Luna (7) and Miles (5)—holding their baby sister in their arms.

Please don’t stop sharing these wonderful moments with us, John.
