Rhett shared an adorable photo of his youngest daughter, flashing a big grin at the camera. The beloved country singer-songwriter wrote: “Lillie bug.. how are you one already? It seems like yesterday. For real. I love you so much. Every time i look at you you are smiling! Don’t ever lose that! Happy birthday to you little baby🙌”

Akins also shared a heartwarming tribute to her youngest daughter, sharing that the family celebrated Lillie’s first birthday with a hot tub party. The photo captured Rhett holding Lillie while surrounded by her three big sisters: Willa Gray (7), Ada James (5), Lennon Love (2).

Rhett and Akins shared the sweetest photos when they welcomed Baby No. 4 last year. Rhett said the couple’s baby was “7.5 pounds of pure joy,” and called his wife “my hero.” Akins shared a sweet snapshot to introduce her newborn baby, saying, “our family couldn’t be more over the moon about our littlest joy.”

Rhett and Akins, who recently celebrated their 10-year wedding anniversary, have often shared heartwarming photos of their growing family, including on birthdays, holidays, backstage moments and everything in between. Happy first birthday, Lillie Carolina!
